Konstantin Kisin is a podcaster, a speaker and an author.
Despite living in objectively the best time ever, there is a common trend of people believing that the world is getting worse. Is this an accurate assessment of the existentially unfulfilling modern world, or is it fragile victims whining about nothing?
Expect to learn the danger of pedestalising victimhood, Konstantin's thoughts on Theo Von being screwed out of thousands of dollars, his reaction to Sam Harris' viral clip on Triggernometry, why people still won't shut up talking about Brexit, the problem with climate change discourse and much more...

The founders of the U.S purposely set everything up so the minority would have some power and ability to make change. Otherwise, we would just be another dictatorship with the majority as the single source of power and laws. Maybe those in power shouldn't bend over for the minority like they do now. They purposely give power to the minority. Or maybe blame the majority for not exercising their voices. The minority just seem to be better organized at the moment.

Recognizing the different categories and levels of the oligarchy. Democracy for the oligarchy is a representative democracy which the oligarchs manage and regulate the elections.

The probability of which is zero without a structure in place that manages the elections. Run the numbers on it, zero... You have to add a whole lot of conditionals. 90% of those in Jails and Prisons are uneducated, the vast majority of the poor are uneducated. The educated pray upon the uneducated in America.

I quit my job in 1996, stayed home and raised our daughters. We were fortunate that I was able to stay home. It's the hardest job you'll ever have. Reading children's books to them and watching juvenile tv shows, there were times that I felt my brain was turning to mush. But I am glad I did.stay home. We have 2 successful, compassionate adult daughters that I am very proud of. If I had to do it all over again, it would be the same.

I’m a lover of old movies. I mean movies from over 70 years ago that projects cultures before we ever called the “West” the “Western World”. Those movies of post war world that changed so much because of WWII. There was an evolution of change in the 20th century greater than any other century and it’s something young people just don’t understand because they never had any curiosity about it and didn’t want to learn. I believe these old movies can teach a lot as visual time capsules showing how different generations thought. About what they thought. Both in what the stories in these movies are giving and the thinking of the movie makers of that time. Times when ethical codes had to be followed like two people, men and women sharing the same bed. Both in TV and movies. These things might seem trivial but it’s healthy to look back and see where we came from. That way we might understand better on where we’re going.

I thought the same thing. It occurs to me that most of these podcasts - and I listen to most - are just people with similar views saying the same things to people who also think the same as them - rarely is there anyone interviewed who are responsible for what is going on. Many of these podcasters have more viewers than mainstream media - time for people in charge of these things to become guests.

The "you're just at home?" part about Konstantine's wife really hit me, because my wife who just had a baby is feeling the same thing without anybody saying anything to her that crazy, but that sentiment is in her head. I can see the conflict in her, because she really doesn't want to go back to work but feels like she needs to, and not even for lack of money, just because it's so ingrained in her that she needs to have a job. I keep trying to gently coax her into the idea that, no, you don't need to go back to work if you don't want to. Raising our kid is the most important thing in the world, and if that's what you want to do full time then I'll move heaven and earth to support that. But that cultural programming that mothers need to do it all is a damn tough tick to remove.

She might just want to go back to work. Being a mother.... sometimes...is not pre-programned in to women/men. A few of my friends wives were MORE than happy to get a break from motherhood.

@fostermoody
@fostermoody 6 місяців тому
@davidnguyen270 she's flat out told me she dreads the idea of going back to work. She spends a lot of time trying to figure out something she could do to make money at home, even though we're not that hard up for money, even with the economy as it is. She's just never not worked a job as an adult, and she struggles to view motherhood as a valid occupation because of messages from the culture at large, which she has also flat out told me. We've talked about it, if she wanted to go back to work because she got lots out of it aside from money I'd be on board for that too, but sadly that's not it. Everything from the culture at large denigrates motherhood as a downgrade from career, and she struggles to break herself from that notion.

this has been happening for years. its the same old thing marx was talking about, strangely enough. in the old days it was a gulf between nobility and peasantry, then the nobility was abolished as the peasantry split into the mass proletariat and the elite bourgeoisie in a replication of the same divide. We still have it today. the bourgeoisie, which conservatives call the elites, have their own culture, and the proletariat, which conservatives call the silent majority, have their own culture. elites control corporate and government academia so they produce allies to fill the corporate and government ranks. elites control corporate and government media so they control the proletariat's perception of their own culture and their worldview, wokeifying much the proletariat and making the dissenters think they are in the minority. elites control corporocracy and government bureaucracy so they control who gets what job, and if you do not express elite culture then you as a proletarian are excluded. and finally, they control government itself, which gives them control over laws. this elite culture is found across the west and is uniform, which is why they can all go to Davos and agree on everything. it's cultural, it's in vogue to be woke amongst the elite and much of the masses. and meanwhile, just like the old marxist bourgeoisie, they really do want you to be a wage slave who owns nothing and goes nowhere while they enjoy top-level luxury.

