As someone who has depression Ive been gaslit to fuck by various ppl that I'm "not letting go, "I've a victim mentality ", I need to just meditate, do yoga, breathe, read every fucking self help book there is, have a "growth mindset", all bullshit. I can't think of one guru, one author in self help who isn't making massive buck. It's a lucrative industry that uses a sprinkle of science over a main course of horse shit. From Tony Robbins to Elkhart Tolle to sadghuru, Gabor matè, vegans and meat only, all of them are cashing in on so many ppls desperation for answers. They are the new religion, they are the new hope-sellers and so many ppl are so desperate that they'll loose all logic.
To be far everything is somewhere in between and you can't be healthy without getting a proper diet but this may not solve all your issues. Many of these" vegan' influencer's are actually plant based and are only involved for health where as actual veganism is a movement for the rights of animals not to be used by people. A lot of people have many factors creating health problems and do have to try many different things and a combination of things.
That's why I hate that "victim mindset" term all the time. The truth is, as an outsider, you (generic) _do not get to have any say_ as to whether someone _else's_ "victim "mindset"" is indeed just a mindset or is something more. It ain't your lane, shut up and listen instead and if you still don't agree then leave that particular individual human alone and worry about yourself instead.
I noticed the same thing too, regarding Russell Brand. He’s noticeably made a rightward shift. I don’t have a problem with a slant to the right but he seems to be creeping more and more each day. He very recently proclaimed himself Christian (didn’t he previously lean toward Vedic philosophy?) and now has an ad for Gold on his TH-cam channel, as does Tucker Carlson. Russell and Tucker Carlson are now bff’s. It’s like these guys got together and introduced each other to potential advertisers. I don’t need to watch both of their channels bc they’re both saying the same thing and pretty much interviewing the same people. I fear they become their own echo chambers against the very things and people they call out for having confirmation bias. I think this is happening with so many of these guys (podcasters).
None of the things you mentioned are actually aligned with traditional left or right politics. Perhaps the one thing that possibly could be considered as such would be an adoption of Christianity, but that doesn't really make sense as it doesn't directly hold any form of political leaning. There are so many forms of Christianity, it's more of an adjacent implication. This is actually part of the problem with today's cultural bubbles. I would ask specifically which values of Russell's are now traditional right wing values? I can't really think of any. There's a social pressure to adhere to prescribed doctrines these days, if you veer from any facet of these narratives you seem to get stuck with a new label implying you're somehow on the wrong team. The fact that tucker is now pointing out the inherent corruption on both sides of the political spectrum and admitting he had many things very wrong is a positive development in my opinion, he has a huge platform. Russell has always been very open about his intention with his podcast, he wanted to find common ground between political ideologies that have traditionally been at odds and I think he's done very well in this respect. In regards to advertising, there is a limited number of advertisers willing to connect themselves with such anti establishment content, these content creators are often rendered financially radioactive by the legacy/media. If you spread your lens a little wider you'll notice just how many fervently left wing creators are sharing conversations with members of right leaning platforms. The common theme is elite corporate interests aligned with government are working against the people. That's pretty far left traditionally. The establishment has actively maneuvered left wing topics to the arena of identity politics, this serves to polarize the public and shift focus from the fact the establishment has no interest in serving the people and only an interest in serving their financial masters. The public blames the other side of the socio-political spectrum for the wrongs of the world while the ones who make the laws get rich and powerful serving their masters. Ultimately the cost of living keeps increasing, people are struggling more, health in all arenas declines and people are generally less tolerant of each others views.
@@johndoe-is2fw You gotta hand it to em. It's been executed rather masterfully here in New Zealand. Key ingredient is fear, bombard people with fear, once you've got them in that state you can direct their attention to your 'scapegoat' of choice. For leftists it's Trump/Maga supporters, Russia and any other leftists that find fault with any aspect of the prescribed narrative. They falsely label these non-conforming leftists 'alt right' and attack them on claims of "adjacent to..". They do this because they cannot address the points made by these non-conformers head on. They have no argument for these because they are valid and true observations that highlight the subterfuge at play. This is also why censorship is now a must for these people, it's their last line of defense in the face of completely broken logic. These systems of control are as old as civilisation but the technology they're now being applied with is like nothing before.
