saw this guy on am i racist. love him
Wilfred! One of my all-time faves!!!
Mine too mate!
I like this guest, hes really smart, thinks through things thoroughly, is as impartial is you can be.
Loved the nuanced perspective on morality! This is definitely one of my favorite calmversations!
This guy's really smart and articulate. Fantastic guest.
Great interview Wilfred is amazing. I just bought the book.
The Whitehouse cabinet meetings are now being chaired by the president's wife, not by the vice president.
How is that appropriate or even legal?
Who voted for either of them?
Why isn't it being discussed?
What use is it to discuss anything with this Progressive Democrat Administration, or with anyone with an indoctrinated Progressive Left mind? They don't listen, and they don't care what the public thinks. This hoax Biden-Harris Administration has obviously morphed into a Puppet State Shadow Goverment silent coup doing whatever it wants to. The Progressives are going to progress towards Totalitarian Left total control no matter how much the bulk of the public complains. Harris will just be another inadequate IQ puppet for this illegal, unconstitutional regime. Voting this regime out of power in all offices and rooting them out of all positions of power everywhere is what needs to be done. There is no reasoning with them, and discussion with them is useless. They do not tolerate us, and its time to not tolerate them. The Left has become an unhealthy machine that wants absolute power. They will lie, hoodwink, and deceive, but they do not really negotiate. As with any regime trying to conquer our country, we need to use all legal resources and what social pressures we have available to reject and depower the Progressive poison that is so obviously a negative for a lasting, funtioning civilization.
Interesting point on the flaws in our empath based morality.
I have often thought that Hollywood preaches really bad morality just by having us empathize with the protagonist regardless of the morality of the protagonist.
This is probably why I LOVE the "Breaking Bad" series, because the director starts us out empathizing with the protagonist in a very strong way.
Then the director slowly breaks that as the audience just can't keep excusing the evil he is doing.
Of course he cheats a little in that we then move our empathy over to Jessie, so we can see the evil.
One small correction: there is virtually zero immigration from Poland currently. Because Poland is in the EU, vast majority of Polish immigrants find themselves in Western Europe. There is no longer any economic incentive, much less a political one, to cross the big sea.
Are their universities better than ours?
Great guest!
I like this guy. He thinks how most of us use to when i was growing up.
I love this guy! He’s funny and smart. I bought his book.
England rid itself of slavery without indistrialisation. When William the Conqueror invaded in 1066 fully 40% of the population was enslaved.
The Normans introduced a tax on the sale of slaves.
By 1120 slavery had ended and an era of serfdom began. People were chattels.
Serfs were tied to a lord and required to produce a set amount for the manor house, keeping the excess as profit.
Much like we do today.
Well, first of, 40% was not enslaved, unless you consider serfdom enslavement.
Very few times in history have more than 10% of a population been slaves, because any higher and you get a slave revolt that can win.
Second, it was not taxes that ended slavery. Had it been, only England would have ended it.
But the movement from slavery to serfdom happen all across Europe.
The reason it ended was because it turns out you make more money if the people working under you are free.
Basically, because they micromanage themself you do not need to pay somebody to control them.
This is also the reason serfdom ended, because the free marked (at least in the west) is more efficient than serfdom.
This is what most socialists, Wef and other globalists people seem to not get with their great reset project.
If you want a society that work hard, you give them freedom and ownership.
They still think slavery would produce more, if they where in charge.
The only reason why current day China can produce more than Western countries, is because we have taxed factories in the west to make it impossible to make money. This was done to make the factories go over sea, so that other nations would gain the money, and trade would make them less likely to start war. (Turns out, as we can see in Ukraine and with Chinas neighbors, this strategy does not work either).
So, you have 2 globalist projects, doomed to fail.
First, they want to make the west slaves to the state, to make us work more. Even if every time tried, this does not work and it only work now because they implemented taxes to make it impossible to run a business in the west.
Second, they thought that if they made everybody, every nation trade, nobody would start a war because it would be irrational. Turns out, all people are not rational so the world peace is about to end,, hard.
@haraldbredsdorff2699 To add a caveat to your last point: Leaders are fairly rational. However, economics is only one aspect of a nation's interest. Sometimes nations will trade economic advantages for advantages in let's say, sovereignty or security.
@@henrylicious I am not even sure, I would consider most leaders fairly rational.
A majority seem to think they can make socialism work, if they where in charge.
If you ask them, they would not be able to explain why all the other attempts failed, but they still think they know how to make it work.
And then you have the religious leaders who think God is on their side, so they can not lose.
Because, if God did not want them to do whatever they want, he would not allowed them to become leaders.
They seemed to have missed the part about free will, that God allow us to do bad things, even if that is not what he want.
5:08 Taking land by force and killing defeated enemy soldiers wasn't limited to Nazis. That's what the Soviets did in Poland. Why weren't they the bad guys?
Here here.
I like Wilfred and great to see him again. Thank you both for a nice calm 🐈

