Michael Shellenberger's Guide to Escaping the Woke Matrix

Michael Shellenberger's Guide to Escaping the Woke Matrix
Journalist and author Michael Shellenberger argues that wokeism is the dominant religion of elites in the West, complete with guilt, original sin, taboos, saints, devils, and the promise of redemption and immortality. How do we escape the woke matrix? Shellenberger offers a guide. Shellenberger delivered this lecture to UATX's Forbidden Courses students on June 26, 2023 in Dallas, Texas. The Forbidden Courses bring together courageous thinkers and students to explore the great human questions of our time.

Anti-Racism, John McWhorter, Victimhood, Woke Ideology -

John McWhorter: The FULL Interview on Anti-racism, Victimhood, Testing, and Woke Language.

John McWhorter: The FULL Interview on Anti-racism, Victimhood, Testing, and Woke Language.

Professor John McWhorter, author of "Woke Racism," argues that condescending leftist ideology hurts black people. I learned a lot from this full, half-hour interview with Columbia linguist John McWhorter. He argues that "Woke Racism" hurts black people in many ways: from treating them as incapable of logic, to calling for abolition of tests, to insisting that violent kids stay in schools. He says that all these ideas are propped by a religion-like ideology that "requires that you sequester your brain for illogical thinking." ------------------------------------- 0:34:19 2023-07-09T11:10:57Z

CONTROVERSIAL Conversation Between Man & Trans Woman About Gender

CONTROVERSIAL Conversation Between Man & Trans Woman About Gender
In Sydney, Australia, a man and a trans woman discuss gender identity beginning with the claim, “We should no longer use the word ‘gender’.” Participants consider sex vs. gender, trans as a mental illness, gender affirmation, detransitioning, and compelled speech. The two have vastly different views but surprisingly find points of agreement. At the end, the trans woman says this conversation has been one of the best in Australia. “We’ve seen some pretty ugly scenes of protests and what have you, especially in Sydney and other places in the recent month or so… a series of public discourse around LGBTQ issues that hasn’t been a great reflection on us in general.” Chapters 00:00 - Teaser 0:38 Claim 1: "We should no longer use the word 'gender'." 10:00 Claim 2: "Everyone's gender identity should be confirmed." 27:12 Ending remarks ⸺SUPPORT MY WORK⸺ Newsletter | https://boghossian.substack.com/ Donate | https://www.nationalprogressalliance.org/donate/ ⸺LINKS⸺ Website | https://peterboghossian.com/ National Progress Alliance | https://www.nationalprogressalliance.org/ Resignation Letter | https://peterboghossian.com/my-resignation-letter ⸺BOOKS⸺ “How To Have Impossible Conversations” | https://www.amazon.com/dp/0738285323/ref=cm_sw_r_api_i_7DPKY2S21SSNAV8PCBW3_0 “A Manual For Creating Atheists” | https://www.amazon.com/Manual-Creating-Atheists-Peter-Boghossian/dp/1939578094/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1664805100&sr=1-2 ⸺SOCIAL MEDIA⸺ Twitter | https://twitter.com/peterboghossian Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/peter.boghossian/ TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@peterboghossian All Socials | https://linktr.ee/peterboghossian __________ #PeterBoghossian #transwomen #lgbtq

Reality vs. Trans Ideology | Helen Joyce & Peter Boghossian

Reality vs. Trans Ideology | Helen Joyce & Peter Boghossian
Helen Joyce is causing a lot of trouble. YouTube recently removed her conversation with Jordan Peterson (due to vague accusations of “hate speech” and “inciting violence”) and the BBC doesn’t invite her on air anymore. Among her heresies, she is guilty of believing there are two sexes and saying it out loud. Helen, an Irish journalist, bestselling author, and director of advocacy at Sex Matters, spoke to Peter Boghossian about the differences between men and women. In many arenas, the differences don’t matter, but they are a matter of consequence regarding women’s privacy, vulnerability, and physical competition. Peter and Helen discuss the definition of sex, why trans men should be allowed in women’s spaces, the tragedy of the commons, fa’afafine, evolution, the “thought-terminating cliché,” the tribal fear of rejection, the cultivation of mental illness, why institutions are losing their North Stars, and much more.
