Who are you allowing to steal your dreams? It's kind of a trick question because no one steals your dreams. Not your spouse, parent, sibling, friend, hater, yourself. NO ONE steals your dreams, you GIVE THEM away... quite freely in fact. They're not stolen. We are born with such powerful imaginations, when we're children we spend hours daydreaming. We need to ask ourselves where has that child-like wonder gone because sometimes... we need to let our dreams lead the way! Join the FUN IS NOT A DIRTY WORD Challenge!

In this episode (cross-published with Growing Down) I talked with Ben Burgis. Ben is a philosophy instructor at Georgia State University Perimeter College, a Jacobin columnist, and the host of the “Give Them An Argument” podcast and YouTube show. He is also the author of Give Them an Argument: Logic for the Left and the forthcoming Canceling Comedians While the World Burns: A Critique of the Contemporary Left. During the session, we touched on the cosmopolitan socialism of our mutual friend, the great Michael Brooks (Rest in Power), and why his vision of an integral left could be (or maybe ought to be) the future of international socialism.

Logic, the study of how certain arguments either succeed or fail to support their conclusions, is one of the most important topics in philosophy, its importance illustrated by the common assumption that if one is being logical, they are probably right. However, the importance of logic has led to a certain amount of misuse and abuse over the years, with questionable arguments being given a veneer of reasonableness to cover up some questionable philosophical mechanics. In a way this is nothing new; since the beginning of philosophy there has been an ongoing tension between true philosophers and sophists. The form this sophistry takes is often a reflection of the particular political and cultural questions that are being debated, and so any attempt to make sense of one’s times and build any sort of popular consensus will require diving into the pseudologic and deconstructing it, hopefully with a better argument in its place. This is the project of Ben Burgis in his book Give Them an Argument: Logic for the Left (Zero Books, 2019). Both a professor of philosophy and a committed political leftist, Burgis wades through a host of contemporary examples, arguing that the common arguments for capitalism and against socialism often rely on questionable logic that can be debated. On top of this, he argues that the left needs to learn to better integrate logical thinking into its own analysis, and communicate its ideas in ways that not only maintain their rigor, but offer clarity to a wider swathe of people. Ben Burgis is a philosophy instructor at Georgia State University Perimeter College. His writing has appeared in a number of outlets including Jacobin, Areo and Quillette. He is a cohost of The Dead Pundits Society and hosts his own podcast Give Them an Argument. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The roiling tremors on the left continue, as a young progressive data analyst gets fired for... it's honestly too ridiculous to even type, but it basically involves tweeting a thing that is true. As if that weren't enough, the Poetry Foundation shows us what a truly hysterical meltdown looks like. The hosts use their intellect and savvy to try to understand the difference between two 'violent' acts: "kneeling on someone's neck until they die horrifically" and "issuing a statement that isn't quite strong enough."

In 2016, Jordan Peterson, a relatively obscure professor of psychology, released several videos on YouTube making critical remarks on political correctness and related political legislation. This would kick off a meteoric rise in fame, with sold-out live shows, podcasts, television interviews and a worldwide bestselling book. Along with his newfound fame, however, came a lot of criticism, much of it from progressive commentators, most recently in the form of Myth and Mayhem: A Leftist Critique of Jordan Peterson (Zero Books, 2020) The book features several contributions from four authors, as well as an introduction by Slavoj Zizek, who debated Peterson in 2019. It engages with Peterson’s core ideas, while offering critical analysis from leftist perspectives. Ben Burgis has a Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Miami. He is a science fiction writer whose work has appeared in publications such as Tor.com and in Prime Books. Burgis now teaches at Rutgers University.

In 2016, Jordan Peterson, a relatively obscure professor of psychology, released several videos on YouTube making critical remarks on political correctness and related political legislation. This would kick off a meteoric rise in fame, with sold-out live shows, podcasts, television interviews and a worldwide bestselling book. Along with his newfound fame, however, came a lot of criticism, much of it from progressive commentators, most recently in the form of Myth and Mayhem: A Leftist Critique of Jordan Peterson (Zero Books, 2020) The book features several contributions from four authors, as well as an introduction by Slavoj Zizek, who debated Peterson in 2019. It engages with Peterson’s core ideas, while offering critical analysis from leftist perspectives. Ben Burgis has a Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Miami. He is a science fiction writer whose work has appeared in publications such as Tor.com and in Prime Books. Burgis now teaches at Rutgers University.

