Is Toxic Masculinity Real? A New Insight [briefing #1]
Most men who invest in the stock market lose money. Most also don’t feel they deserve wealth and are willing to put their earnings at risk. In this video, I explain what this has to do with toxic masculinity, a term invented to attack the male competitive drive.

Why Does Inflation Happen? [ep. #33]
Watch on or
Inflation leads to recession, and recession leads to depression (massive unemployment). Western economies are trying to avoid doom by inflating the money supply to increase government spending, and by opening the borders to bring in more potential consumers for the economy. But both are temporary fixes that cannot solve the problem, namely that materialism has run out of steam. If we want to survive, we must return our peoples to more traditional lifestyles.

White Men Are Stupid in Commercials [ep. #32]
Watch on or
In his own words, Ricky Gervais makes himself the butt of his jokes. He’s the silly white man who gets things wrong. But he wasn’t the first to practice self-deprecating comedy. Stars like John Cleese (Fawlty Towers) or Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) preceded him. Being able to laugh at oneself is certainly a confidence-boosting trait—until it becomes anti-white racism. Has comedy that makes white men look stupid gone too far?

Find Your Courage by Training for Internal Validation [ep. #30]
Watch on or
I discuss internal validation, how not to succumb to external addictions (such as winning praise, awards, prizes, titles from complete strangers who don’t care about you), and I show that even Arnold Schwarzenegger (Mr. Universe) fell to these addictions. In the end, internal validation is found by building internal qualities such as strength, courage, and other skills and competencies.

IQ Is Destiny
Let’s start off with a bold statement: A people’s average cognitive ability determines what type of society it can uphold. Based on a people’s cognitive ability, I identify three main types of societies: Free Societies, Despotic Societies, and Hunter-Gatherer Societies, and one exemption: High-Cognitive Networks.
Free Societies (Average IQ 90-110)If the people’s IQ averages between 90-110, you may have a free market economy. It requires people to think and act for themselves to a large degree. Ci...

Do Western Economies Rely on Ponzi Schemes? [ep. #29]
Watch on or
What do U.S. higher education fees have in common with housing pricing in The Netherlands? Both are based on projected household incomes. In other words, you pay the price of whatever loan you are expected to be able to pay back. And as incomes start to drop in a slumping economy, the West is a Ponzi scheme waiting to blow up.
Three Sigmas to the East
About 1-in-50 people may pass the Mensa test requirement of having an IQ of 130. But at the third sigma to the right of the mean, it’s 1-in-600 (145 and up). And at the fourth, it’s 1-in-30,000. In Dutch, we call such people hoogbegaafd, which means highly gifted, but I despise this term. The intelligent individual is burdened, not gifted. I prefer the phrase “high-cognitive person� or HCP as in hiccup.
IQ tests measure how well one grasps visual, verbal, or numerical abstractions but IQ doesn’t ...