The medical profession is equally guilty of costing us a lot of money and coming up with no results. I spent years being treated by mainstream medicine for depression, they tried me on every anti depressant drug on the market and even moved on to some others that weren't antidepressant drugs. So after years of this they finally decided I didn't have Clinical depression but Dysthymia instead. So now I was told to go away because I'm "drug resistant". Let's not forget the medical practices are partly funded by big pharma. Your doctor has an incentive to push their products.
Except what you report happening is NOT what any decent psychiatrist would do. For treatment resistant depression and dysthymia there are more than medication options: there is transcranial magnetic stimulation, ECT, even deep brain stimulators (just to name a few). There ARE more aggressive options for treatment out there than just meds, meds, and more meds.
@@JamesDecker7 it wasn't just psychiatrist that couldn't help me it was the the NHS. The system didn't offer the alternatives that you state. And I certainly wasn't wealthy enough to go private.
I wouldn't judge medical science too harshly because imho they've done wonders when you think about what kinds of medicine or medical procedures were available just 100 years ago. But I understand your frustration. Progress in psychiatry and psychology though are a far shot from the rest of medical science. Therapies often last forever, finding the right therapist for you seems to be a gamble and drugs have life-changing side-effects. Maybe there is a money allocation problem, meaning too little money is spent on this.
@@TheSandkastenverbot I think it’s more than a money problem, its a complexity problem. Going to APA meeting this year and seeing the huge resources necessary to map TINY portions of an animal brain or neuronal synapses at muscles + the fact physiologically these systems are developmentally unique due to pruning/growth…our minds are both very similar in the broadest senses but infinitely unique in our peculiarities. And that’s not even getting into our neurology being affected by so many other systems from the rest of our body (hormones, circulation, immune system, etc, etc, etc).
Conspirituality!!! HAHAHA! BRILLIANT! I was foolish enough to eat that sh***t driving to various well intentioned gatherings in Santa Monica...I am grateful I came to my senses about 2013 the bubble burst
I tried SSRIs for four years. Ended up getting off of them after they stopped working, also the side effects! I picked up meditating via Buddhist methods like Samatha meditation and Vissapana meditation. The whole point to me is that it is an exercise to learn to "unbind" from thoughts. A better way to say it is that it helps make thoughts less sticky from the meditative practice of not binding to maladaptive and dysfunctional thoughts. Just give awareness to the beneficial thoughts and condition yourself to generate more. Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. Just because cults and scams claim to offer meditation, doesn't mean meditation is a scam itself.
I ❤ your content ! Just to make myself clear. It’s rare to find someone trying the to be self-aware and making the work to put out there! Very grateful 🙏🏼
Enjoyed the conversation. A not entirely irrelevant correction: Manichaeism, early Christian era, Augustine into it for a while, Zoroastrian roots, these closer to 600 BC - as Scott says, "History is vitally important to understanding where we are."
(David Sholto incoming?! Yes, please!! ) Guys, this was terrific. I listened to it in it's entirety, twice. I was a little distracted the 1st time (totally missed the David Sholto mention), and was definitely worth the second run-through.
I totally agree , Ive never heard of this guy before but he talks a lot of sense . Scott , thanks for having him on as a guest man . Im off to check his stuff now !
A fact checker that a journalist employs for himself does a valuable service to him. The fact checkers that are payed by billionaires or the pharmaceutical industry work for them, not for us or for journalists. That is very different.
Could you do an episode on Psychotherapy cults? I've been part of one and I'm looking for more resources to recognize the patterns and help me deconstruct.
@@sgcarneyWell, the ones i've been exposed to in Florida are basically just authorities, including those at the Department of Health, fbi, judges, cops, doctors, nurses, med techs, counselors, church leaders, admins, even the ceo of youtube has designed his website so that you can block me if i dare say certain words to truly describe what goes on, what it is that authorities are doing with people that reach out for help in ptsd, literally militarized against the disabled, trafficking people under the guise of providing legal and medical care, i would cry out in ptsd, reaching out for help, just to find myself basically being raped and tortured by those in the medical and legal fields, in fact, they have raided my home countless times, to the point where any knock on the door gives me panic attacks, to say the least. I can't help but feel as if our society is basically being ran by human and drug traffickers and people think me crazy for feeling this way.
