Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to Scott Galloway about his political stance as a "raging moderate"; the challenges moderates face from both political extremes; the importance of government support in his success; why the current state of affirmative action is failing and how a shift toward income-based support rather than race-based could help reform it; why government involvement in helping underprivileged kids is necessary; the struggles of young men in America; why young men are facing severe issues such as higher suicide rates, addiction, and incarceration compared to women, who are excelling in many areas; how societal changes, biased educational systems, and the impact of social media have negatively affected young men; why we need more support programs for young men; how mandatory national service can foster unity and understanding among different social groups; why telling young people to "follow their passion" is the worst advice you could give them and what we should be telling them instead; the utility of religion even though he is an atheist; his exposure to various religions through his father's multiple marriages and how these experiences highlighted the importance of community and kindness; how his atheism has given him a sense of urgency and courage; the need for economic planning and the importance of diversification and long-term thinking; and much more.
