This definitely one of my favourite ever interviews: Steven Bartlett from Diary of a CEO asked me excellent questions and challenged me to clarify a lot of my positions.
We talked about:
Why the promotion of victimhood hurts people
How political labels are used as weapons
Why I am neither left or right-wing
Do we need role models who look like us?
Why Gen Z are the way they are
Why I think the West is headed in the wrong direction
What the level of debt says about our culture
What Marxism is, where it comes from and who is teaching it to our children
Why the West is divided and can we do anything about it?
Andrew Tate as a symptom of pathological men vs. women narrative
Can you be a free speech absolutist?
Is the West losing its geopolitical dominance?
Why the US election matters
Why “tax the rich” is a pointless slogan
Why illegal immigration must end
Trade-off denialism
Wished there were more conversations like that Gen X this used to be quite common not the length but at least a listening answering curious conversation to discover each others nuanced views
For that you can’t consider yourself a victim
Because that is a prison with no doors where hopeless dwells and dreams go to die
Konstantin: Your perspective is refreshing - I would not say it is different than what your listeners believe - I think you are able to articulate our beliefs better than we can - because you have experienced living under communism and many of your listeners haven't. Your experience in boarding school was a great builder in your both your character and education. We appreciate your candid honesty and wisdom - Big Time (as an American would say)