@@sgcarneyI had just replied providing details about what I've been thru in this regard, but you have automated the comment threads of your videos to keep us censored, and thus, silenced and isolated, unable to use the words we need to use to have the conversation we need to be having, my reply was literally shadowbanned for about 10 minutes before it was completely deleted because of the way you and youtube have set up your account to keep people like me silenced and isolated. I've spent years submitting feedback to youtube about the matter, but authorities seem to be more interested in working for those of you that are submitting to condone the use of energy for such things as keeping people like me silenced and isolated, unable to use the words we need to be using to have the conversation we need to be having. Not sure what is wrong with all you acting as if you're there to help, to want to do such a thing to people, it makes me sick deep inside.
I find this interesting. I have been following bits and pieces of all the spirituality stuff out there and have been having similar thoughts and questions about it. Thanks for giving your perspective.
It takes an expert to know an expert. The days of blind trust in media are gone. What fills the gap? Who funds science? Who communicates scientific findings? There are gatekeepers everywhere. Experience is more powerful than anything. Trust is earnt. I'm an economist, trained, but that means little. My passions and experience are where my true knowledge lies, not in theories.
That's the problem: "it takes an expert to know an expert", but a lot of people seem to fancy themselves able to skip that part and think they can know anyways. What has to fill the gap, I think, is that people need to actually spend more time learning how scientific _thinking_ works and also to understand maybe which experts _are_ trustworthy - for example, how much thought have you put into the difference or non-difference between _media_ and your typical University rank-and-file researcher or professor? And what were your conclusions? And if a source you independently determine to be trustworthy says the same thing as one you determine not to be trustworthy, perhaps maybe what you should do then is to accept the truth of that conclusion of and by itself, and consider human matters like trust of _people_ secondary. Truth, ultimately, does not change just because of who is saying it. Keep in mind Hitler, say, likely would have said 2+2=4. That does not make it false, nor does its truth make Hitler a good guy. One does not need to be able to understand every study, either. For example the reason I don't count out things like vaccines, say, is I see overwhelmingly that argument after argument given otherwise seems to miss out on some or another basics that I actually understand well. Like people say "well I know someone who got a vaccine and died", and it aggravates me because it's like I KNOW you cannot use that against a _statistical_ claim, and I also know that the claims about vaccines _are_ statistical claims, and it feels like those who say that don't (as why wouldn't they then realize it's an improper argument?) and that because it comes up _over and over_ it makes me feel like I'm against a gigantic wall of ignorance, and thus despair, hopeless. Or worse, it makes everyone feel like they're still all parroting _some_ form of media, instead of actually learning about the nuts and bolts of science and the actual studies and evidence and what they mean. I hear concerns about money and the like but I cannot single-handedly dismantle all crooked institutions either. And we cannot seem like we can have a solid base to really hold them to account until we can have a wide-ranging agreement on actual truth grounded in sound, knowledgeable thinking.
Lol, as pertains TO Huberman and fact checking, it feels pretty clear to me that if not a psychopath, he's absolutely a financial sociopath, that's why he wants more and more and more subscribers!
Conspiracy theorists sound less nuts every day, and indeed they seem to be proved correct (at least partially, in that they were closer to the truth than the official narrative) more often than not.
No, it's you who's adopting more conspiratorial thinking so they seem less nuts to you. The problem with conspiracy theories is not that they're all lies. If they were, no one would believe in them, most people are not this nuts. The problem is that they use elements of truth, and attach to them a simplistic and often false narrative. They offer simple explanations to very complex issues. They pretend to be logical, but they're only logical to those who really know very little about the subject and have no way of doing a real fact check. For example. There's a theory that the whole medical system has been bought by evil people who want to exterminate the human kind. It's true that big pharma has been buying doctors and scientists, and even media outlets. It's one of the problems of late capitalism. That doesn't mean that all doctors have been bought, and that doesn't mean that you should trust the one who has lost his licence for malpractice, but now he claims it was because the whole medical profession is corrupt and he's been wronged. When you believe in conspiracy theories you're just like those who blindly believe in what they're told by the mainstream media. You're easily led, you just switched the medium. And the conspiracy side is even darker and more misleading with less accountability. Thinking for yourself is a lonely place and requires an ongoing effort.
