He might be able to chart what is happening but he has no clue as to why unless you consider the fact he commingles it with politics that are decidedly far left wing and fascist

@@terrific804 lol he seems to have a lot more knowledge than you. You’re probably one of those incels he’s referring to, living in your mom’s basement. He literally said people need to set politics aside, so no, he’s not a far left ‘fascist’. The far right seems to be the ones trying to overthrow democracy, by the by.

​@@terrific804 It's obvious that you don't have a clue what fascism is! It's definitely not left wing! Hitler & Mussolini were not leftist liberals! You need to go back to history books and re-educate yourself!

@@zdk1099 What is left...what is right...lol. I'll bet you can't even tell me what a woman is😳

@@zdk1099 What is left...what is right...lol. I'll bet you can't even tell me what a woman is😳

He is simply documenting facts. But then he uses them in an attempt to legitimize a radical left wing agenda at the same time proposing both sides need to talk it out. Of course we need to talk and that's where he should leave it, not try for example tell you that young men who may have become isolated from the brainwashed are now climate change deniers. 😴

Clearly a fascist

No, we don't.

@@gustavbrinkel5489 Yes, much like that lonely voice crying out in the wilderness - Jordan Peterson. Right here - 4 days out of 7 - 52 weeks a year. The poor shrinking violet. Danged cancel culture is always drowning out his urgently needed, selflessly offered wise counsel. 🙄

@@MrVonBastardBaseless opinion noted.

Nor I yet it was informative.

Wow we're doing what he was telling us to do loll, focus less on disagreements and more on the person! I didn't agree with everything either, but those were just details. It's fine. Overall, I really enjoyed the interview. :)

What DID you disagree with? 🧐 Curious.

The problem is women hypergamy, not decline of middle class. I haven't seen recent data but 5-10 years ago, middle shrunk by 11%, 7% of them moved up a class and 4% went down a class so statistics can be misleading.

@Scott Fun fact: Men prefer dating “down” . Something to do with hierarchy and being the decider at home. The disappearance of the middle class has to do with inflation and taxation mainly, because wealth is built overwhelmingly with real estate in the US. Stocks second. So you might want to reinterpret that data

@@AgeOfGoldenSilence I think there is some truth to men dating down but that would be for mostly non college males and it doesn’t change the fact that most women are still dating up and the combination of the two is a problem. Also majority of women prefer their male partner to be confident and a leader. This is where their feminist has them with one foot in past and one in present. Lots of preference on both genders need to be adjusted to fit current equality. The decline of the the middle class is a misnomer that politicians push. My stats are correct and facts are more people moved up a class than went down. Doesn’t matter how they did it. Not saying we shouldn’t try to build up numbers of middle class but cannot do it via gov money.

Well he was wrong about his nephew who died from COVID.

@@leagarner3675 Because a vaccine could save him how was he wrong? Are you an anti-vaxer?

As long as you praise their moronic leaders and propagandistic media.

This is true. We have many great people here. Strange though, how smart nice people make terrible political decisions, and fall for ridiculous propaganda. It all comes back to capitalism, IMO. At the root of so many problems here, when you look deeply into it

Where are you from? That has ALOT to do with how "nice" Midwestern people present themselves.

@@jtcali2086 Canada. I crossed the border at the Soo in Michigan and cycled to Boulder Colorado. I met a lot of very nice people.

I completely agree. This was an excellent segment!

I’m 😮

Scott is very Bright unfortunately most of society are the complete opposite many Americans are proud of lack of knowledge.

As Neil DeGrasse Tyson has pointed out, unlike religion, science is true, whether you believe it or not.

Science can be weaponized though. Remember when Fauci said, “If you question me, you question science.” That’s what is meant by the politicalization of science. No man is above reproach and certainly transparency is key to science.

@@freefastinflippinfun4606 Transparency is not key to science, transparency is intrinsic to science. There is no such thing as non transparent science.

@@chrissaris6869 what? Science relies on replicable experiments. That is by definition transparency. Holy Christ I’m terrified you don’t know the most basic aspect of science.

@@freefastinflippinfun4606 Now what is your point? you state exactly wat I say. By the way, I actually AM a scientist.

He’s working with the Government.

@@karenburns9952Lol! What on earth are you talking about?!?

How come the chickens are only now coming home to roost and not centuries or millennia ago? Why particularly this generation and mostly in the West?