Love Wilfred Reilly. He was great with Glenn Loury and John McWhorter some time ago.
Im not sure anyone can reach John McWhorter anymore. He has gone Left beyond reason.
Smart guy but listening to him feels a bit like being yelled at by ChatGPT
Totally agree with him on immigration
I subscribed years ago, found this episode, realized I was unsubbed, then resubscribed. Love you.
Oh man, that squirrel's in big trouble.
did you see how the cat didn't really put much effort into it, nor did the squirrel really run like it truly feared for its life. I think those two have done this dance before and it's just for funsies.
Naw, squirrel's fine.
8:24 He's only talking about Hitler in terms of expansionism, empire and conquest. But most people find the 3rd Reich horrifying because of their views on eugenics and the systematic decimation of an entire generation of people. A whole culture of people, who had a distinct language, customs, music, was nearly erased from the world. And it was done by regular everyday people for the most part. It turned a peaceful multicultural society into a racial hierarchy with a k- ing machine for the "lower" rungs.
This man's initial statements (not his statements of fact, but his value-interpretations based on those facts) make him sound like a moral lunatic...
Reilly is a great Twitter follow too
His worldview will always allow liberalism to win.
It's alturism not sympathy/empathy.
The idea your state can afford endless resource expenditure and it is your job to tell them which expenditure is going to make you feel better.
TIK History has recently released a video on what he calls a "disturbing pattern" among totalitarians.
I will say, it is one of the few TIK videos where I think he is wrong.
He give the responsibility to over altruism that he point out is strongest in protestant nations.
Had he been correct, these revolutions would mostly happen in those protestant nations, but communist win more in any other culture,, in the world.
Same way communist are wrong when they think "late stage capitalism" will lead to communism. If that was true, other nations would have had it first.
They dominate South America and Africa, large parts of Asia, middle east and ortodox Russia. Non of witch had the over altruism of North Europe.
Basically, he has found Objectivism, and the Objectivist love to blame Protestantism, for some strange reason.
I wish I knew why they hate Protestantism. Every time they have been persecuted, it have been organizations that started in other religions. But they love to blame Protestantism, maybe because it is the only religion who do not punch back.
@@haraldbredsdorff2699 That and the Js they like to blame. I never understood it either, unless it's some twisted form of envy.
I love "wallet of Damocles".
IQ is arrived at undependant of culture or level of education.
It is suppose to. But he is correct that many of the test, are currently culture and education based.
But that is because they added things to the test.
Example the "IQ" test at American universities, test for language skills.
That, should not be on the IQ tests, but it is.
@@haraldbredsdorff2699I'm not familiar with how the US tests IQ, but doesn't vocabulary size correlate with IQ? Could that be the rationale behind it?
@@antalpoti Their is a correlation in that people with high IQ often have high vocabulary,
but not everybody with high vocabulary have high IQ.
So, they are not testing the IQ, and therefore get a higher score on people who are just good at memorizing.
Now, it could be just them trying to make new tests, without checking if it works.
Or, if you want to be conspiratorial, it could be them fattening up the number to make certain races look better on the test, than they really are.
I have unfortunately come to the later conclusion, when the same people who kept claiming IQ was not real, also claimed they scored high on the new tests.
I had heard Reilly in other interviews, so I knew he was smart, but I'd never heard him long-form like this before. Wow! Talk about intellectual horsepower. I would believe if his IQ were 160.
That being said, I appreciated some of what he had to say and found other parts somewhat glib. I appreciated his discussion of morality at the beginning, if for no other reason than he was speaking confidently about something that many people would disagree with.
I agree with him on the principle of mass illegal immigration being a huge problem, but found his discussion of the future lacking. He sounds like a total bugman when opining with such optimism on the use of technolgies like AI, Neuralink, and gene editing. Acting as though one could introduce those changes to a human population and expecting that we would still be left with beings called humans is a total neglect of the spiritual and wholistic nature of humans. Does it not occur to the transhumanists that one of the reasons that so many people are unhappy today is because we are so innundated with technology, yet it doesn't actually make our lives better?
I also question the optimism on looking forward given the amount of mass immigration in the West. After watching the world for the last 20 years, I think it's difficult to ignore culture, and more importantly, the role of IQ in this discussion. There is a reason why notions like individual rights and free societies were generated by philosophers in western Europe, and really almost exclusively in England and Scotland. The ideals that founded the US do not seem to export well to other societies, and I'm not sure how much social engineering can fix that. Importing millions of people who do not understand those principles nor really care for them will not allow the US as we know it to continue.
