Here’s how Kokesh listens to people that disagree with him. My comment contained no personal insults, just a critique of his plan and a short explanation as to why it would necessarily violate libertarian/voluntaryist property norms/ethics. I had read his platform thoroughly before commenting. His response:

I do not think you attacked what you didn't understand; I think you gave a critique but chose words that got Adam upset. Perhaps that is why it is necessary to be politically incorrect.

You have a great point! So many people who don't care about what you saying, same will understand which is great, actually.
this is showing patience and to listen what are people saying around you. Don't live in virtual world of smartphones etc. Listen to people and talk to people, those who disagree with you...have bright further

Aren't you the dude who wants to dissolve the federal government with an executive order if you get elected President? If so..

That's the idea! Please check out the platform at KokeshForPresident.com

Will do. I listened to you on Stefan Molyneux's podcast one time! You guys were debating on open borders. You both have the same goal, but different methods of getting there. You're awesome man.

I do not agree..

I am not American so I can't vote for you but I support you. Who sits in the Oval office has major implecations for the entire world as US foreign policy is not shy from empire politicking. I just hope that you would not accept that just because a policy is in place it must continue. They told Trump he can't win many times. It only served to embolden him. Do not let anybody tell you it can't be done! You can win! Never play by the traditional rules of the political class because only under those rules would such a victory be impossible.

Its simply exercising individual's freedom. Just simply respect each other's opinions and views to avoid some conflict and misunderstanding. :)

If I say I respect someones opinion on self-ownership/individual freedom, but after that I go vote for some politician that will violate that person's self-ownership........or maybe I become the ruler that violates that person's self-ownership/individual freedom .......than all the words of respect are just empty. I would only pay lip service to someone's self-ownership/individual freedom but my deed's speak of the total opposite i.m.h.o.

This is why I like Adam Kokesh. Respecting others and understanding the views of those we disagree with is important. More than that, compassion and caring about the person is critical to showing that respect. Adam behaves with compassion not just because he's trying to change minds, but he seems to actually care about the person too. I feel that's the biggest thing most of us are missing and why the world is as messy as it is today.

Funny, because Adam's Veteran's for Liberty page censors Ben Swann videos they don't like.

I just did an interview (fourth or fifth one) at Anarchapulco. Always had a great working relationship with him. I'm not sure what you're talking about and I don't run that page.

Well done, wonderful initiative
I do not know how to be different if the principle is justice !!
Great post

You're on your point! There will always be people who don't care about what you talking, but not all are the same which is great, actually.
It's about patience and to listen what are people talking around you. Don't live in virtual world of smartphones etc. Listen to people and talk to people, those who disagree with you... respect their opinions too. It's on us to make Earth a better place to live. Have a nice day - @tonac :D

I have learned a lot from watching your work, Adam, & have attempted to clean up my act & treat people with love & respect. Our family & I have benifitted vastly for it. People do not care how much you know untill they know how much you care.

I shall try some them tips, it should be useful to implement them at the right times, cheers!

Interesting ideas, thank you for sharingyour views @adamkokesh

please keep it coming adam!!!!!!

keep it up adam

I think that is what freedom is all about. I might not agree with your views but I have to respect them. In the same way I want you to respect my views even though you might not agree with them. We can agree to disagree.

Cangklang that hai menyanyi ngen meulatang 😂

Just awesome video.I appreciate this video.And many thanks for sharing such a blog.
Keeep it up

Glad I found you on here Adam. Im new to this so......

good dtube post thank for shearing

Very good great video, solid tips fantastic & impressed!

I like to follow and befriend people of different views I find it not only educational but more rewarding than just being in a echo chamber.

Freedom they say is it given.... It is taken

You might be one of the first channel on Dtube.

Nice .. liked it

When life gives you lemons make lemonade! 😃 @swt3df1

Nice..

Great points! It's back to the golden rule again: Treat people how you would like to be treated.

