      Yes. We must retake the left and return it to reason. Having principle puts you in their sights. They kick you out. You see it from a distance and have this thought. Related note: even the honorable right knows it needs a vibrant left. A unipolar system tends toward maddness. https://twitter.com/kittypurrzog/status/1016530674407260161 …

      Do you have a video where you define what the “left” is that makes it so distinct from the right? And why those values are worth preserving?

      I should make one. I think the whole case is pretty easy to lay out. It can be done so the description is impartial, and each side can understand the necessity of the other.

          Second that motion. I’m right of center but a lot of the your ideas have piqued my interest @BretWeinstein same with your brother @EricRWeinstein . I’m an economist by training and some of Eric’s revelations have clicked gears into place that always seems off to me. More please!

          Left doesn't have to involve more government at all. For example, many leftists are "libertarian" when its comes to social rights.

          Do so. You could even throw a nerdy spin on it and compare the various facets of the Left by using the United Federation of Planets and the Borg Collective as representative examples. You know how all the cool kids use nerd culture in their political metaphors now days.

          One thing that I haven't seen since before the days of @JimWebbUSA is a cogent defense of liberal principles. I'd watch your video in a heartbeat. I really miss good debate with friends on the left.

          In the absence of clear definitions, I tend to think of "the left" as broadly collectivist and "the right" as broadly individualist.

          South Park expertly ended their 100th episode with a few minutes devoted to this idea. I’m not convinced it can be topped....

          I actually believe you could do such a video without it devolving into the usual “my side is for everything that is good and the opposing side is for everything that is bad” that makes up this, often shallow, genre.

          You are way more of a classical liberal than these progressive sudo communists.

          At this point in time, the RIGHT more closely resembles what the Left use to be/stand for. The actual modern Left has become authoritarian

          Peterson made a simple distinction that was pretty good- the left exists to prevent hierarchy corruption and to stand for the dispossessed. The right stands for order and necessary traditions.

          I’m assuming some basic belief that the state is somehow better to protect the people so we must give them the power and tools to protect us. Which is more totalitarian than holding corporations accountable via the free market in a more right wing solution. But corruption in both
