RE: WTF Happened To Stefan Molyneux?
I've loved so much of what he's had to say over the years... However, I always differed slightly in his ultimate stance: that we can't really do anything about it and we need to keep supporting the state until something better (magically?) happens.
I haven't watched him for awhile - but his Trump stance doesn't surprise me too much... It's within the limits of the system, and (perhaps, admittedly, my inaccurate view of) his stance would be in alignment with it.
Yeah, something that always bugged me about him was that he never really seemed to have any kind of plan--other than peaceful parenting and "defooing" people who don't agree w/you...and endlessly talking to people who have no interest in what you're saying.
He rejected political activism as well as any kind of resistance (non-violent or otherwise)...at this point, as much as I like the concept of anarchy and think that it has sound logical and moral underpinnings, I have to admit that its a totally irrelevant pipe-dream (society, if anything, is going in the OPPOSITE direction w/the support of the vast majority of the populace)--as Moly himself is admitting w/his current actions.
There is a way. Its called 'Counter Economics'.
