A wonderful interview. Its great to hear someone championing "looking at the facts, free speech, and decisions based on the reality of situations". I had never heard of Konstantin before yesterday, when I came across his You Tube interview on GB News, warning against backing Putin into a corner. I am now following Konstantin on Facebook.
It's very true that emotional response to logical and fact based argument reflects poor standing on the topic and the desire to shut down the conversation altogether. Great interview.
Great interview! I love Triggernometry and I am sure that it will be as big as Konstantin hopes. It was the Posie Parker interview that led me to Trig, I have been hooked since then and have watched most of the back-catalogue. Every episode I think that someone must surely have done a proper interview with Konstantin but I could only find short clips - this was what I was looking for.
Great interview. Konstantin is a bright fellow. The show has great production value, but the light on Konstantin looked green, so he had green tints on his face. Congrats.
Here’s my poetic take on what Kisin was saying about how to determine what’s real: What's real What's not Is reality just objective physicality Or is it really shared subjectivity If you see what I see And we agree It's real If you sense what I sense And we have consensus It's real Now imagine a world without you and me Or any of our kind With a mind inclined to find Would the ground and all around cease to be Or would the only thing missing be What we call reality
Ahhhh... the pre-Covid handshake at the end. Good times. Great interview. That location is fantastic. The lighting is great. And the editing and sound levels were very good. Like others I enjoyed hearing Konstantin's point of view on things directly instead of trying to suss them out while he interviews others. I disagree with him on more than I thought. Fun and interesting.
I still handshake anyone that is open to it. Did wear the mask only when it was absolutely necessary: Shopping, Official institutions, etc. I respect anyone's opinion as long as is not interfering with my civic liberties.
Hopefully your legacy wil be that the west should be protective of their freedom ,as it seems to be speedily eroded daily. You bring it to our attention we must wake up before it’s too late. Love all your debates and discussions. Keep it up. Respect.
I'm surprised at Konstantin's description of Left and Right. It's not about the Right being sensible and the Left being concerned about those who are suffering. The Right cares about people who are suffering and have fallen behind as much if not more than the Left. In America anyway, conservatives give more money by percentage and volunteer more time to help people than the Left. The difference is in using the government to help people. That is a huge difference. The Right feels government is the worst way to help people. The Left thinks you have to MAKE people help other people by force.
The example you provide of a Christian fundamentalist 'street-preacher' weaponising the Bible against gay men, has actually happened - on numerous occasions - in Taunton, the County Town of Somerset. Three times I have gone to the defence of Mr Michael Overd in the SOMERSET COUNTY GAZETTE, against the views of other gay men who feel this man should not be debated-with, but imprisoned for "hate speech". I'm gay; and I also have the theological acumen to debate with the man: although debating with any fundamentalist (including Richard Dawkins!) is nigh on impossible. I think one of the people who had him arrested for "hate speech" was a gay police officer! I wonder whether that same 'complainer' would be as brave countering someone who doesn't just want to preach at him; but to throw him from a high building!
Wow. Surprised that Kisin said at 1:08:20 that truth is a collective delusion. That's postmodernism isn't it, to deny the existence of objective truth? But in the following minute or two, he didn't really go far down that road, and ended up seemingly supporting science and the idea of the existence of reality after all, so I don't know exactly what he believes now.
15 февраля 1919 года был первый день трехдневного погрома в украинском городе Проскурове, позже названном Хменницким, в котором было убито около 1500 еврейских жителей города. Убийственные нападения казаков по указанию их атамана Семосенко из войска Семена Петлюры имели целью убить как можно больше еврейского народа.
The problem with Capitalism is quite simple........GREED! In the past, before the 'reign' of Margaret Thatcher, we had 'public policy' measures, and 'City traditions' which kept Capitalism in check, to some extent. Mrs Thatcher - and even moreso, that dim half-wit, opportunist, John Major dismantled all these measures which were there to protect us from our own worst excesses. The obvious example is that JOHN MAJOR actually regarded it as a human ethical 'advance' to establish a National Lottery, and make gambling more acceptable. Then there was the general dismantling of the cohesion in society: selling off Nationally-owned assets; so that you could buy your gas from the electricity companies, and electricity from the gas companies, and coal from nobody! Alcohol is sold at filling-stations; even though it is illegal to drink, and drive. All of this moral confusion has led to a decline in our public standards: which certain people within our society are only too happy to exploit. This links nicely to your later comment about the British being a "generally tolerant and welcoming society". That is true! But, there is one imported, 7th Century 'religion' which is abusing our hospitality: and we do HATE that 'religion' (if we have educated ourselves about it)!
And the problem with Communism is quite simple: after they run out of Capitalist money they resort on forced work , lack of civic freedom , pogroms, political prisons, eliminations through mass executions, torture, etc That was my life, more or less, until my 25th anniversary. Ever since I discovered that compared with the shithole Communism was , Capitalism is almost Heaven on Earth. If by some twisted indoctrination you think otherwise, while I have to respect your opinion, I would have loved for you to be anywhere in the early eighties in any Varshow-pack Socialist Countries. To come home, after you almost bought your rationed bread, but you were a bit too late because the Communist Secretary of your factory wanted that you put in 3 more hours of "voluntary" work... And you come home, and there is no warm water, or even no water (the reason you keep your bathroom tub filled with reserve water), and you share your wife's rations with some mercy leftovers from your old neighbours next door... - Capitalism is the best human society created, and in its today form, "tamed" by social-democracy, gives the absolute best life for the common people in the entire History of mankind !
Hi Konstantin. I'm a relatively new fan or trigonometry. On the gas weapon in Ukraine. You must know as well as me that this is a staged setup from western interests. NATO have given actors in Ukraine the golden ticket as they did in Syria. This time they have learnt their lesson as in Syria nobody could understand why the Syrian army would use such weapons as they were already winning the war and had no need to use the very weapons that would draw the Western powers in. So this time they have given inaccurate reports of Russian progress, in some cases mistaking tactics for something else. It makes no difference me saying anything because I'm a nobody but Konstantin, your not. Whereas even if the MSM took any notice of me they would dismiss me as a Putin apologist they would fined it more difficult to do the same with you. Please look at this and publicise the possible truth of the matter that in effect we could be bumped into a nuclear war for no good reason at all.
Unbelievably good interview. Was very surprised by the clear thinking of Konstantin. Good job.
Oh wow. I have been a big fan of Triggernometry for a whille. What a treat to get to know K.K. In all his intellectual glory.
A wonderful interview. Its great to hear someone championing "looking at the facts, free speech, and decisions based on the reality of situations". I had never heard of Konstantin before yesterday, when I came across his You Tube interview on GB News, warning against backing Putin into a corner. I am now following Konstantin on Facebook.
Konstantin is spot on with his views and who said Russians don't have a sense of humour I think he's hilarious great interview 👍
My ex is Russian. I said the same to her. The response was enlightening
" do you know anything about our history? What do we have to smile about?"
Konstantin is great. I'm German. When I'm asked my opinion, people don't know if I mean it or if I'm joking. I like to keep it that way ;-)
Brilliant conversation, this is what we haven't seen on the mainstream media in the last few years.
Dead Grubber glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the positive feedback! Very much appreciated! Shared your comment on my Instagram Stories 😊👍🏼❤️🧡💛
It's very true that emotional response to logical and fact based argument reflects poor standing on the topic and the desire to shut down the conversation altogether. Great interview.
Very impressive: intelligence, depth and control.
Great interview! I love Triggernometry and I am sure that it will be as big as Konstantin hopes.

