It also doesn't happen in a vacuum. Germany in the 1920's was in terrible shape, much worse than we could dream of right now unless we get Venezuela'd by Trump or whoever comes after him.

Step outside your paradigm.

Do you care to talk content? I can watch videos, just that if they're general documents about political history I really doubt they'll have the impact on fixing supposed partisanship on my part that you're expecting. I'm also not sure what I'm getting pigeonholed as, not that it should even matter but I can't respond adequately to comments like this because you're the only person who knows what your comments mean. Other people can guess but then they're just describing their own reflection in tinted glass.

While it's not Jordan Peterson, Sam Harris, or the Weinstein brothers I still think this video is pretty helpful. They talk atheism and religion in this podcast but also talk about the current political climate, the new left and right, and where they're at trying to stand up for classical liberalism in the US at present:

Wow, he's getting conservative in his old age. Someone's going to have to say it - he's no longer cut out to be the godfather of the progressive left!