We have been able to balance our lives such that I stayed home with our now nearly (17 and 19) grown children. I will forever be thankful to my husband for his sacrifice and hard work. Being a SAHM has been the most fulfilling thing in my life. I was recently at a party with someone discussing what changes I might make now that my nest is nearly empty. I said I wasn't sure. "Don't you have any dreams," she asked me. I was stunned. I thought a second and said- I lived my dream. I feel a little bit like I'm being downsized, I feel a little laid off or semi-retired. Not sure what to make of it, but I regret absolutely nothing.

The same lecturers who if we are honest couldn’t cut it in the real world so they hide in academia where they won’t get challenged on their badly thought out strong beliefs. We my friend seem to be in the minority of people who can be challenged and we don’t see it as an attack on our ego.

Imagine if I had complained that the world was structured against me. Instead, I rejoice with those that can do things I can't. Don't resent people. Pray for them and that they be blessed.

As a software engineer turned stay-at-home mom come December when our first is due, I couldn't help but tear up when he talked about his wife. It is so refreshing to hear! I feel so thankful every day my husband works as hard as he does so I can do everything in my power to have a healthy & calm pregnancy and then raise our child and provide a wonderful home for our family. It took so much work & budgeting but we both knew it was a priority. Thank you for having Konstantin on! It truly made my day!

From a Gen X retired military man who grew up witnessing some of the changes in society that have occurred since the 1970s when I was a little boy, this talk laid bare many truths I have thought about. My experiences include living around societies outside the United States and coming to learn how our relationships with each other fit together globally, as well as "tribally". Human beings are familial and tribal by nature, we always have been, and we always will be. The Western world tries to ignore that, and that ignorance is not working out very well. Thank you for this discussion. It is a lot to think about.

Totally agree. I’ve been saying this for a long time. History and human nature have shown we will side with those who look like us especially in a pressure situation. Even the leftist professor who wrote Bowling Alone came to the conclusion that diversity causes distrust and destroys social cohesion. The author, disturbed that his worldviews of multiculturalism and multiracial were shattered makes the mistaken argument that through rationality we can change the mistrust we have towards others. The elites tell me I’m racist or xenophobic but I argue I’m a realist and realize it’s human nature to self segregate and prefer to live amongst people who look like me and have the same heritage and traditions.

The undermining of community is the result of radical negative liberty and the resistance to positive liberty. This negative liberty is the result of the total domination of the psychopathic economic elite, who cannot afford for ordinary people to have access to the wonderful power of community.

The thing with the Bug Light boycott isn't so much that they sent a few cans to Dylan. What really set it off was that the marketing executive said that they hated their customers. Had it only been the Dylan stuff, that would have blown over and any sales loss would have likely been temporary. Instead, they sent the message the reason for the campaign was that they wanted different customers. About 30% of their customers got that message and will never consume another of their beer. Problem for Bud Light is that the "new" base they wanted doesn't exist. Dylan's core target he influences are either not beer drinkers, or are underage.

BL was the number one product of the company, a crappy beer with a loyal base. How stupid did she have to be to debase them, her customers, as somehow less than worthy and not 'exciting' enough for her brand. Her narcissism was extreme and it was as much about her imo as it was the 'product' they had repackaged with Mulvaney's face and drama on it. Who wants to be part of that? 13 year old lonely girls, thats who. Imagine them replacing millions of working class heterosexual American men, of any color or political perpective, who work like crazy, want to hang out with friends and barbeque on the weekends, have a shag now and then..they really messed up putting her in the position they did, and its the CEO that should step down, if he had the balls, which he doesnt..

It was a rejection of the idea that the opinions of their core demographic didn't matter, and that really caused an emotional response. I think when they saw the boycott was having an effect it gained more support. That said I agree that an endless boycott over the actions of a small group within the company is probably an overreaction. The lesson should be that companies that don't want to be tied to identity politics, should stay out of them. That used to be the standard, but as ESG scores became pushed by the top oligarchs at Blackrock, Disney, etc. identity politics became more important than profit. I think Bud Light and to a lesser extent Disney will be cautionary tales for companies trying to get DEI cred at the expense of their core audience.

I remember one woman in my sociology lecture when I was at university who was from Chelsea who was also very physically attractive and affluent lecturing us on "glass celings" in fortune 500 companies and the Patriarchy wholst also being incredibly snobbish and condescending to anybody below her social class and well as having the privilege to do unpaid internships whilst her parents paid for her living expenses. Not to say I am a victim becuase I grew up on a council estate, I managed to get into a redbrick university but it always astounds me here in the UK how wealthy and high social class people claim victimhood and oppression becuase they happen to be women or of a certain race even though both their parents earn 100k a year and they went to private school.