Very good post me gusta mucho de verdad

Listen to me. I vote. I want to believe. I hope you got that mess in Texas cleaned up and didn't get a felony conviction because I like your message and want to support you and would love to see your name on a ballet. I really want to believe.

Great! I'm already a felon and it's not a problem.

I didn't think you could even run for, not for president if you had a felony conviction. All I know is something has to give, this isn't the America I pledged allegiance to as a child nor the America I swore an oath to defend as did you. Good luck in your endeavors and come visit us down here in South Texas / North Mexico (as I call it) when you get a chance. Be warned tho. We have a saying here in Corpus Christi.. come on vacation leave on probation. Other than that it's a nice sleepy backwards incorporated fascist little fishing village.

Respect

Great!

Beautiful dog my bro

Listening more when you face them whom disagree is learn more about their thought, dignity and also their weakness. It's best way to 'conquered' them when your turn to talk has come. Someone said that "Knowledge speak, wisdom listening". Awesome...

I like to read every post you...Upvote and follow you!

Thank you. It's hard to do in today's world and so important. It's the only way the citizenry will overcome. Have a blessed evening.

We'll said Adam
Keep them coming bro :)

great video, solid tips

very good!!

Very good post me gusta mucho de verdad

I really hate when someone gets so upset when you disagree with them, that they become so irate, call names, and lose all logical reasoning and common sense.

@adamkokesh Greetings know and friendship my brother comes from aceh-indonesia

Gorgeous! Thank you!


plz watch my video

Who gives a damn about them what i want to do i will do that ...why Care about people who dont understand you

listening is such an important skill even when it's not pleasurable..

😢

I have common ground with all of my friends (or else they wouldn't be my friends); however, there are always varying degrees of disagreement between us. For me, these disagreements are learning experiences... Life is much more interesting when one is surrounded by a diversity of opinion.

One thing that I have learned, which has made me able to maintain lasting friendships with people with extremely different political opinions, is that at the individual level, none of it matters... their vote will not decide an election and as a non-voter, neither will mine.

Thanks man great video!

👏

You are definitely right Every one of us should believe freedom and freedom of speech must be people's right. Thanks for sharing.

fantastic & impressed!

Agreeing to disagree is valuing the relationship more than the opinion because at the end of the day people are people and opinions are opinions so what is more important? :)

Very inspiring Adam!

Lol I can better explain how to do that. It's my daily job.

boss nice work i realy love that thanks man

You have a terrific dog , here in north afrika trucks are different they dont look like there, i mean smaller,absolutly true we need to exchange idea and not fight because the difference opinion even if the second part is worng, in a clever way.

Aaa what a lovely doggo!

apparently the dog walk there is patrolled by armed security, better pick up your dog shit.

Great video @adamkokesh! People mostly think or react emotionally. So when you take the time to hear them out and listen be present and show that you care it really helps. Talk to them hear them. This is a person they have been fooled into believing something that is false. It's not their fault and you were fooled as well. Stop treating them as your enemy and treat them as a person. If they are really hostile for no reason then you don't have to engage with them. If they are coming at you with real concerns and authentically hear them out. It takes patience, grace, and empathy. They are not a math problem, don't treat them as if they are. I believe you and Larken Rose are some of the best I have seen at doing this. Thank you for what you continue to do. I'm trying to live this as well. P.s. it was great seeing you at Anarachpuclo. I going have to actually vote this time around. (It might make a difference for once)

This is insightful, my mum needs to see this Thanks @adamkokesh. Thank you @maloneyj55 too

I love it that you are here on DTUBE Adam! I'm done with the other one!

Yes. Listening is not only beneficial for the listener in understanding another, it can also be beneficial for the speaker in understanding their own point of view. Talk therapy :)

You're on your point! There will always be people who don't care about what you talking, but not all are the same which is great, actually.
It's about patience and to listen what are people talking around you. Don't live in virtual world of smartphones etc. Listen to people and talk to people, those who disagree with you... respect their opinions too. It's on us to make Earth a better place to live. Have a nice day @mhyeasin