A lot of them try to be validating/justifying bigotry though. I.e. they will talk about "government corruption" but then want to push that a "clean" government would take hard authoritarian coercive action against objectively very much struggling people. We cannot be combatting oppression by intending oppression.
Vegan here, the fact that he supports animal cruelty means i won’t be going to his TH-cam channel. Not into cruelty in any form and that is something i wont compromise in. Heaps of other content makers out there with good content that is ethical and evidenced based.
29:00 I was put on the Fyntinyl patch by my primary care physician in 2011 to manage pain. Within 4 months of treatment, the physician pulled me off cold turkey. I went through a bad opiate withdrawal. The last time I visited his office, he recommended that I take his wife's "mindfulness" class to manage my persistent pain. 2020 and the lockstep pandemic was the last straw . Corporate crony capitalism at its finest. 4 years later shows like this are gaining traction as an antithesis to the disillusioned.
That’s not true about enemas…” if you don’t need them you don’t need them?” People use to do enemas all the time… there was less colorectal cancers…. Enemas work when done right
I've been binging your podcast. I will have to go back latter and give a 👍 To be honest, I don't think you should deprive your podcast from sponsorship, just be honest, sponsor something you really like and believe, if it turns out to be something that eventually you change your mind, just let us know. People need to stop idolizing other humans. I've seen some of your guests that I was gasping with their comments but it doesn't mean I will dislike you, and also doesn't mean that for continuing to "following" you I will have to be 100% on board with everything you say or what your guests say. Of course I give pauses and think about if it intrigues me, I will never stop myself from thinking and trying to understand the other side.
@@thenursesandhypochondriacs20 true. With every professional you have to have critical mind and a gut feeling. Even if it’s a guru or famous neuroscientist.
I think wellness should be incorporated into our modern healthcare system with doctors educated in this system . Requirements and standards need to be drawn and health insurers acceptance would be key which should not be a problem because it will save money . There has to also build into a financial savings to incentivize the medical division . You have labs done and if your are able to keep levels in acceptable ranges under wellness standards your healthcare costs are greatly reduced . If you can't do it or don't want to live a healthy doctor you can move up or down depending how you look at it and go to the primary care pill pusher but it will cost you more . You can't keep having the healthy population for the unhealthy . It doesn't promote health concienouse. Many of these health gurus do have a piece of the pie but they are so disorganized and a bit all over the place . Most are better than the standard quo of the poor health concienouse that a majority of Americans have . The health care system has to be changed to promote wellness instead of just treating symptoms of poor wellness .
Linda Burfield Hazzard used enemas as part of her regimens back in the day. At least one person died on her watch. It happened here in the PNW. Gregg Olson wrote about it in the book Starvation Heights. A lot of these ideas go way back, but new practitioners put their spin on them, and act as if it's new.
How about ozons therapy where a naturopaths blows air up your bum to bvb help intestines and stomach problems? A former co worker who is exactly into conspirituality has done this...
0:14 Just for the sake of precision and completeness: there are branches considered spiritual that are about constant disillusionment, like e.g. zen. Admittedly, they constitute, I suppose, about one percent. And in the view of these, you are doing a good job! And please keep it. :) (What we consider real is subject to another philosophical debate. Like e.g. does the red color really exist? ;) )
Is it though? Depends on how you decide upon which experts you trust? Simple questions help: on what topics do they publish? How do they respond to indepth critique? Are the datasets they used actual or cherry picked? How do you know as a non expert? What do other experts say? Does other research show conflicting results? How do these experts decide it is any good or not? And so on. Through trying to answer these questions, you will find honest and trustworthy experts, that also have their own faults.
not necessarily. if we’re critical of institutions, making them strong and meritocratic, you absolutely can trust experts in general. just have a critical eye.
