What a hypocrit White men don't like "wokeism" because they don't like to give away their unearned power Like we have seen with the Israel-Gaza war Universities especially in the US don't like truth Critizing genocide is a "crime", at least antisemitic Yet, supporting genocide is a fast way to power, at least if the genociders are those in power and their close allies Comment from : @annasillanpaa1111 |

The fact that liberal students are willing to turn in their peers over offensive language isn't that shocking, really, when you consider that they are also the most likely to cut ties between family members and friends over political differences Comment from : @neondystopian |

I wonder if David Starkey is involved in the new university Comment from : @peterhind |
|
Great discussion, I loved' Mr Ferguson's discussion on how to use history and how the current atmosphere does the exact opposite, sadly Though I will say, in my interpretation, Mr Ferguson was doing some of that when discussing the Covid pandemic and the lack of leadership Nevertheless it was a very good dialogue I knew Lex was going to ask about the Russian writers You could almost see that question dancing in his head Cheers! Comment from : @artieboy24 |

I beg to differ on the notion that one doesn't get better at math as they're older I started coding in my 40s and noticed a profound increase in my mathematical ability Comment from : @je25ff |

2:09:31 ''why''; I often recognize the dangers of expressed opinion offered to too large an audience Conjecture without receipts allowed to balloon is a magical methodology in the Fridman portfolio Ferguson's loaded subtle language reveals hints at cabalistic manipulation with fine drawn intrigue Lex and Nial truly push the limits in this extraordinary episode Ironically, the YouTube dissemination infrastructure, with its interminable counter-intuitive chicanery, ultimately stimulates optimal engagement from true patriots who recognize the duplicity for what it truly isbrbr2:40:40 ''good luck with Putin'' Lex, use the secret handshake He is a likable enough mass murderer Comment from : @jackreacher |
|
Nial Ferguson writes and spews lies He is not the resistance - this whole show and platform is a Lie Disgusting Comment from : @19battlehill |
|
Hind sight is same as looking into crystal ball to tell the future Both are NOT 20/20! It is imagination, just imagination with as much reliability as a fairy tale and less than a myth? Comment from : @eaton55r |

Professors now encourage silence, deception and there are social pressures to 'go along' I can't see how erecting a new building(s) helps Comment from : @eaton55r |

This man is so full of shit he's such a victim Comment from : @quertianmotto |

First money was on sticks cut in half not clay 😊 Comment from : @MattyRichDataNelson |
|
Trust not only of debtor and debtee but trust of money changers who manipulate the value of money that can destroy the trust of people in money This trust is not justified which is why A Hamilton invented a system of economics to ensure justice for all Ellen Brown includes Bitcoin in the American system naturally as this medium is not much different from other mediums Comment from : @fernly2 |

There's an argument to be made to studying literature while studying medicine, it'd help keep the doctor sane with all they deal with and if money's an issue, that's another argument Comment from : @larrymn333 |

I wonder if you can fix the critical mass of working oedipal mothers with a new institution They said "Smash the patriarchy," and it's working Unfortunately, tough love, meritocracy, and risk taking are pretty patriarchal brbrDad let you climb that tree, but Mom wants you safe Not because she's evil, but because she plays a different role and values different things Comment from : @virtualalias |

I like how this guy just sorta speedruns build up and destroy the straw-man Ten bucks the quality turns out mediocre of the study opportunities, because people like Frankie Farmer over here has a desire to stack some money into trusts This guy is supposed to be intellectual? At best he's LARPing as one My kindergarten teacher taught me more about life than this guy could ever descriptively circle around, only to repeat again, and again, and Meanwhile, she, well let's just say that if you were here right now, you would witness with your own eyes, that I can totally tie my shoes Now that, was life changing intel This right here, that's finance stuffing large amounts of money into projects that all promise to be good for society, yet somehow there's only bankers, economists, and fuck-you wealth in the room Put a few actually solid characters like Lex in front of you, who will probably even be excited to take this on, making it look more "active" Anyway, I heard there were these academics a little while back, that would blow your mind Just wanted to, you know, "leave it in the comments" I'm off this interviews dick Peace Comment from : @TheApeMachine |

Ferguson once wrote that the reason for Chinese growth in the 20th century was the increase in Protestantism and the Protestant work ethic Completely missing that agriculture in the west sees workers basically hibernate for 6 months off the year and in the east, rice patties can produce continually This is such a huge error I’m not sure I’ll believe anything he says again Comment from : @mrjimmbo |

this guy is awesome Comment from : @Monatomic_Media |

Liberal Arts andStem that what I want to see here inSherwood,Oregon Comment from : @Jim-kc3gx |
|
Oh bloody hell I agree, in a really timid and polite way with his ideas about university And my mind us filled with guilt images about what could go wrong Now he is talking what I consider bollards about crypto He just considered the possibility of mortgages taken out in a financial system opaque to government oversight Such a system, I think, would be beyond the reach of courts The man is a fool But I still agree about universities Sh!te Comment from : @alexhubble |
|
The step from far left to far right has always been a very small one Corporatism is a word you rarely hear these days but was an important feature of Fascist regimes that appealed to many in the rural and urban working class who switched for far left to far right in a heartbeat Comment from : @laika3916 |

1:20:00 I wonder if the speaker still feels the same with Crypto price drop over the past Or if he would view this as reasoning for the US to tether the dollar to it current given the current price of Crypto? Comment from : @willbigcrow6609 |
