Understanding formal logic and fallacies is only half the story when it comes to understanding intellectual self-defense. I was invited onto the Apocatastasis Institute to discuss my interpretation on how to handle intellectual self-defense.

If you want to defend yourself intellectually, you need to be prepared to take on a crowd at any given time. Identifying a logical fallacy is just the first step in intellectual self-defense: you also need to know what to do after you've identified the fallacy.

Dylan Moore of Irida TV has a guest appearance at the Apocatastasis Institute with John Coleman to discuss the understanding history through the lens of Carroll Quigley and the ideas he puts forth in his book The Evolution of Civilizations. How do the goals of all social organizations eventually get taken over by a group of vested interests? If we know, understand, and expect this to happen, what can we do to avoid it in all aspects of our lives?

Ian Ferguson from whitelotusoflight.com joins us to discuss a nuance you probably never considered before. Who is Moloch, the Canaanite god from the Old Testament, and what's his relationship to Lucifer? Does the term "Satan" describe Lucifer or something far more sinister? Get ready for a wild ride in this conversation!

Some thoughts following up a great conversation with Dr. E Michael Jones on usury, banking, and business. How do we identify where the SYSTEM is oppressing us vs. where we are suppressing ourselves? Adjusting ourselves is always easier than adjusting others, so how do we identify those cases to put our energy into the best efforts possible?

Dr. E Michael Jones joins us at IridaTV to discuss his pivotal work on economics, Barren Metal. What is the most fundamental and important aspect of an economy? Who should benefit from and what is the value of labor? How do you extract value from others' labor without doing any work? Dr Jones answers within!

In a financial system where we have a banking system that generates money out of nothing, what is the purpose of borrowers paying any interest at all? What is the societal purpose of banks to begin with? If usury is wrong at any level, even at a 1% interest, how could we have a banking system where it's worth it to even be a bank? I think I have an idea.

What is the West and why is it so valuable? We all know that the education system in the West is teaching children to hate their own civilization and their own culture. How do we reinject and excite children to want to learn of their own culture, the opportunity that is presented to them because of it, and how to make sure that it continues? Dylan Moore of Irida TV discusses this in depth with Lynn Trinh and Ann Streit, founders of The Classical Scholars.

The Classical Scholars was formed to give direct education to children of Western Civilization and culture. Classes are currently held as summer camps and will be offered in private schools in the future.

Pride month got me thinking about how to effectively disarm the forces who control us with words. We are objectively responsible for our actions, but we subjectively choose to believe that or not. If we can control someone else's belief in what they are responsible for, we can control actions. How do you defend yourself against this?
