Why Are Liberals More Depressed Than Conservatives? - Destiny - #618

**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
Hello, everybody. Welcome back to the show. My guest today is Destiny. He's a streamer and a YouTuber. The clash between left and right has reached unprecedented levels, and the divide continues to widen, with increasing confusion and despair amongst young people, blurred identity lines and individuals grappling to find their place. Mental health is in tatters, but for some reason, it's much worse for liberals than conservatives. Expect to learn Destiny's thoughts on his debate with Milo Yiannopoulos, his best tips to beat someone in a debate, why the landscape of political backbiting has changed, why liberals are so much more unhappy than conservatives, the societal implications of women outearning men, what mistakes young people make when judging what will make them happy, whether AI will take my job, and much more. I really enjoyed my weekend with Destiny. Some of you caught a live debate slash panel thing that we did at the Vulcan Gas Company Comedy Club, where Alex Jones booed in very drunk and started shouting at Destiny. That was quite funny. But yeah, it was a good weekend and I really appreciate Destiny's work. I think that he is a very well-meaning and well-balanced debater. And yeah, I think you'll really enjoy this one. Also, don't forget that I'm going on tour later this year. And if you want me to come to a city near you, all that you need to do is sign up and tell me where you live. We are going to be routing the tour based on the cities that we get that sign up. And that means that you can influence literally where I go. So head to chriswilliamson.live, enter there. And it means that you'll find out first when tickets and show dates are announced. I thank you. That's chriswilliamson.live.

In other other news, this episode is brought to you by House Of Macadamias. House Of Macadamias make my favorite nuts. By far the best tasting nuts that I've ever had. If you're a nut lover, if you know someone that is, they absolutely have to try this. It took over two years of taste testing and Joe Rogan, Tim Ferriss, Bret Weinstein, all have been harping on about how good they were. And it does not surprise me. It is the best tasting snack that I have found. They've vertically integrated with over 90 farmers to make the highest quality nuts available to the entire world. It's a coalition of South African farmers that have come together to invest in bringing an incredible superfood at prices and in formats that you will love. They've got an amazing range of products with no artificial ingredients or added sugar. They've got sweet, salty and savory versions. Also, if you go to houseofmacadamias.com/modernwisdom and use the code MW20 at checkout, you'll get a 20% discount and a free bottle of premium extra virgin macadamia oil with any purchase. That's houseofmacadamias.com/modernwisdom and MW20 at checkout. And in final news, this episode is brought to you by AquaTru. I am absolutely in love with my AquaTru. It's probably the best thing that I've started using over the last couple of months. It is a four stage reverse osmosis purifier. Their countertop purifiers work with no insulation or plumbing and it removes 15 times more contaminants than ordinary pitcher filters. I think that water quality is something everybody should be massively aware of, especially in America. There are some real nasties lurking in your water and this makes sure that you just don't have to worry. On top of that, it just tastes fantastic. It's fantastic for cooking with, it's great for drinking, and the filters last between six months to two years, and each set of filters makes the equivalent of four and a half thousand bottles of water. And there is a 30-day money back guarantee, so you can buy it and try it and taste it for 29 days. And if you do not like it, they will give you your money back. If you live in the United States, head to bit.ly slash drink wisdom and you will get $100 off any AquaTru purifier, which means that you can get one for under 250 bucks. That's bit.ly slash drink wisdom. But now, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Destiny.