It's actually something I feel - as someone who is not all-knowledgeable either, I know I have fallen into it at times - is more a well-intended but ill-effect propagated throwaway that people tend to resort to because they've seen enough to realize that a particular case is right or wrong but have not necessarily internalized/memorized and/or thought long enough about how to put together a more comprehensive and cogent, logical argument as to _why_ it is so. (For example, someone may have been exposed to enough science to have a sense that vaccine scientists "probably know what they're talking about", yet not know enough _details_ of vaccine science to be able to actually put together a cogent argument against a half-informed anti-vaxxer.)
A quick point: neither traditional Judaism nor Christianity have anything fundamentally in common with spiritualism. They're based on a creationist theology that fully accepts the reality and desirability of creation. Also, it's completely wrong to liken Christianity to Manichean dualism. Christianity is anti-Manichean. PS I agree with the criticism of Wilbur's direction.
[46:39] Fact checking Is a good thing, when it's checking with facts. He's come to that conclusion based on the experience and observations of journalists, left, right, center or independent, usee emotionally charged, cherry picked, ideologically slanted opinions or outright misinformation as fact check facts. Left wing is not intrinsically good and right wing is not intrinsically bad, the real world is not that extreme of a binary. I like the analogy of Spectrum Absorption Lines is a sufficient symbolic representation of human diversity.
I always say it is crazy to believe in every conspiracy theory you hear, but it is extremely naive not to believe in any of them. The way to navigate these troubling times is to truly understand the nature of the Self. Spirituality should be an inward journey to the depths of your being where all distinctions disappear. Where your true identity resides as the "I Am" presence, the essence that permeates all things. True Gurus will show the seeker the path, emphasizing that they must have the courage to walk it alone. One must step into the Great Unkown where silence is the language of Truth and all separation dissolves. Fake gurus will tell you they can take you there for a price. Once you understand energy an vibrations, everything makes sense.
I think it would be better to do away with blanket, presumptive imperatives like "believe all" or "believe some" or "believe none" in regard to how to approach conspiracy theories because they essentially are prescribing what reality should be in advance, when reality _could_ be that all, some, _or_ none of the conspiracy theories are true. The better way to approach it is that you should be good at evaluating evidence and know what you are actually talking about when analyzing a situation. For example, so many seem to think vaccines must be a "cure all" so that if someone still got sick despite receiving one, that somehow implies that there is something wrong with the science, when that is actually just a lack of understanding the basics: any competent scientist _with the right specialized knowledge_ (a key point since Huberman comes up here, much critique of him centers on how he tries to claim credibility using his neuroscience credential on non-neuroscience fields) will tell you that absolutely can and does happen with many vaccines, esp. for fast-mutating viruses like the flu (and now our COVID), and that it is inconsistent with precisely nothing. It's not that you are criticizing vaccines that is "inherently bad", it is "bad" that you (generic) are saying things that are intuitively plausible to many listeners but which even a "first course" level of rigorous and in-depth study as well as with in scientific/logical fallacies or other critical/analytic thinking-specific courses would tell you is completely rubbish in terms of reasoning. The "conspiracy theory" nature has nothing to do it with it; the "rubbish" is in the nature of the logic and knowledge base one comes off of in making such a claim. It's just that very often a lot of "conspiracy theories" are hatched on the basis of such poor logics. Finally, an irony is that one conspiracy theory that _does_ seem to have some of the best legs evidentially - that Trump is likely in cahoots with Vlad Putin in some way - is also bitterly divisive!!! (And it's not like that is the _only_ foreign connection he has anyway!)
Why do you have your books in the back if they promote dangerous ideas/people that are not true anymore ? "Scientism" seems to me like a position just like "conspirituality" but on the opposite side. Who are we to think our side is better ? You were wrong about Hof and Huberman. Why do you think your new position will be better ? There's something that doesn't feel right to me about spending more time saying others are morons or assuming the reasons why the do what they do when you don't know shit instead of building stuff and promoting "good ideas"
It's the basis of higher education critical thought. Deconstruct - tear down-explain, but provide nothing other than the explanation of why others are wrong. Note - haven't watched the video yet, just riffin on this comment
Everyone has the right to choose what they want to believe in and to follow and noone should judge them. When i had panic attacks there was no medical cure so i tried to meditate. 6 months and i am anxiety free, no panic attacks, no outbursts of anger, healing happened for me on physical level as well. No medicine was involved at all. I learnt to manifest too and it works like magic. By the way i am Catholic and one has nothing to do with me taking care of myself on spiritual level. Im guiding my kids and they are thriving at school and not experiencing anxieties like some others do. I love my life with all ups and downs. We are living in duality world indeed.
