For those who like to kick it old skool with a site map, here’s everything on FDR Liberated.
Introduction
Have you been defooed? Thinking of joining FDR, but wonder if it’s a cult? Here’s a brief introduction to FDR.
All you need to know about QuestEon and FDR Liberated is in 10 Questions for QuestEon.
The painfully long-winded and not particularly interesting story of me is in Well, how did I get here?
The Foundations of FDR
The essential idea behind FDR. (Your parents are bullies and you don’t love them.) The Foundation of FDR.
Why FDR was created. Molyneux says it’s merely to pry you away from a belief in the “inherent virtue of family.” That is, until you dig deeper. It’s all in Prying Them Loose.

Psychology
Observations about FDR psychology and the psychology/philosophy connection.
The Cult Question
Someone asks “is it a cult?” Someone else asks “what is a cult?” Then I write some huge article. We all have our roles to play.
Philosophy
UPB–Universally Preferable Behavior
The Promise and Failure of UPB (The Behind-the-Scenes Story)–This five-part series traces the history of Molyneux’s Universally Preferable Behaviour: A Rational Proof of Secular Ethics from conception to reception…along with a few behind-the-scenes views:
- Part 1–At war with the academics
- Part 2–The rise and fall of Danny Shahar
- Part 3–When good men do nothing
- Part 4–Other Voices
- Part 5–What’s a god to do?
Real-Time Relationships–The Logic of Love
Allison’s last card–It began as a few questions about Stefan Molyneux’s logic. By the time it was over, his book, Real-Time Relationships, the Logic of Love, was in tatters and a revealing window had been opened on the FDR community.
Molyneux’s Philosophy of (un)forgiveness–Molyneux’s podcast “The Philosophy of Forgiveness” actually offered an unintended, but fascinating insight into Molyneux’s ability to hold a grudge! I call it The Philosophy of (un)Forgiveness.
Media coverage of FDR
Links to media exposure of family breakups encouraged by FDR.
In November 2008, the UK’s Guardian newspaper broke the first story about an FDR-defooed family. Molyneux wrote a response. This article offers a line-by-line analysis of that response. (Fair warning–this is a lengthy article that offers an in-depth view of FDR.)
The BBC wanted to know–did Molyneux actually tell Tom to leave his family? Molyneux said, “No.” He was factual, but was it truthful? Molyneux, the BBC, and the Truth.
FDR and Liberating Minds–Molyneux blamed a competing Web site (instead of the role he himself plays in encouraging young adults to defoo) for the media storm. The article The defining of Liberating Minds tells the true story of a forum Molyneux tried to silence.
