Stefan Molyneux explores philosophical questions in this episode, beginning with the issue of creating a universal moral theory that lacks operational tests. He examines Universally Preferable Behavior (UPB) as an alternative to flawed moral frameworks that encourage violence.He points out the value of keeping moral philosophy simple, particularly when teaching children, and questions the vagueness often found in ethical debates.

The episode ends with a look at men's responsibilities in building positive family interactions through generosity and kindness, combining philosophical ideas with everyday advice on morality and relationships.Questions:"Serious question:"Can a moral theory qualify as ‘universal' if it cannot be expressed as a fully operational test, one that produces the same judgment regardless of who performs it, where, or under what incentives?"In other words:"Is UPB decidable?"If so, what is the operational test by which two independent observers, following your method step-by-step, would reach the same moral verdict in every case, including disagreements about property, reciprocity, and externalities?""How to coparent with a woman with intense and violent BPD? Young kids involved.""Why does a man who hates academia have 'MA in history' in his Twitter description?""This I think is the deepest question possible or I mean all questions will eventually lead to this one:"Why should anything exist?""Is morality objective or subjective?"How do we determine objective morality?""If a woman was raped in the past, should she be honest with the man she's dating ?""Is a pre-emptive strike, such as the one in the movie Minority Report; convicting a man or woman of a future crime; is that moral?""I got a question from a vegan that asked:"Why should the question if it's moral or immoral to kill an animal, depend on the animals capacity to understand morality and not just our own ? "As someone that eats meat, I didn‘t really know a good answer.""Should UPB replace religion? "Would it be a religion for everyone or just libertarians?""Many men work a lot of hours or away from home. Is it 'fair' for them to not spend as much time as possible with their kids when they can be home, to make sure they are being raised properly by their wife? (not all hobbies, unnecessary projects, sports with buddies in the man cave, etc 'because I work so much and kids are the mom's job!')"Why do some men leave all the parenting to the mother, then complain that the kids don't listen and turned out bad. Seems like many men relinquish their parenting responsibilities and blame the women. "I understand working takes you away (I was working single mom over a decade) but when I wasn't at work, my life was making sure kids had everything and I taught them above their grade level anything I though they could understand. PS I'm not talking about sharing housework.""Do we have free will, or is everything determined?""What was it that made you realize your wife was the one?"SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Cult Season continues, and much like Stefan himself, you may have hoped this would go away after Part 1. Unfortunately, like all persistent internet hauntings, Molyneux has returned. And this time, Chris and Matt venture even deeper into the Moly-Hole, a place where truth is redefined, callers are slowly gaslit into existential confusion, and every philosophical insight is served with the overwhelming scent of narcissism and emotional manipulation.We return to the joyful world of Stefan's caller-domination rituals, courtesy of Twitter Spaces, where he continues his life's work of berating strangers and stroking his own ego while insisting he alone possesses the True Meaning of Truth.Listeners can thrill to the culmination of the Truth Call™ from Part 1, where the philosophically inclined young father is sucked further into Stefan's epistemological meat grinder as Stefan tries to uncover the imaginary psychoanalytic roots of the caller's ongoing defiance. From there, we are introduced to Caller No. 3 for just a sprinkling of the patented victim-blaming and misogyny of the Molyneux Method.Finally, Chris and Matt offer their overall thoughts on Molyneux's long and illustrious career as an internet arsehole. They conclude that while Stefan has managed to cycle through platforms, ideologies, and degrees of baldness, he has maintained absolute fidelity to the same psychological tactics—gaslighting, projection, undermining, hypocrisy, and the uncanny ability to make even a throwaway joke feel incredibly creepy.So that's it for now… collectively we can escape the Moly-Hole, carefully sealing the tunnel entrance as we leave.

Stefan Molyneux explores the debate on corporal punishment, specifically spanking, within child-rearing practices. He examines the moral implications of using force against children compared to adults, arguing that while violence is morally unacceptable in adult interactions, society still permits spanking. Molyneux challenges the justification of corporal punishment by questioning the assumption that children are incapable of reason and drawing comparisons with mentally impaired individuals. He critiques the idea that spanking is a necessary preventive measure for worse behaviors, advocating instead for positive reinforcement models over negative consequences. This discussion highlights the detrimental effects of physical punishment on children's understanding of empathy and respect, ultimately calling for a reevaluation of disciplinary methods towards more compassionate approaches in parenting.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Welcome back to Cult Season, where we continue our sincere attempt to make you feel a little bit worse about the world and everything in it.This week, we turn to Stefan Molyneux, online pioneer, prolific content creator, and self-proclaimed most popular philosopher in the world. Alternatively his wikipedia entry describes him as "an Irish-born Canadian white nationalist podcaster and proponent of conspiracy theories, white supremacy, scientific racism, and the men's rights movement." Charming...One thing is for sure: Molyneux is the only man alive who can turn literally any question into a monologue that combines demonic liberals, cutting off friends and family, and female reproductive choices. A true Renaissance man for people who hate Renaissance values.In this first episode we take a brief tour through the Molyneux Expanded Universe™, which includes some infamous clips from his early days as the creator of an online 'philosophy' cult themed around anti-spanking, anarcho-capitalism, and misogyny. We also cover his pivot to MAGA apologetics and overt white nationalism and finally to late-stage Molyneux, where he now lurks in Twitter Spaces, berating callers and insisting the world is populated by demon-ridden NPCs gleefully urinating on their moral superiors.Look forward to learning about his extensive rhetorical techniques, which include thin-skinned narcissism, a penchant for violent metaphors usually featuring urine and anal torture, his constant demand that listeners cut off their families and, of course, his favourite claim: that anyone who disagrees with him is a man-whore NPC who wants to kill you.Also featuring:A Weinstein cameo (because of course)Chris recounting the proto–Decoding the Gurus origin story involving a Facebook post and some early Molyneux contentAnd a rare chance to hear Matt physically wince at a Rocky Horror cold openIf you've ever wanted to hear a preening narcissist berate his listener for raising entirely reasonable points... well, this is the episode for you.Scott Adams should be careful, a new contender has emerged for his crown...Part 2 coming soon, assuming we survive this one.LinksFreedomain Radio 6162: The Most Frightening Fact!
