Chaoticoli Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 What are some of your guys' favorite videos about politics and philosophy (or anything which happens to mentally stimulating)? I really want to learn as much as I can and I am hoping all of your references will do me some good in getting started .
Magenta Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 The best media I've consumed by far with regards to politics and philosophy have been the FDR podcasts. I'm listening to each one in sequence, starting with #1 and I'm now in the low 500s. I've had very many that were so mentally stimulating, I had to sit down, pause the podcast, and think about my life. I would then take notes, rewind, and play again. How have you liked the FDR content thus far?
Chaoticoli Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 I will probably do that too. I want to really have good discussions with other people about the podcasts too. Skype or w/e is necessary to really have the best understanding of all this. I have loved it so far. It is all pretty different from what you hear in everyday life. It's a really refreshing perspective on things. It makes me feel like I have more hope in humanity when I am surrounded by large groups of other people with similar interests as my own with a lot more knowledge of ethics, politics, economics...etc. I would really like to utilize these forums better, I'm just not exactly sure where my niche is yet. I have dabbling whereever and following some threads here and there, but I would prefer a more organized approach. Although, I must say this forum is VERY organized compared to other ones I've seen.
