THE VOICE OF REASON
Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.

Davis Aurini in conversation with Claire Khaw: Feminism and Western Decline
@ntfem I've got to say you came off very reasonable and intelligent on Davis stream tonight
When the topic was changed or he made a statement that wasn't particularly pertinent or lucid then shut up. He then went quiet and it was up to you to take over the discussion.... He effectively gave you nothing to hook upon.
You hear it a lot. The guest has to improvise rather than say can you repeat or WTF are you talking about.
Both of you need to take your straightjackets and blinkers off before discussing MGTOW. His comments on " if a wife tells me yo vote democrat then I'd tell her to pack her bags" or " if a wife used NFD then every guy should use nuclear option and go to jail/ refuse to pay alimony" etc were so crass and stupid they were embarrassing and cringeworthy. Yes. I agree. That was when he said he was demanding maturity in politics then wanted the Kid Rocks into the senate. Reminds me of when I really did want Alice Cooper to become president when he brought out his "Elected' single and video back in the 70s.... Childish.
He put you on the spot a couple of times with silence. You reacted very well. Trained and polite.
ReplyDeleteWhich bits were they? Memory all gone!

I noticed he gave me the whole show. His other podcasts have multiple guests.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind discussing something else with him.
Even as I know no one else will listen to it!
I thought it quite ironic that he felt that politics needed more mature thought.... Yet some of his thoughts were so unbelievably immature themselves.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't particularly impressed by him. What is he, a kind of shock jock or something. Saying stuff for reaction or is he serious.
What he said about Kid Rock was completely asinine.
