Moore's occultism and Hellenic snake god worship might seem a bit quaint to a materialist, but he does support the Absolute Boy (even though he doesn't vote, because bing bong something anarchism lol)

drat I love listening to Moore's voice. It's so weird and learned and deep and it's got an accent that would sound like a dumb person from anyone else. :allears:

"Oynstoyn" instead of "Einstein". :allears:

This is where I remind everyone that not only does Moore claim to worship a snake god, if you do a little research it's one historians think was never actually worshipped, it's just one people made up to gently caress with someone

The most clever thing Moore has done

How the hell can you believe that a predetermined universe with no free will doesn't absolve you of the moral consequences of your actions and inactions? You would have literally no choice in the matter. It's like saying that the apple falling on Newton's head, or the iceberg the Titanic hit was being unethical. Either they don't actually believe what they're talking about, or they haven't thought it through as much as they think they have.

Wow! I can’t believe you, forums poster Red Minjo, are the first person to pose these interesting thoughts w/r/t free will and predestination! Clearly nobody else has thought about this as much as you have.

I mean, it's there in the interview, from about 35 mins to 50 mins. If you don't buy Alan/Will's summary of it, then there's the roughly 300-year philosophical history of the topic that you can turn to. Your glib dismissal of the subject will not change or deprecate any of that except in your own head. Hopefully you can understand why no one in The Chapo Trap House Thread on The Something Awful Forums wants to open this :can: with you

After looking at Google for several minutes I'm willing to change my complaint from "this argument is dumb" to "the argument that was raised in a podcast that is normally fine for dumbasses like me is defining 'determinism' in a way that a layperson would not expect it to be used, and not making note of the difference in definition."

And maybe I was too busy being upset with my dog for peeing in the house to properly pay attention to the podcast, but it seemed more like they "stated" the position rather than "summarized" the position.

Having very little knowledge of the man prior to this interview, I definitely wondered for a few minutes whether it was just Felix doing a bit.