I was a conservative, “right” numbnut who became super left after a combination of Trump, Brexit, and Christian nationalism. Marx was right about 90 percent of what we humans do to each other. I am now a Theravada Buddhist on the verge of taking vows (that is, and atheist who enjoys incense).

Unfortunately the liberals and conservatives have let primarily the working classes fall into more and more poverty and despair. Desperate people cling onto false hope. Now the desperation is spreading to the middle classes too. Shame on both liberals and conservatives. Where is truth? You should go back to Maslows hierarchy of needs and note that government, corporations, banks and religious organisations are failing to keep people from falling off the bottom rung.
This is not wrong, for sure. Yet, this intro is not only presumptuous but also holding clear biases. The Religious path (or spiritual path) is not bound by materialism. Spiritual materialism is the true problem with “conspirituality” as they take a materialist path while thinking they’re on a spiritual path. The fantasy reality we have today is a “TV Reality” that evolved from Reality TV from the 90s. 😂 coffee enemas…I haven’t heard of that one in a LOOOONG time!

Why are you dissing Huberman for choosing not to talk about certain subjects? In my book knowing when to stay silent on particular issues is a sign of intelligence. You may see it as politically expedient but can you honestly say you arnt? I doubt it.
Being vegan or vegetarian is not necessarily healthy, and neither is engaging in poorly researched activities. Just because someone says something does not make it accurate. Modern medicine is questionable also. My thoughts and feelings are to trust in yourself, listen to your body and how you feel and believe in yourself.

They are the new religion, they are the new hope-sellers and so many ppl are so desperate that they'll loose all logic.
To be far everything is somewhere in between and you can't be healthy without getting a proper diet but this may not solve all your issues. Many of these" vegan' influencer's are actually plant based and are only involved for health where as actual veganism is a movement for the rights of animals not to be used by people. A lot of people have many factors creating health problems and do have to try many different things and a combination of things.
That's why I hate that "victim mindset" term all the time. The truth is, as an outsider, you (generic) _do not get to have any say_ as to whether someone _else's_ "victim "mindset"" is indeed just a mindset or is something more. It ain't your lane, shut up and listen instead and if you still don't agree then leave that particular individual human alone and worry about yourself instead.
I noticed the same thing too, regarding Russell Brand. He’s noticeably made a rightward shift. I don’t have a problem with a slant to the right but he seems to be creeping more and more each day. He very recently proclaimed himself Christian (didn’t he previously lean toward Vedic philosophy?) and now has an ad for Gold on his TH-cam channel, as does Tucker Carlson. Russell and Tucker Carlson are now bff’s. It’s like these guys got together and introduced each other to potential advertisers. I don’t need to watch both of their channels bc they’re both saying the same thing and pretty much interviewing the same people. I fear they become their own echo chambers against the very things and people they call out for having confirmation bias. I think this is happening with so many of these guys (podcasters).
@@fawn3369 this is sad.
None of the things you mentioned are actually aligned with traditional left or right politics. Perhaps the one thing that possibly could be considered as such would be an adoption of Christianity, but that doesn't really make sense as it doesn't directly hold any form of political leaning. There are so many forms of Christianity, it's more of an adjacent implication. This is actually part of the problem with today's cultural bubbles. I would ask specifically which values of Russell's are now traditional right wing values? I can't really think of any.
There's a social pressure to adhere to prescribed doctrines these days, if you veer from any facet of these narratives you seem to get stuck with a new label implying you're somehow on the wrong team.
The fact that tucker is now pointing out the inherent corruption on both sides of the political spectrum and admitting he had many things very wrong is a positive development in my opinion, he has a huge platform.
Russell has always been very open about his intention with his podcast, he wanted to find common ground between political ideologies that have traditionally been at odds and I think he's done very well in this respect.
In regards to advertising, there is a limited number of advertisers willing to connect themselves with such anti establishment content, these content creators are often rendered financially radioactive by the legacy/media.
