Newest Mindgasms Podcast with the philosopher named Ben Burgis on the internet famous clinical psychologist, Jordan Peterson’s definition of and belief in God, along with the world tour for his new book called Beyond Order, sequel to his “12 Rules for Life,” self-help book. We also discuss ridiculous claims that right-wing political commentators like Ben Shapiro make about Kant’s work supposedly being the now widely hated and strawmanned Critical Race Theory. I talk with Ben about the famous Hegelian/Lacanian/Marxist philosopher named Slavoj Zizek’s critique of the massively popular anti-capitalist Korean Netflix show called Squid Game, as well.

Check out my last Mindgasms Podcast with the philosopher, socialist and podcaster named Ben Burgis. We discuss his recent debate with the so-called Conservative populist, Trump supporter and political commentator, Charlie Kirk, who is the head of the Turning Points USA Conservative nonprofit organization/think tank/lobbying group. Also, we talk about recent high profile instances of cancel culture, including the comedian named Dave Chappelle getting labelled as transphobic for his latest comedy special, and the R and B artist, R. Kelly’s music getting banned from Youtube because he was found to be guilty of something like sexual assault and sex with one or more minors.

Check out my last Mindgasms Book Review on rule 3 of the famous public intellectual/clinical psychologist, Jordan Peterson’s newest book called Beyond Order. This is the sequel to his “12 Rules for Life.” Apparently 12 weren’t enough, so he came up with 12 more rules. I’m not a big fan of the first book, but I like this one a little more. It has some rules that make a lot of sense, and others that are dumb. This third rule is in the former category for me. It is “Do not hide unwanted things in the fog.” Like most of Peterson’s rules that are actually good, the meaning is obvious. Don’t hide your feelings. Supressing them is unhealthy, so you should be honest about them. Of course, he ties this into his broader Christian religious message in a way that is really reaching. Also, this rule is actually more about speaking out against what he labels as woke “Postmodern Neo-Marxist” social justice warriors whining about gender pronouns on college campuses. Free speech is all well and good, but Peterson is extremely hyperbolic about this supposed threat.

Check out my last Mindgasms Podcast with the Woke Centrist AKA Dusty Cubes AKA Dustin Cubit on the whiteness studies author Robin DiAngelo’s (author of “White Fragility”) newest book called “Nice Racism,” the antiracist Ibram X. Kendi’s infamous book called “How to be an Antiracist,” along with how public intellectuals like James Lindsay are conflating these types of crazy extremist authors and books with critical race theory and spreading misinformation about it.

Mindgasms Podcast with Scazio AKA Sheezan Alamgir, Tubin AKA Chris James and the Woke Centrist AKA Dusty Cubes AKA Dustin Cubit on episodes 4–9 of season 1 of Squid Game, the Korean Netflix show that is a super obvious critique of capitalism. The plot thickens. A cop has infiltrated the game, posing as an employee/soldier. There also is a doctor who is spying and participating in the game, while really working with the employees/soldiers. He also is running a secret scheme with them on the side to sell the dead players’ organs. We discover the identity of the Front Man as well, and find out who is in charge of the whole operation, above the Front Man in the hierarchy. The final game comes down to the last 2 survivors, who have to decide whether they are willing to murder in order to pay off their debts. The question of whether people are fundamentally good or bad, or a complex mixture of both, is also answered.
