>Stefan Molyneux
Shouldn't that tell you everything you need to know?

Lmao that cover art looks terrible

>da art of
Pure trash

It has 4/5 stars on amazon.
Western civilizations last stand was a crushing defeat.

haven't read it, but given how bad UPB was, I'm going to guess "fuckawful"

AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

Molyneux is only a "philosopher" in the sense that syllogistic logic is considered afield of philosophy. He's more of a pundit/debater than a strict philosopher

That being said this book is probably trash. Molyneux is the biggest fucking drama queen of all time

He says he's an objectivist and Aristotelian. What does that even mean?

Lauren Southern's """book""" has like a 4 star rating too.

I mean, why can't there be more people akin to John Jacque Rosseau or some passionate writer in the conservative movement, when all this is stuff written by toddlers. I bet their was some precocious philosopher at 15 who wrote better than this schlock.

Makes sense that YouTube and Amazon share audiences.
Well, having 800k subscribers doesn't give these people any credibility in academian circles. For s-sure.

Because the modern "conservative" movement is unironically founded by a bunch of contrarian teenagers trying to "stick it to the man." They're no different then any other childish counter-culture that we've seen a million times.
Perhaps in 20 or so years you might see some serious and passionate and intelligent conservative writers but for right now, you're stuck with people like Lauren and Milo.

Would you compare this to the early Marxist movement where people didn't really read philosophy in-depth but just wrote scathing criticism? Or is this far worse?

At least Milo used to have interesting things to say.

lol, what a literal old-fashioned classic facepalm.

Um, "clean your room"?

It's rated by people that already are fans and agree with them.

"Lol I suck dicks and fuck black guys abortion is murder"

So this...is the power of conservatard "thought"

He is the biggest hypocrite labeling himself a Catholic. Go to 1:40.