If you spread your lens a little wider you'll notice just how many fervently left wing creators are sharing conversations with members of right leaning platforms. The common theme is elite corporate interests aligned with government are working against the people. That's pretty far left traditionally.
The establishment has actively maneuvered left wing topics to the arena of identity politics, this serves to polarize the public and shift focus from the fact the establishment has no interest in serving the people and only an interest in serving their financial masters. The public blames the other side of the socio-political spectrum for the wrongs of the world while the ones who make the laws get rich and powerful serving their masters. Ultimately the cost of living keeps increasing, people are struggling more, health in all arenas declines and people are generally less tolerant of each others views.
Politics isn't real

@@johndoe-is2fw You gotta hand it to em. It's been executed rather masterfully here in New Zealand.
Key ingredient is fear, bombard people with fear, once you've got them in that state you can direct their attention to your 'scapegoat' of choice.
For leftists it's Trump/Maga supporters, Russia and any other leftists that find fault with any aspect of the prescribed narrative. They falsely label these non-conforming leftists 'alt right' and attack them on claims of "adjacent to..". They do this because they cannot address the points made by these non-conformers head on. They have no argument for these because they are valid and true observations that highlight the subterfuge at play. This is also why censorship is now a must for these people, it's their last line of defense in the face of completely broken logic.
These systems of control are as old as civilisation but the technology they're now being applied with is like nothing before.
The medical profession is equally guilty of costing us a lot of money and coming up with no results. I spent years being treated by mainstream medicine for depression, they tried me on every anti depressant drug on the market and even moved on to some others that weren't antidepressant drugs. So after years of this they finally decided I didn't have Clinical depression but Dysthymia instead. So now I was told to go away because I'm "drug resistant". Let's not forget the medical practices are partly funded by big pharma. Your doctor has an incentive to push their products.
Except what you report happening is NOT what any decent psychiatrist would do. For treatment resistant depression and dysthymia there are more than medication options: there is transcranial magnetic stimulation, ECT, even deep brain stimulators (just to name a few). There ARE more aggressive options for treatment out there than just meds, meds, and more meds.
@@JamesDecker7 it wasn't just psychiatrist that couldn't help me it was the the NHS. The system didn't offer the alternatives that you state. And I certainly wasn't wealthy enough to go private.
I wouldn't judge medical science too harshly because imho they've done wonders when you think about what kinds of medicine or medical procedures were available just 100 years ago. But I understand your frustration. Progress in psychiatry and psychology though are a far shot from the rest of medical science. Therapies often last forever, finding the right therapist for you seems to be a gamble and drugs have life-changing side-effects. Maybe there is a money allocation problem, meaning too little money is spent on this.

I tried SSRIs for four years. Ended up getting off of them after they stopped working, also the side effects!
I picked up meditating via Buddhist methods like Samatha meditation and Vissapana meditation.
The whole point to me is that it is an exercise to learn to "unbind" from thoughts. A better way to say it is that it helps make thoughts less sticky from the meditative practice of not binding to maladaptive and dysfunctional thoughts.
Just give awareness to the beneficial thoughts and condition yourself to generate more.
Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. Just because cults and scams claim to offer meditation, doesn't mean meditation is a scam itself.

Ive just shared this content with a pal simply because ....and I am repeating myself , this is such a great conversation !
'It is impossible to begin to learn that which one thinks one already knows." - Epictetus
It takes an expert to know an expert. The days of blind trust in media are gone. What fills the gap? Who funds science? Who communicates scientific findings? There are gatekeepers everywhere. Experience is more powerful than anything. Trust is earnt. I'm an economist, trained, but that means little. My passions and experience are where my true knowledge lies, not in theories.
That's the problem: "it takes an expert to know an expert", but a lot of people seem to fancy themselves able to skip that part and think they can know anyways. What has to fill the gap, I think, is that people need to actually spend more time learning how scientific _thinking_ works and also to understand maybe which experts _are_ trustworthy - for example, how much thought have you put into the difference or non-difference between _media_ and your typical University rank-and-file researcher or professor? And what were your conclusions? And if a source you independently determine to be trustworthy says the same thing as one you determine not to be trustworthy, perhaps maybe what you should do then is to accept the truth of that conclusion of and by itself, and consider human matters like trust of _people_ secondary. Truth, ultimately, does not change just because of who is saying it. Keep in mind Hitler, say, likely would have said 2+2=4. That does not make it false, nor does its truth make Hitler a good guy.