Looking at it across the pond from the US, my perception of classism in the UK has generally been that it's like what racism supposedly is in this country, but worse, not least of all because it's not even recognized, or recognized as a problem. To be fair, I think classism in this country is worse than racism, but it doesn't get play in the media while they beat the drum all day long about race and racism. In fact to a large degree the racism that exists seems to be a proxy for, or an instance of, classism in disguise, and the rest is a manufactured hall of mirrors to divide and conquer the population as well as keep certain groups dependent on government in order to get power.

One day were walking into a nice restaurant and I didn’t open the door for her and an elderly man called me out on it. She replied “isnt it sad, chivalry is dead.” This was not a prank. Long story short, when we got the check I suggested she pay (first time ever) because we need to be consistent so our relationship can flourish as equals. She payed. I never spoke to her again lol.

The bud light controversy was the failure to own and apologize , they doubled down, and then called all their fans frat boys, and in amidst the controversy they slap an American flag on the can (metaphorically) and thought their customers were so dumb that that would fix everything. The veil of a beloved company was lifted , that’s why the bud light boycott happened, not because of one silly TIk tok.

The tiktok was like a re-branding .announcement. By that choice the company did in that little minute of tiktok show their customer base all of the broken decision making back-end in the company. To the point where consumers actually became political tools by opting to continue drinking the beverage. As opposed to other brands who state the brand opinion, this company used its customer base to front the company opinion. Cant wait for this event to be studies in schools as an example of branding and propaganda.

Kisin is right, that "just" has hurt our whole community for a long time. My husband and I have had me at home for 10 years and two kids on well under 100k a year in Washington state near Seattle (one of the more expensive places to live in the US). It can be done, if you value having the mother at home.

When I was fortunate enough to study at university in the 90's - the first thing our excellent, Sorbonne graduate lecturer hammered home was 'strike just' - remove it in your mind every time it precedes any statement or observation and then address the syntax and clauses that remain. We should apply this to everything, every time any pundit, 'woke', 'alt - right', whatever, introduces any subject as if it were a given. My wife and I both went part time and shared our infant rearing duties to that extent. I cherish that time (even though sometimes it was a challenge) and am absolutely sure that what I had to bring to the table in that early development of our boy was as efficacious and influential in his wellbeing and character as that supplied by his superb and wonderful Mum. I do not claim that we are the equivalent of each other in this or many other things. I Really appreciate the nuance and value of difference and have no desire to pretend that human beings are equivalent to each other at all times and in all things - the adherence to that insane 'ideology' is as ignorant and disgusting to me as the doctrinaire claptrap that 'naturalises' capitalism as the only way to structure our economics and society. The wise man dismisses nothing. Keep the bankers off people - and keep on engaging and playing with all ideas - it's the engine of our social evolution and survival.

The gym dress situation has gotten absolutely ridiculous with the "butt scrunch" shorts. The idea that women are somehow in the right to be able to wear what is basically lingerie if not very actual fetish wear in public but then demand no reaction to that reminds me of Dave Chapelle's take on it: “The girl says "Oh uh-uh, wait a minute! Wait a minute! Just because I'm dressed this way does not make me a whore!" Which is true, Gentlemen, that is true. Just because they dress a certain way doesn't mean they are a certain way. But ladies, you must understand that is fucking confusing. Now that would be like me, Dave Chappelle, the comedian, walking down the street in a cop uniform. Somebody might run up on me saying, "Oh, thank God. Officer, help us! Come on. They're over here. Help us!" "Oh-hoh! Just because I'm dressed this way does not make me a police officer!" See what I mean? All right, ladies, fine. You are not a whore. But you are wearing a whore's uniform.”

@@umiluv I worked as a trainer for years and on a number of occasions I had to actively tell the women "wear proper clothes, you're here to get stronger as an athlete, not to have your ass cheeks hang out. At no point in time should your tits popping out of your shirt be a consideration during sandbag drills or a power clean". It's extra ridiculous if you realize the meme about women always being cold compared to their bfs but then at the gym say they need to wear booty shorts and a sports bra. The big jacked 225lb guy is eating 5000 cals a day and wearing a full sweat suit (pump cover) and the 130lb women are eating 1800 cals and doing most cardio are somehow "warmer". In the end it's all excuses used to justify garnering attention from specific men and intimidating female competition.

"Shifting from doing good to looking good" All those youtubers filming themselves while giving something to homeless people come to mind. They were still giving with one hand while recording themselves with the other but the question was already there: "Which one would you give up if you had to? Would you still be giving out food and/or taking them to that BBQ place if no one would ever know about it?" (Edit: a typo)

Even religious institution which was supposed to be separated on their own has now unknowingly fallen into this fallacy in topics of finance, culture, marriage, relationships, identity crisis, and racism due to social media.
