Thanks @ThePangburn for adding! @Buddha I was thinking it could fall under philosophy as well but a lot of philosophy content goes over my head (clearly haha) and I figured some of the friends I wanted to invite to the discord would probably feel the same but would be interested in some of the ideology topics (mainly ideological movements) also that podcast was amazing, introduced me to Coleman Hughes who I think is phenomenal
I can see where there are the hard questions of philosophy that wouldn’t pertain to specific ideologies so I retract my previous statement and I apologize. I think there is value in the distinction.
@brittm I’m only halfway through the podcast myself but him a Genn Loury alone make the listen worth while
@buddha Genn is straightforward but so correct, I think Coleman is hosting Bret on his podcast soon so I'm sure that'll be worth a listen!
Huzzzzah!
I'm going to list a couple ideologies that I disagree with and if anyone wants to engage in further debate on them just shout and I'll elaborate. I strongly disagree with the (weirdly popular) concepts of inherent racism/white privilege, wage gap and particularly employment quotas (ie "diversity" in terms of hiring more women or people of colour) and this strange theme of idolizing the victim that society seems to love these days (Jennifer Eckhart as a recent example.) Any thoughts?
Um
Ur my new favorite person
Haha thanks, also not sure these really are considered ideologies but I'm gonna go with it lol
Non Dynamic IDEOLOGY brings in many cases: https://youtu.be/K3aeWHz6Zok
The ideology of Terpenese
This dude is communicating from realms beyond normal people like us.
This one is for You my Friend Hypno !!!
dan i don't describe myself as a jew btw. to me, people who describe us as a 'race' is part of what perpetuates the anti-semitism
You don't have to worry about me persecuting or physically harming Jews.
I want them to stop cutting dick for once
if that's your only major criticism i have no disagreement
but that's hardly exclusive to jews
The rest are issues where Jews are evenly divided
I would Just say im Culturally Israeli Jewish Athiest
That's typical
yep
yeah that doesn't make much sense to me i guess
Let me clarify then, American Israeli, Jewish Athiest
I have a question though. If you're pro-Israel, are you okay with the white nationalists who want an ethnostate for their people too?
The former is my socioty and the Culture I learned from there and the latter is where i dervied my values and understanding of the world. Being an religous jew in my teens def impacted my traditions and family values so i cannot divorce it
Pro-Israel is a loaded term
