Hi guys, I have recently found this young man's channel on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRM6XPcm5tS1dYKgQXMgKbQ He does conservative satire and I found his content pretty clever and entertaining. I think it might be nice to give his channel some love and attention because goodness knows, leftists have full monopoly when it comes to political satire and comedy. Byron P.S. In case you're wondering: No, I'm not him and I don't even know who he is.

Most entertainment that I'm aware of (TV shows, movies, etc) are typically considered interesting because they undertake some form of conflict, a conflict which typically arises from subjective, whim-based moral opinions. There is often not a clear "good guy" or clear "bad guy", but rather both morally justify their actions to oppose the other. The characters usuaiing can't/don't resolve their conflict in a mutually-beneficial agreement, but rather resolve the problem by force or some form of deception. The audience, also having a morality that is subjective and whim-based, is in awe trying to determine how the characters can resolve the problem, and feels the entire scenario is a gray area so that a proper resolution isn't possible. It seems that with an objective basis for morality, resolving the issue is much less complicated, but if that were to happen, the movie would be over in five minutes, and no one would pay to see it. When we achieve a rational and free society, identifying these will be second nature for the mainstream. Given that it seems that entertainment is based on seemingly unresolvable conflict given today's understanding of morality, I'm wondering, what are others' thoughts on what entertainment would look like in a rational society? I'm having difficulty formulating an intriguing plot for a story without the above requirement, but that could very easily be my lack of imagination.. I'm certainly no writer or story-creator.

I like It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia because of the memorable characters, unique humor and just outright bizarre mentality of the show. Favorite character is probably Mac. Do you like the show? If you do, favorite character? If you haven't seen it yet, it's available on Netflix and season 10 starts on January 14 at 10PM EST on FXX in the United States at least. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

It occurred to me that "Hard Wired" by Tracy Chapman is a fine description of growing up in the Statist matrix, especially the line "All the secrets and the mysteries / You've been selfishly withholding".

Stefan says it well. The ferocity with which others bash him is bad. Personally I don't like his music. But I do consider him a talented young man. And he fills in for a market which is quite an achievement.
