IMHO: Great political commentator; perhaps not the greatest logician.

See:

https://mises.org/library/molyneux-problem

>Molyneux is by no means stupid: quite the contrary. Therein, I suggest, lies the source of the problems of his book. Because of his facile intelligence, he thinks that he has a talent for philosophical argument and need not undertake the hard labor of learning how such arguments are constructed. Unfortunately for him and his book, he is mistaken.

All that said light years ahead of the mainstream media and worthy of some support.

Ironically, while all this is true, it's not an argument.

Though Molyneux is by far not the only one to be guilty of this, or the worst abuser of the pretense of philosophising, just more visibly guilty of it. Probably because he wants to put his ego across more than he's invested in the actual specifics of each argument, it comes across as phony.
I will warn all /pol/acks that sincerity isn't a preventative measure against pseudo-philosophy. A lot of people are sincere enough in belief of a position to make pseudo-philosophy work as arguments for bad positions, usually moral relativist positions. Look to the type of people who say sexual deviancy is okay, or who excuse racial predation against outgroups while decrying racial predation on their pet ingroup. Those people are the opposite of "useful idiots", they're useless idiots who only obfuscate things.

Though Ireland's does too, as does Germany's and Canada's, for completeness.

Admittedly it's hard to see past the mainstream positions on the Jewish question when Israel removes so much kebab and the average GTKRWN commenter is a meme-spouting faggot who can't do anything but build up the "white privilege" boogeyman of the Jews.

Shouting memes and prattling on about the shoah converts morons. Real education about the way things stand relies on the understanding of inter-group competition, and following that, a pointing out and noticing of the patterns of representation in left wing movements.

It seems like you're uncomfortable with certain arguments or dismiss them as "pseudo-philosophy" because they're morally relativist in your view. What's the different between philosophy and pseudo-philosophy?

Philosophy must concern itself with eternal truths.
Post-facto rationalisations aren't philosophical arguments.

Pseudo-philosophy would be arguments applied to knowingly seal off certain trains of thought without following the main logic of the central premises.
It's what the TRS people would call "tactical nihilism", as deployed for things like knowledge of race differences, though lots of people too attached to edginess and hatred use tactical nihilism when it comes to doing predatory things against other races, or against innocent individuals with the justification that it being for the good of the race or whatever other ultimately socially-constructed collective is at stake, switching from the position that things can be only justified situationally to the position that certain positions, most commonly, the "benefit" of "the race", can be extrapolated as a universal idea underpinning a system of morality that is not subjective.

Ironically my departure from the cul-de-sac of racialism was precipitated the same way my political journey through libertarianism and paleo-conservatism began, with questions of morals and individualism, things I won't abandon because it's not the in-thing with a bunch of paranoid, degenerate misfits on the internet.
