If the new right scares you, understand that this is what they want, they want you direct the deep rage, fear and horror that lies within us all towards them, once again the only decent/constructive response is compassion and to regather your focus to doing and making. Dont oppose their right to express themselves but try to succed with your own mission. The act of doing possesses an allure which very few can resist even the new right. I know some may see it as tolerance for the intolerant but there is no alternative especially for the new right. The future belongs to those who can accomodate their supposed atagonists best. The value of principals may appear clouded and unclear but the sun does eventual shine and it is then that we see who cultivated their garden and maintained their roots.
The last 10/15 or so minutes of this discussion is what's worth the listen! Everything leading up to it is necessary. But then is where the energy becomes what I'd like to hear more of...!!:)
I'm pretty sure Ryan holiday won't see this, but just in case (?) Ryan: In one of you lasts episodes you said that your most "audience successful" content was related to stoicism and self improvement, enhance performance and going deep into stoic principles to challenge yourself both mentally and physically. In the same episode you were just a little bit "concerned" that you were lately interested on how stoic principles (and Justice in particular) articulates with a more broader philosophical and social spectrum. You are totally aware that is not the kind of content that "captured" the majority of your audience. I think that using stoicism in this "broader" area is not only interesting, but also reasonable. Of course that improving yourself is important, but, as long as we progress, our stoic definition of "self" should expand as well. Then the "self" could include family, community, animals, nature. TLDR: I really like how your content is sometimes taking broader concepts into account, and I'm really interested to see what's next. Keep up with the good work 👍
Great meditation to start the day=] It would be interesting to examine the squatters rights laws of California and the squatters laws in Spain and Western Europe- could be some similarities in the real estate implications there. I know that the "Romani Tribes" that are in Western Europe have carved out some pretty innovative real estate solutions (we did a great business case study on Romani dwellings & the "Romani Oikos" at my business school in Spain.) Great chat on "the troubles" in Northern Ireland. That is why Queens University of Belfast is the preeminent place to study Peace and Diplomacy studies and has attracted politicians like George Mitchell and Bill and Hillary Clinton. I hope that one day the Protestants and Catholics realize that they have more to gain economically by peace, and stability. Personally I try to seek out those geographies where there are ideological "fissures" as often being the birthplace for innovative solutions. A lot of what you are describing from both polar political extremes is also encompassed by a term in economics of "disincentivization". Michael Porter & Katherine Gehl have an amazing book called "The Politics Industry" which allows us to take a better look at this vertical. A lot of foreigners find it odd that we define ourselves as Americans as non religious or secular, but also have the word "God" on the legal tender. political-innovation.org/
wish this guy would go on more podcasts. this was great
There's nothing quite as fun as listening to people who know Jack about agriculture pontificating about the loss of the family farm.
I was sitting here thinking these exact words. Even weirder when he comments on his neighbor living in a trailer like he’s some peasant

Yes. Changes your relationship with your self. That's why, stoicism.💜
Cool guy.

This is the most INFJ podcast of all time. I dig it. My Carl Jung enthusiasts know what I'm talkin about.
So I guess my comment is a month too late.
A one day event. 🤔👎
