Didactic Mind

This week's episode is a wide-ranging one, in which I cover a number of different topics:

• The current state of the utterly corrupted 2020 electile dysfunction in the USA and Vox Day's enigmatic yet upbeat response to the current demoralisation and gaslighting campaigns from the traitorous (((media)));

... and plenty more.

Reader ReactionaryTeen had a long comment to add to my recent post about killing your inner Gamma male:

I often struggle with thinking I’m a gamma, even though dogs respect me and I have a (kind of) dangerous blue collar job (cutting feral bees out of walls). I’ve started lifting, and I’m 6’+ and hardly overweight. The main source of my self-perceived gammatude is, as with a lot of guys, my dealing with women. I am what scripture would call “slow of speech and tongue.” I used to have a minor speech impediment as a kid/young teen. I’m over it now, and have taken public speaking classes so now I can talk to customers and platonic friends with no problems, but the instant I think of talking to a moderately attractive female my tongue locks up and I practically run away to avoid embarrassing myself. I honestly think I just need more practice. I was raised in a Christian homeschooling family, and while I have a head start on college (junior at 19) and a $100/hr job working with my father, I have had almost zero experience talking to girls I’m interested in. In addition to this, the church we attend is relatively small and the only girl there who I’d consider a good catch is currently in a very serious courtship with my twin brother (on the plus side, that tells me I’m not physically unattractive). The close second (physically, anyway) is on a prayer list (and meds) for cutting herself. Obviously not wife material. Any suggestions as to how I can improve my social skills with women and also find any I’d consider? I think my problem is legitimately lack of exposure. I thought about going to my college’s Christian group or whatever, but the rainbow flag pins some of them wore obviously nixed that idea.

I provide some ideas about how to get past the fear of talking to girls in this podcast, such as:

• Learning from Adam Piggott's 28 Traits of the Modern Man;

There's plenty to digest in this podcast, so be sure to listen all the way through.

Oh, and as I mentioned - this podcast is now available on a number of major podcasting services:

• Podbean

This week's episode is all about the lies that have seduced us and are now destroying us. I talk about the realities of the world around us, such as:

• The fact that Donald Trump WON the election on Nov 3 but is in serious danger of having it stolen from him;

... and plenty more besides.

Furthermore, I encourage listeners to embrace the hard reality that we, ourselves, are responsible for our current situation. And I provide clear, actionable advice to help you get over the oppressive climate of fear, suppression, despair, and helplessness that threatens to overwhelm us all.

Time for another Domain Query - this time I answer a very interesting question from reader "H" about whether or not there is any hope for apostates. Here is the original question:

Forgive me if this is an annoying question you would rather not answer - I understand if that is the case. If you’re inclined to answer, I wanted to ask what your thoughts are about apostasy and returning to the faith. I was a Christian 10 years ago and said that I no longer believed after believing atheist arguments I read about online. Now, I see that many of those arguments are unsound and I feel like our overly hedonistic culture is empty and I’ve been lied to. I’ve wondered if I can return to Christianity and if God would accept me back... but there is the verse in Hebrews that suggests otherwise and I feel I may be damned and there is no hope. 

I answered this at some length in writing, and decided to address the same issue in spoken form here.

Longtime Reader and FotB Kapios had a couple of interesting and thoughtful questions for me a couple of days ago with respect to GETTIN' SHIT DONE!:

Lately, my mind has been preoccupied by thoughts on boredom. I had my head in a cloud for years about the lie that I have to feel like doing something before doing it or the usual ‘follow your passion’ advice. I’m not about to advocate working for a soul sucking finance job, but finding work or starting a business that has 2-3 exciting aspects about it and another 10 boring tasks that you have to go through is the norm. I have to admit, I just started to make serious abstinence from the vices that you mentioned and I feel better.

I have not fully integrated that belief in my mind yet, so I was wondering what would be your advice on propelling yourself towards a desirable belief and outcome once you start cutting off the anchors that hold you back?

As a general rule isn’t it true that passion is cultivated and not something that you already have, with maybe a few exceptions around the world?

