I saw Gregory Sadler at a grocery store in Milwaukee yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

He's a mega autist who comes off as "not that much of an autist" in his videos leading people to mistakenly engage with him as if he's just a normal person who will react how normal people do but instead will REEE at any occasion. I saw a good explanation of his behaviour on a previous thread

> He's trapped between a few things like autism and probably anger and mild NPD or sociopathy making him have extra disdain for plebs, and other like anons have said boomer autism making him have way too sensitive a detector for dumb plebs and ingrates. But on top of that he's also a 90s liberal boomer and has no ability to develop a cynical asshole worldview that is at least stable and lets him make fun of shit. All the screenshots indicate he is trying to force himself to be a pro trans liberal talking points Jon Stewart in 2003 guy, but in a world where he's alone and constantly surrounded by morons he hates. So he is an perpetually irritated boomer liberal instead of becoming a stable cynical autistic asshole who can laugh about it all.That would be my guess.

I don’t think he’s strictly a Hegelian. He’s one of those guys who tries to praise every single philosophy even the ones that contradict one another.

I feel bad for him. Imagine what a psy-op it must be for your son to come out as a tranny. There are just so many ways ordinary decent people are attacked spiritually in this fucked up epoch. Before women can think straight, they are taught to be self-degrading whores and to desensitize themselves to killing their own unborn children, youths are taught to glorify self-destructive hedonism and to participate in things that are intensely humiliating and that no adult in their right mind would normally consent to, but now there is a permanent record (social media) of everything you've ever done so they get "trapped" in the degenerate retard adolescent versions of themselves before their brains are fully formed. They can never move beyond permanent adolescence, glorification of irresponsibility. The only culture they experience is infinitely permissive, degeneracy-enabling. The only morality and higher thoughts they're allowed to have are "isn't it great liberalism and progressivism let gays be gay and let women fuck whoever they want?," just a refined form of the cultural degeneracy. Their media? All children's media and reprocessed childhood nostalgia from generations they aren't even a part of. Their families are destroyed as everyone is now an irresponsible slut (being a whore is good and if you even mildly criticize it, even in your own daughter or mother, you are evil for suppressing her "liberty"), a porn and masturbation addict (all porn and masturbation are always good and if you even mildly criticize them, you are evil etc.) with degenerate fetishes (wanting to eat shit and facefuck your wife until she pukes is just "self-expression," criticizing it is evil). If you manage to get a partner there's an 80%+ chance of divorce if you're typical semi-secular middle class, and a 90%+ chance your partner will be a self-flagellating self-hating deeply neurotic shrill over-politicized freak, taking several medications just to function. And after all that, even if you manage to maintain a healthy family, your children will cut their genitals and breasts off and your own partner will weaponize this against you and make it so that if you say a single word about it being bad, your wages will be garnished to pay for it and you'll never see your mutilated brainwashed child again.

Normies can't even formulate thoughts about raising standards for behavior or education, because that would be uncool at the social/cultural everyday level, evil at the moral/intellectual/political level, and pointless and despair-inducing regardless, even if they do resist the peer pressure to conform long enough to formulate real criticisms and set themselves apart from the madness. There is no reward for standing outside the orgyporgy and trying to get your bearings. There is ONLY the orgyporgy. It's unfathomable to even leave it. You can't even think the un-thought "my son should not cut off his penis and my ex-wife is mentally and spiritually unwell."

You see, Hegelianism can easily accommodate transgender ideology. You can twist transgender ideology as a moment in the dialectical movement of the Spirit or some such. You’d never be able to do the same with Aristotle or Aquinas, hence why nobody has ever tried to subvert Aristotle and Aquinas. They are insubversible philosophies.

That's honestly a really good way of putting it. After watching a few of his videos you can detect a kind of haughty, dismissive attitude underneath the "I'm just a regular-guy vibe" that he initially gives off.

And silly as this might sound: There's something kind of irritating about the degree to which he values providing explanations and interpretations that are seen as "rigorous" and that are accepted by mainstream academia. Like the guy never says anything groundbreaking because he is too afraid that some Aristotle scholar somewhere will call him a sloppy thinker. He's more or less a librarian.

Because it's ridiculous whining.

If you want grandchildren you need to have at least three kids of your own, not just one (correct me if i am wrong, but sounds like he has only a son?). One child will likely be LGBT (this is the child that is given to "the church," in a medieval sense), one child will be otherwise celibate or childless (this is symbolically the child who dies of famine or war or poverty), and your third or more child is yours, you have statistically beaten the odds stacked against fertility by having more than two children and are more likely to reap the dividend with each additional kid.

Why would a man ever maintain any sort of relationship with invalid offspring or the woman who poisoned them? If your kid's not gonna give you grandchildren, they're really not worthwhile when you can apply your limited remaining possible effort towards uplifting those of your children who do show promise as potential parents... or simply drinking yourself to death.

that was a jew shit. there was no evidence present and jew courts convicted because he converted to Scientology.
this is actually an argument for rape. since the courts don't care about actions, neither should you. rape away. plenty go unreported and unsolved. better then getting 30 years because some jews say so with no evidence
