Monson: Brian Stann brainwashed by the military

I like Monson. Always have

 I always enjoyed watching Monson fight, until his last fight that is.  Still, the "brainwashed" comment is pure shit, and gets regurgitated a LOT.

Monson is an idiot....Dude is a frigging anarchist commie, but he has NOOOOO PROBLEM taking advantage of our capitalist system and living well off of it.


I've also seen him fight live.....ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....Embarrassing, slow, gassed in 1 minute, Bob Sapp like standup, except he can't hurt anybody with it. Just AWFUL to watch.


Never again.

Monson is brainwashed by the US Education System which gave him him degress. You know, that system of US Government that Monson supposedly hates so much indoctorinated him and awarded him a degree for it. Nothing sadder than an aging hipster.

He should be called the "Slowman". He always hates capitalism so much that he got a corporate logo tattooed on his body. You can't make this shit up.

Monson is a dumbass....and he should never fight again...

TopGrinder -  I have to agree with Monson. Stann is severely brainwashed. The UFC is in cahoots with the millitary and vice versa. Their target markets are identical


Who says Monson isn't brainwashed? I can play the EXACT same game and apply everything he said towards Monson and it would match.

Its pretty ironic that an Anarchist calls someone "brainwashed".....


couldnt have said it better

Well you have to think that the network of "anarchists" is somewhat less well organized and not an institution like the military so I don't know if sitting around possibly getting high talking about philosophy with your bros is the same as having the dude from full metal jacket yell at you all day for 6 weeks. But I wouldn't call Stann or anyone in the military "brainwashed" because that's a loaded term. You could also say "trained".

 The anti-capitolism guy ? Who accepts money from corporate sponsors ? lol

God what a dope Phone Post

It's stylish on the internet to like libertarianism, anarcho-capitalism, and Chomsky-esque left libertarianism. It's also commonplace for people to think this belief gives them some sort of special insight into the world. It seems Monson has just tapped into this narcissism and now believes himself a fighting Mises.


Oh well.

The UFC , military and Jesus collide in the shirt above.

C4mac - Fast forward to the 8:40 mark, this show has one of the most ridiculously long self aggrandizing intro's in all of podcastdom.


LOL you aren't the first to say that but I think the intro actually got shorter recently. I would prefer maybe a minute or two at most but if you skip it the rest is good.

Is that a real shirt? And if so, would you mind posting a link where I can buy one? That shirt is all kinds of awesome!

Oh well.

I think that's true for everything though. People just love to hear themselves preach.

Very true. If he weren't a fighter, nobody would care. I'm going to go ahead and continue not caring despite his profession.

Hey lets get rid of government and law enforcement. Im sure the entire world will band together and sing kumbaya instead of the group with the most guns shooting every fucking thing that doesnt adhere to its rules.

Anarchists are fucking morons. Grow up.

 I thought Monson was an anarcho-communist???


Left libertarian? No matter, really. It's great in theory, but it has never been applied in the real world (debatable, someone will likely bring up a brief time in Spain). It's easy to say you've got the one system that works when your one system has never been applied on a large scale.

Monson doesn't know what he's talking about...



He most likely started listening to some punk rock back who think that they're intellectuals because they have a mic and now he repeats a lot of the crap he hears because he can't think for himself...




Herring In A Fur Coat - On the most basic level, anarchism is not about a lack of governement and law enforcement.  It's about simply not accepting any authority above your own.  I am an anarchist, you can be one too, don't have to preach about it on youtube or spray-paint federal buildings.


I'm trying to avoid getting into a huge debate here, but you realize how this can lead to problems when you have people with competing interests living in the same community, right?

People with competing interests living in the same community leads to problems in any socio-political structure.


Of course it does, but that doesn't mean the sort of ideology you espoused is the right one. How does the society you would create settle disputes?
