      In re; Harris v. Peterson. Let's face it, Sam's task is far more difficult than Peterson's. When you're selling tickets for life after death and being reunited with past loved ones who's not buying? Add to that a claimed Justice for all those who have wronged you in life and JBP's product sells itself.

    Sam is getting a lot of shit lately. I've noticed it in all the comments of every clip he's in. Used to be all positive, and now it's basically 50/50. People whining about TDS. He doesn't like Trump. Get over it.
    I've been a huge fan since 2006 or whenever it was. One of the huge influences in my life. I don't agree with him on everything, but even in those instances, he makes me think and analyze my own position. Brilliant man.

Am I supposed to believe they were Sam Harris's old listeners now harris changed. 😂 Sam has so much value to provide for life if they listen to him properly.

      The problem with Sam's TDS is it turned a portion of his neocortex into the amber jelly you find on a canned ham.

    • @justaman54
      @justaman54 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The issue with Harris's TDS is that it exposed his rationale behind some of the positions he advocates for. It turns out that the biggest motivating factor in his thinking is his fear/anxiety. He was scared of a Christian theocracy so he argued for a hard-line atheist position, despite the fact there are some serious arguments for God's and the benefits of religion in some aspects. He was scared of COVID so he argued for strict lockdowns and vaccine mandates, despite some contradictory scientific perspectives. He is scared of Trump destroying our democracy so he argued for silencing him and his supporters. This is not necessarily an issue in it of itself but he revealed that his is willing to say or ignore anything that helps his positions. So people feel that he's been grifting when he emphasizes the importance of science, truth and rationality when through his actions he's shown that he's willing to forgo all three to further his cause.