@@Lerian_V I'm not sure if this is a sincere question or an attempt at being defensive; hard to tell on the internet, so I'll just suggest that you really think about your question, break it down into its component parts, and see if you can't answer it yourself.

@@SaddleInTheRain I was trying to understand the comparison between men in the past and today's men.

@@Lerian_V A sincere question then; my apologies. The simplest and shortest answer is that raising boys to be tough and emotionless is a modern/post modern phenomenon. It just wasn't a societal issue prior to the Industrial Revolution. Norms and social mores change over time, and prior to the Industrial Revolution, the occupation of many was farming and the whole family was involved. Families were focusing on their farms and making enough money each season to make it to the next season. The socially proscribed roles and behaviors that we are just beginning to get past simply didn't exist or at least weren't touted by society. As to why this generation and why mostly in the west, I think this generation is recognizing how wrong it is on a fundamental level, but doesn't know what to do with those feelings of anger, confusion, resentment. They're just overwhelmed and don't know how to process it all and we're seeing the psychological fallout from that. It does seem to be a western character trait and I really don't know why (something for me to research). I will say, however, that compared to other developed countries, we lag behind in so many areas (no universal healthcare, no real programs that support families, a substandard educational system, elevated child poverty, the list goes on and on) so it's not really a surprise that we would be dysfunctional in this area too. Also, it's hard to claim that women are overly emotional - and therefore somehow inferior (another long standing, if erroneous, norm) - if you allow men to also show their emotions.

@@SaddleInTheRain Are you saying that men are tougher and more stoic today than they were under the [Holy] Roman empire?

Buyden has to go

That time is over. You don't get to have your president call half the nation racist because we have different political philosophies... Especially when democrats policies are clearly failing.

Because you are a man

This is democratic propaganda

@@marjoriebreslin2995 perhaps. I mostly vote Democrat and I think this guy is talking bunk. In fact, if you only listen without watching it's worse. He sounds fake. He's taken old tropes and tried to wrap them in newer language to sell his book. He sounds like another person saying if we would all be good little kiddies and follow his "expert" guidance we will have roses and sunshine - He's just trying to wrap it up differently. I agree with you, tho not necessarily that its Democrat, but definitely propaganda. I don't trust him partly bc I've heard other interviews w him and he says different things in different interviews - he's certainly good at telling people what they want to hear. Taking advantage of divisions in our country to sell his book.

While Biden hands billions, tens of billions to Big Business, the left says that's not fascism😂😂😂😂😂😂 he shuts down our energy production and cripples are food production, causes double digit inflation and leads us to World War 3

Blame it on Putin..... 😂😂😂😂😂

We aren't a democracy. We are a Republic of 50 different, unique, states. Stop trying to create a federal totalitarian government.

LoL I suppose you think nailing Hunter for tax evasion leaves Joe off the hook🙈

How does American democracy not work?

Hi Rita EVERYTHING you spoke of is exactly what is desperatly needed. PLEASE get involved it's a serious life & death matter!!

Wow .,.,.. that was some set of heels that Stephanie was wearing. How do women even walk in heels that high?

So it's your "truth" that defines fascism😂

It's called evolution. We're not living in caves.

Unfortunately not, because MAGA Republicans in Congress put stop every positive move he would make...

@@Matt-1147 because his book is about America. Why would he talk about something the isn't in his book?

Well I think his statement was correct twenty years ago but it's becoming less true with each passing year. And that general trend is what his book is about.

@@randal_gibbons He stated in the Interview - to which I'm replying - in context with the scientific success of the COVID-19 vaccines that the best and brightest want to come to the US. That is a unreflected talking point of a lot of US American intellectuals, journalists and commentators. I'm pointing out that it might be debatable, as science and logistics successes are not restricted to the US by a long shot. If he makes anything like a comparable argument in the book, so much worse for him, it makes his stances so much harder to take seriously.

@@nina1608 There are plenty of smart people and great companies and institutions all over the world. However, the US is only about 4% of the world population. Yet it is probably a fact that the US produces far far more than 4% of almost everything ... new research, dominant companies, charitable giving, world leaders, etc. So his overall points and broad trends are probably generally correct. Can you show us any significant area of any kind whatsoever where the USA does not contribute far more than 4% of whatever that area is?