I answer this in the latest Domain Query podcast:.

Commenter Sasha Hrongmitts had a rather interesting follow-up question to my last post about the early history of Islam:

Are you sure the Persian Empire used Arabs as troops against the Byzantines? I could be mistaken, but I thought one of the reasons the Arabs were so successful against the Byzantines was their war manual, the Strategikon, did not have any info on Arab armies.

I don't discount the possibility that the Byzantines simply didn't know how to fight the Arabs, but it's worth asking whether the Arabs had made any significant military impact on the world stage before Islam's rise. The answer is almost certainly "no".

In this Domain Query podcast, I explain why, at least based on what evidence we have today:.

Reader and friend JohnC posted a long series of questions about generational differences between the Baby Boomers, GenXers, Millennial(tard)s, and GenZ in a couple of comments on the Great Mondaydact Browser Buster from earlier this week:

Hey Didact what are thoughts on Gen X bosses? Gen X parenting?

I know many blame the Baby boomers on this and that. I myself am a Gen Y.

I have worked with Silent, Baby boomers, Gen X, Gen Y and now Z. I find the Baby Boomers would say a lot of crap on things like SJW things but really not mean it. As long as the company is making money.

Gen X on the other hand push health, safety, anti bully and equality far more often in the workplaces and see it more important than money.

I think what you are seeing in the world today in major companies in the USA is the rise of Gen X bosses. I could be wrong, but I don't think many companies are run by Gen Y at this moment in time. I think Gen X now are taking over the companies.

Also parenting, my gosh the anti racism, anti bully campaign and the push for young girls in higher education by the Gen X's is amazing bad. Gen Y are now parenting but we are still at the early stage since many of us did not kids until we were 30s (I still don't have any at this moment in time). I went to school in the 90s and Baby boomers teachers are the type that will say something but don't care to push it hard. Gen X teachers are the type that if they say it they enforce it.

Gen Y are the type that push the ideas to the limits until it fails hard and then move on to other ideas. That is why Gen Y try Veganism, Atheism, women working high careers and voting to the left at a higher rate when they were young compare to Gen X and Baby boomers.

Again I could be wrong.

Also a thought many of the pastors in the US today are Gen X and what do we see. The stupid anti racism and pro rainbow flags.

This is not to hate on the Generation X but to show that things don't get better just because the Baby boomers are retiring. The Baby boomer were and still are bad compare to the generations that come before them. And it is amazing that many of them still think the world owes them.

Now that Gen X is in charge you would think that they would want to reverse some of the damage but instead they push it into high gear.

I also don't believe that Gen Y or Z will do any better when they get into power.

My prediction is that many companies today will over time give up higher positions to women of Gen Y. They (gen Y women in the positions) will then destroy the businesses.

You can not put your faith in the Generations, since they are people.

Also it sad to think that instead of trying to make positive changes now, many are relaying on the younger generations to fix the problems cause by their generations and the older ones. People had given up on Gen Y but i will tell you, Gen Z can not fix it (at least not on their own) and Generation Alpha will not fix it. It will take all generations to make sacrifices and a turn to God.

Like I said - a LOT of questions all strung together. So I answered them at some length. Here is the embedded podcast.

Commenter Johnny asked a number of questions on the back of last week's Friday T&A post related to Indians in America. They are mixed in with lots of other stuff, so I'll break them down into simple chunks:

1. Why are Indians in the West (especially America) so vocally and uniformly left-wing? They vote like 80% or more Democrat, as a high-income group.

I endeavour to answer all of these questions, and quite a lot more, in a Domain Query podcast.

Reader JohnC911 had another couple of questions for me on the back of my post a while back on the subject of race riots in the USA:

If the US President and/or the American congress ask for your advice on how to solve Race relations?

If Race relations can not fix peacefully or the solution will be too resistant and requiring many long term fixes that the president (or the congress) could not achieve what are some temporary (temporary being for the next 4 to 8 years) fixes that you could come up with?

As is my wont nowadays, I answered this via a Domain Query podcast:.