In the UK that squirrel is an evil immigrant!!😢😢😢 it eats the Red natives!!
This has got to be the smartest man alive. He thinks about things exactly like I do.
That's one of the most American blokes I've ever heard. His book on the modern sexual dynamics car crash would be legit fascinating, I think it would be very popular.
That cat at the start could have caught that squirrel multiple times. Clearly just playing with it.
Haha, yeah. I'd imagine it's likely that he's "caught" one before, then quickly let it go after getting a fast warning bite from his would be captive lol. Squirrels are downright feisty - and the cat's behavior (sorry B, can't think of his name rn) suggests to me that he's learned that first hand. Even still, no cat can resist giving chase when the opportunity presents itself hehe..
The cats and the squirrels have been playing tag all month. I’m sure the cat would eat the squirrel, given the chance (I have evidence of this), but there’s something lackadaisical about their antics the last few weeks.
Apparently, discussing squirrel toes and their potential flavour may be verboten. My cat will be upset when he finds out. 😂
I didn't hear whatever Benjamin said about the "woke right" but it sounds as though they're attempting to trans the meaning of woke. 🤷♂️
The right has begun to cancel people who don't say what they like, too. Horseshoe political theory, I guess. The extremes bend around and meet.
alright, this person is oozing common sense.
There is no housing shortage, there is an unreasonably high cultural expectation of what housing is. It is expected to be an investment for retirement, it is expected to reflect your self image of your worth. Housing is no longer seen as a home for a family.
By regulating credit the expectations of oeople can be lowered and they will respect and value what rhey have.
Well, there are also regulatory roadblocks to new housing being produced.
Inequality is not de facto inequity.
Squirrel: 1, Kitty: 0
Nice
Reilly on IQ "You are testing illiterate shepherds and you get what youre gonna get", implying that a person who cannot read is not necessarily less intelligent than one that can its just that they "do bad at testing and stuff!". Nonono.
Maybe there is a difference between someone who cannot read and someone who wasn't taught to read.
I think that is what he was implying. Lack of education doesn't equate with lack of intelligence.
I mean, you do get academic types who dismiss farmers as "dumb" or "uneducated" but probably not only have absolutely zero idea how to run a corn farm, but also couldn't be bothered to do so. See the CHAZ/CHOP communal garden as an example.
@@SgtBuck01 I’m still puzzled as to how Chaz was allowed to just happen in the first place. Random people just taking over a city block ? 2020 was so strange
Moose-o-lini that frothy pasta dish.
I thought it was The San Francisco Treat!
So Wilfred doesn't think unregulated mass immigration is a means of growing gdp and creating a black market in underpaid workers?
He doesn't think it's in the interest of the party in office to allow unregulated mass immigration?
In the UK asylum seekers must have passed through France to get to the UK and the UN's convention alliws them to send them back to France - but the UK government doesn't do it.
Furthermore, the flood of immigrants into the UK is majority documented, invited in by the government. For me this proves it is in the government's interest to import people - probably for economic reasons.
Our overlords today consider us protein
MMM, overlord.
@1:08:35 He has no idea what he's talking about. China can't "call in" the US Treasuries they own. China would simply allow them to roll-off and not purchase new ones to replace them. But then, they will be stuck with a bunch of dollars that they can't use, except to purchase other dollar-denominated assets.
Also, if they stop buying US Treasuries, the value of the Renmimbi will have to go up quite a bit, since the US and their largest trading partner, by far. That would slowly give US domestic manufacturers an advantage over China, slowly reducing the trade flows of dollars to China, which would *reduce* our dependence on China to "finance" our debt (they do not actually finance our debt).

Yes, most humans throughout history were -- and still largely are -- different gradations of evil. Just because they adhered to their cultures doesn't make them benign, and just because codified norms vary between cultures doesn't mean there's no objective differentiation between moral good or evil.

Okay. The only thing I disagree with is “kamala will win.”
NOPE.
Trump is ahead in the country.
Idc what Nate Silver says.

SQUIRREL!!!!
You are confusing empathy and sympathy.
Not a fan of the moral relativism. 🙄 I’ve seen him talk several times, and he NEVER had these shitty WW2 takes before. Not sure if he’s trying to pander to a certain audience, or trying to get buzz from having a hot take on this issue?
Thank you for not snubbing me by introducing a "special extra" segment for "members".
Being interested, and cancelled from future employment by the HR mafia, I genuinely can't afford to "subscribe" to my ten or so regular channels.
Wherever Kissin goes, trouble follows. He is establishment cope writ large.

FINALLY! I yanked myself off of X to listen as I clean.
