1:26:20 I hate to say it, and granted our metrics remain imperfect, also I'm not exactly a professional rocket scientist myself. But firstly, that very harsh reality, is still reality. Even if we don't want to look at it. I'm not advocating for any associated policies, for the most part. People should just realize this fact, and proceed as they deem appropriate. (Without legally subverting the core of liberal society. Which doesn't depend only on wishful thinking).

I also don't deny the existence of a so-called 'objective,' or at least "line of best fit" standard for health, and even for behavior, in theory. At least, not unless human speciation occurs.

@@CaptJackAubreyOfTheRoyalNavy I certainly agree that the way we are headed looks grim Captain, and I can well imagine that you have a more persuasive point than my own.
God, family, country is the natural order for all people. Religious or not. Non religious people just substitute something else for God. Some healthy, most... Not so much. Govt, Gaia, DEI, etc. My brother over all, unless he breaks the rules of God...

1:03:38 "I have an issue with my residual paganism" This really tells you all you need to know about this person. I don't think Ben's usual viewers can related to someone that puts actual dogmatic spirituality/religion that highly. There is a certain value to be exposed to such different views, sure, but the value might sometimes be very little.
Ben's humor is so cringy/stupid its painful to listen to. Then his questions really miss the point or reduce it to an already obvious level... like stop pretending she knows nothing about north america and have a conversation about it thats not a half joke about her being uninformed.

This is a lot of what people on the right are getting at when they talk about mangerialism as our governing structure
With society wide mental disorders, there is no winning, there is only inhabiting the disorders.

Semiosis is a great description. I've been saying the mixed metaphor is the most appropriate expression of our age. It's a similar idea.
Truth is not the antonym of lie, and belief is emotional thought, albeit an understandable state of being as an anchor in the messy waters.

Cats...
Urbanites, Russians and Muslims prefer cats, religious, hardworking farmers from the West prefer dogs.
Why is that ?
Cats are opportunistic, lurking in the shadows, taking advantage of niches within urban centres. Cats will also hunt out of boredom, for amusement, for sport. Dogs protect territory and resources while defending against intruders.
I don't know about Urbanites and Russians, but Muslims prefer cats because they are considered ritually clean by Islamic doctrine.