On this edition of Parallax Views, a casual conversation with a rising star in the YouTube left media space, Cole James Cash of GNN (Ghetto News Network). Cole has been giving his take on current events through GNN since March of last year. He's also interviewed such personalities as Jamie Peck of the Antifada podcast, author Ben Burgis of Give Them an Argument: Logic for the Left fame, and progressive commentator Benjamin Dixon. Additionally he has tussled with such figures as Tulsi Gabbard supporter Niko House and, most infamously, black conservative broadcaster Jesse Lee Peterson. In this free-wheeling conversation Cole and I discuss rap music (before GNN Cole was a rapper), the military, American history, and much more. And yes, we do discuss his confrontation with Jesse Lee Peterson. SUPPORT PARALLAX VIEWS ON PATREON! WHERE YOU CAN HEAR... PARALLAX VIEWSTHE WEEK THAT WASCURRENT EVENTSPROGRAM

In the world of passive income, what can be better than parties and networking as part of your efforts? I know that some of us do not find a lot of pleasure in these types of events. However, for those that do, this becomes a perfect match of work with joy. You can start small and grow to substantial income and activities. Parties and Networking For Income We have all attended events that fall into this category. They may include a school dance, a professional conference, or a group vacation. Of course, some of these require a large amount of effort and time to get them set up. That would remove the passive part of this particular income source. Nevertheless, they can be automated and turned into a template that can lead to entirely passive income. You can even hire out the most onerous work. Give Them a Why The key to throwing these events is to provide a "why" that resonates with the group. You are creating a community of sorts, so start with the ideas that bind those members together. This is the concept that drives the mastermind groups that are so popular and all the groups you can find on meetup.com. The challenge in creating these events is that the members could do the same thing themselves. You want to find ways to make your events special (and desirable to attend) without having to put in too much effort. This is one of those cases where a proper balance needs to be one of your goals. That means fun-loving extroverts are far more likely to find success in these areas than a grumpy old introvert. Nevertheless, even grumpy old introverts like to have a good time. You need to be the one to provide that experience for your members.

In this episode of Zero Squared the author of Give Them an Argument: Logic For the Left takes a look at Chris Cutrone from the Platypus Affiliated Society, specifically his essay "Why Not Trump"? This is a follow up podcast after three episodes of Symptomatic Redness wherein Cutrone participated in what was billed as a "hostile" interview. By the end of this episode Burgis and I decide that, despite protestations to the contrary, Cutrone is some sort of left-accelerationist . This episode is available for patron's only.

May 13, 2012 Mother’s Day Let’s Give Them a Hand Genesis 3:20 Synopsis: Mothers are special people. They are the ones we bond with before we even know there is anyone else in the world. Eve, Adam called her because “she would be the mother of all living.” All of us trace our beginnings back to our mother’s womb. Today we want to especially honor the mothers who are here with us not only for the life they made possible for us but also for the love and sacrifice they extended to us. They have earned our “applauds,” our “assistance,” and our “assurance.” All moms are not all that they should be any more than all sons and daughters are all that they should be. Maybe your mom is already gone. Be encouraged, there are plenty of “moms” around who would love nothing more than to take you in as one of their own. Maybe, you as a mom have already lost your child or children. Be encouraged there are a lot of sons and daughters around needing your love. Reach out and grab one. Remember, moms don’t have to ask you to be your mom. Blessings! Scripture Text (NLT): Genesis 3:20 Blessings, Dr. Sonny Strange, Pastor Emmanuel Baptist Church, 1916 Overlook Ave., Jefferson City, TN 37760 Sharing Hope, Meeting Need, Through Word, Gift and Deed Web Page: www.emmanueljeffcity.com, Podcast of sermons available online.
