maybe just offended audience members flipping out

2018-06-22 23:46:03 UTC  

Yes they get tied up in semantics though. Sometimes hard to follow their back and forth

2018-06-22 23:46:11 UTC  

Like not the content but the purpose

2018-06-22 23:46:15 UTC  

between harris and peterson? i'd agree

2018-06-22 23:46:23 UTC  

it's hard to follow them and not for lack of comprehension

2018-06-22 23:46:44 UTC  

I can understand what they are saying but it’s hard to understand why they are going so deep on certain things like “what is truth”

2018-06-22 23:46:52 UTC  

For like an hour

2018-06-22 23:46:53 UTC  

douglas murray is mediating, which itself should be fun

2018-06-22 23:47:00 UTC  

@Anomie I've read the 12 rules for life and maps.

2018-06-22 23:47:03 UTC  

They need a mediator

2018-06-22 23:47:06 UTC  

yeah. before i go to the debate, i'll be re-listening to their previous talks

2018-06-22 23:47:09 UTC  

Moderator or whatever

2018-06-22 23:47:15 UTC  

ahh nice one ppf

2018-06-22 23:47:22 UTC  

we'll talk about maps as i'm reading it i guess

2018-06-22 23:47:31 UTC  

I'm currently reading dale carnegie

2018-06-22 23:47:41 UTC  

good book

2018-06-22 23:47:51 UTC  

is that the name of the book?

2018-06-22 23:48:02 UTC  

or is he one of the carnegies

2018-06-22 23:48:15 UTC  

The book is titled How to win friends and influence people

2018-06-22 23:48:19 UTC  

ahhh ye

2018-06-22 23:48:20 UTC  

by dale carnegie

2018-06-22 23:48:33 UTC  

that title keeps popping up for me

2018-06-22 23:48:39 UTC  

maybe i should get it at some point

2018-06-22 23:48:39 UTC  

good read so far

2018-06-22 23:48:57 UTC  

it's a book about influence, right?

2018-06-22 23:49:08 UTC  

kinda like the title suggests but not as basic

2018-06-22 23:49:29 UTC  

forget i ever made that false distinction

2018-06-22 23:49:33 UTC  

lol

2018-06-22 23:49:55 UTC  

Im in chapter 5 right now and so far the best way I can summarize this book is to do unto others as you would have them do unto you

2018-06-22 23:51:00 UTC  

alright cool. i'll keep it in mind for the future. but right now i'm stacked for books :-/ maps of meaning comes next, but i've got a to-read list longer than a leonard cohen song. it's so intimidating i almost don't want to do any of it

2018-06-22 23:51:24 UTC  

That one is good Ppf. The how to win friends. Have you read the four agreements?

2018-06-22 23:51:38 UTC  

no not yet jay is that another one of dale's books?

2018-06-22 23:52:10 UTC  

No I can’t remember the author but it’s a good one that aligns a lot with how to win friends

2018-06-22 23:52:22 UTC  

And also teaches a practical way to achieve perfect peace

2018-06-22 23:53:21 UTC  

Through “four agreements” with yourself. Always try your best, don’t make assumptions, be impeccable with your word, and don’t tale anything personal

2018-06-22 23:55:48 UTC  

that second one is tough. it's one that i struggle with. consciously, i can guarantee in certain situations i won't make assumptions, like with other people - i take them as a blank slate no matter what i might of heard or how they dress etc. common courtesy i reckon. but when we talk that blank slate starts to fill up with things; insights about whoever i'm talking with etc. i'm too hard on myself about how much of that is assumption, because i'm trying to steer clear for practical reasons but... assumptions are a tricky one

2018-06-22 23:58:37 UTC  

ppf, any thoughts on firing up them subreddits?

2018-06-23 00:00:14 UTC  

and are you affiliated with jesse and the show in any way?

2018-06-23 00:03:24 UTC  

Ppf runs this discord and moderates the superchat for the youtube. I’m sure he does things for bond as well.

2018-06-23 00:04:02 UTC  

And a bunch of other stuff I don’t know about yet lol

2018-06-23 00:05:34 UTC  

yeah. i suggested he open up some subreddits for jesse. /r/thefallenstate is still up for taking
