evreyone is entitled to an opinion whether they understand the issue or not.. we all piss each other off,, its the ego and the insecurity from our dehumanised state..
Actually, I think I have made some videos since this one very favorable to many of his ideas. If it's important to you, can you can't find them, I will see if I can. Also, techniques he was using, which started my diatribes, have been suspended and have not occurred lately, to my knowledge.
Also, I think most of my complaints were rather specific. Did I really say that I thought he had done more harm than good for anarchy? That doesn't sound like the kind of thing I would say about him, partly because I am not the vigorous proponent of anarchy that would make such a statement. But if you heard me say it, then I guess I did!
"Arguing with someone who's not their equal." Interesting. Alright, then who IS your equal and how will you know when you've found him/her? If you have utterly NO standard for this, then you have no standard for arguing your implicit superior knowledge.
I'd say this is something you'll find commonly amoung any group that espouses any form of alternative government. I myself am an Anarchist but I got tired of the debate to the point that I don't even care anymore.
So much of the debate is just crap arguments that make no sense from crap opponents who think they're automatically hot shit because their peticular system of choice is in practice. Then it turns into a big "we're better than you." virtual high-fiving session. (cont...)
So much so, that eventually any challenge at all gets looked at like it's equal to that, and then you wake up and find yourself defending an utter retard from the logical attacks of people who are actually somewhat intelligent, and you go- "What the fuck am I even doing this for?"
So, in summary. Provided the climate for political change rolls around, I might just go get my black flag out. Till then you'll find me calling individual politicians on what I think is dubious and that's about it.
My supposed beliefs are the arguments should be logical and honest, regardless of the subject matter. My concern is for the process of truth, and honest in arriving at it.
Buried in here somewhere I try to do that, but I doubt if I could find it if I looked. My current position is that I find many of the aspirations of anarchists uplifting and inspirational, and they provide hope for a better future. I wish anarchy were the answer, and I am more than willing to be convinced, but I don't have enough information yet to be a convert, so to speak. Selling anarchy like encyclopedias (I can find the video for that if you haven't seen it), doesn't work for me.
Well, I can tell you that when we research the causes of things we cannot search for the results we "want" to believe, as you suggested Stefbot does not always provide.
I am disabled and spend about 10 hours a day on youtube. I don't take notes so I can teach other people because I hope they can make up their own minds with the same information.
Since when did I become obligated to do research for you? He has his Ron Paul videos in a playlist. If you want to waste your time knock yourself out.
I reserve the right to express an opinion to a FRIEND without writing an essay to satisfy someones cult followers. My objections to his video were made clear in the comments.
What exactly are you pissed of about.
It would help the viewers if you actually stated them plus provide us with your views on anarchy.

Are you hiding insecurities behind that big ego of yours?

Really, you really think Stephan Molyneux has done more harm than good for anarchy?
I understand the vid is out of date, so maybe you wanna update that.
If not then pfff...i'm irritated...

Ha!!! Stef not a premiere debator?! This is great stuff.
You obviously haven't experienced even a fraction of Stefs 1100 podcasts, 5 books.
If you had, you'd be embarrassed to have said this.
Here's what I hear you saying: "Hey Chomsky, why don't you do some research?"

Why not make a contribution to your supposed beliefs instead of throwing sticks & stones @ Stef?
Stefan Molyneux is a brilliant man - his contribution is changing the world.

Stefan has been doing these podcasts and videos since 2005. He's just trying new things.
Go to freedomainradio dot c o m and listen to the podcasts. It might change your opinion on him.

I unsubscribed from stefbot after he wasted 40 minutes of my time on a rant against Ron Paul that was just laughable.

you would like to point out how that is exactly?

That was a load of shit. You say something is "laughable" then inform me that it is my duty to understand the origins of YOUR opinion. Cute.

1. I have seen the videos.
2 I asked why YOU stated they were "laughable."
3. Is there a place I can go to "research" your opinions on stef's videos aside from here?
Try to focus on the question. You would have been better off simply saying "fuck off."