Every episode I think that someone must surely have done a proper interview with Konstantin but I could only find short clips - this was what I was looking for.
The section between 30:00mins and 36:00mins is exactly how I have felt about things for a long time. Konstantin is somebody I can identify with.
Go Kostja! Our guy in Britain!)
Great interview. Konstantin is a bright fellow. The show has great production value, but the light on Konstantin looked green, so he had green tints on his face. Congrats.
Here’s my poetic take on what Kisin was saying about how to determine what’s real:
What's real
What's not
Is reality just objective physicality
Or is it really shared subjectivity
If you see what I see
And we agree
It's real
If you sense what I sense
And we have consensus
It's real
Now imagine a world without you and me
Or any of our kind
With a mind inclined to find
Would the ground and all around cease to be
Or would the only thing missing be
What we call reality
Excellent interview. I liked the ease & absence of pomp on the part of the interviewer
Need this guy on Joe Rogan.
Interesting and informative interview! Appreciated. Yes, I subscribed.
Ahhhh... the pre-Covid handshake at the end. Good times. Great interview. That location is fantastic. The lighting is great. And the editing and sound levels were very good.

I respect anyone's opinion as long as is not interfering with my civic liberties.
I’ve never seen Scotland represented as sunny. Looks beautiful.
I especially love his 'Russian interference' video
Hopefully your legacy wil be that the west should be protective of their freedom ,as it seems to be speedily eroded daily. You bring it to our attention we must wake up before it’s too late. Love all your debates and discussions. Keep it up. Respect.
Watch Trig didn’t know KK history,fascinating.
.
KK is a great human
Very inspiring.
Zuby is a lovely man , thoughtful , tolerant , and reasonable ... Folks , check his podcast out . You well be happy you did ...
Great guy, have been in touch with him a number of times. I’ll have him on once things settle down.
Excellent interview
Konstantin looking very comfortable in that chair.
Great interview, I am a conservative unlike konstantin, but I too hate political correctness so much
Mi Duneyev thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 😊🙏🏼

In a free society we *risk* being offended : people don't always *intend* to
Oh look my mirror imaging . This guys is the smartest in the world
Lovely. But missing Francis's awkward laugh. :(
Konstantin rocks.
KK is one of the modern greats!
Brexit was about regaining our UK back and not being controlled by another people of Europe we can be a proud Nation again.
I'm German I love this guy, his Humor his touch to be political incorrect.
Konstantin... dude... how could you cheat on Francis like this? I'm not angry, just disappointed!
44:10 Yes, that‘s it!
Who else noticed the host barely moved during this 1,5 hour convo?
😂👍🏼 The cameras are static so I’ve learned to be very still!

This interview was all a bit too fawning and uncritical for me.
Alex Mclennan the purpose of our interviews isn’t to be ‘critical’, it’s to inspire and encourage thought.
Thanks for your comment.