One does not need to be able to understand every study, either. For example the reason I don't count out things like vaccines, say, is I see overwhelmingly that argument after argument given otherwise seems to miss out on some or another basics that I actually understand well. Like people say "well I know someone who got a vaccine and died", and it aggravates me because it's like I KNOW you cannot use that against a _statistical_ claim, and I also know that the claims about vaccines _are_ statistical claims, and it feels like those who say that don't (as why wouldn't they then realize it's an improper argument?) and that because it comes up _over and over_ it makes me feel like I'm against a gigantic wall of ignorance, and thus despair, hopeless. Or worse, it makes everyone feel like they're still all parroting _some_ form of media, instead of actually learning about the nuts and bolts of science and the actual studies and evidence and what they mean. I hear concerns about money and the like but I cannot single-handedly dismantle all crooked institutions either. And we cannot seem like we can have a solid base to really hold them to account until we can have a wide-ranging agreement on actual truth grounded in sound, knowledgeable thinking.
Scott Carney Thanks for posting this video.
My pleasure!
Lol, as pertains TO Huberman and fact checking, it feels pretty clear to me that if not a psychopath, he's absolutely a financial sociopath, that's why he wants more and more and more subscribers!
Conspiracy theorists sound less nuts every day, and indeed they seem to be proved correct (at least partially, in that they were closer to the truth than the official narrative) more often than not.
No, it's you who's adopting more conspiratorial thinking so they seem less nuts to you. The problem with conspiracy theories is not that they're all lies. If they were, no one would believe in them, most people are not this nuts. The problem is that they use elements of truth, and attach to them a simplistic and often false narrative. They offer simple explanations to very complex issues. They pretend to be logical, but they're only logical to those who really know very little about the subject and have no way of doing a real fact check.
For example. There's a theory that the whole medical system has been bought by evil people who want to exterminate the human kind.
It's true that big pharma has been buying doctors and scientists, and even media outlets. It's one of the problems of late capitalism. That doesn't mean that all doctors have been bought, and that doesn't mean that you should trust the one who has lost his licence for malpractice, but now he claims it was because the whole medical profession is corrupt and he's been wronged.
When you believe in conspiracy theories you're just like those who blindly believe in what they're told by the mainstream media. You're easily led, you just switched the medium. And the conspiracy side is even darker and more misleading with less accountability.
Thinking for yourself is a lonely place and requires an ongoing effort.
A lot of them try to be validating/justifying bigotry though. I.e. they will talk about "government corruption" but then want to push that a "clean" government would take hard authoritarian coercive action against objectively very much struggling people. We cannot be combatting oppression by intending oppression.
You talked about AG1 and it's exorbitant cost. I'm curious if you have any thoughts/input on Nutrafol?

29:00 I was put on the Fyntinyl patch by my primary care physician in 2011 to manage pain. Within 4 months of treatment, the physician pulled me off cold turkey. I went through a bad opiate withdrawal. The last time I visited his office, he recommended that I take his wife's "mindfulness" class to manage my persistent pain. 2020 and the lockstep pandemic was the last straw . Corporate crony capitalism at its finest. 4 years later shows like this are gaining traction as an antithesis to the disillusioned.

To be honest, I don't think you should deprive your podcast from sponsorship, just be honest, sponsor something you really like and believe, if it turns out to be something that eventually you change your mind, just let us know. People need to stop idolizing other humans. I've seen some of your guests that I was gasping with their comments but it doesn't mean I will dislike you, and also doesn't mean that for continuing to "following" you I will have to be 100% on board with everything you say or what your guests say. Of course I give pauses and think about if it intrigues me, I will never stop myself from thinking and trying to understand the other side.

Yes, it's not Rocket Surgery, sheeple.
I think wellness should be incorporated into our modern healthcare system with doctors educated in this system . Requirements and standards need to be drawn and health insurers acceptance would be key which should not be a problem because it will save money . There has to also build into a financial savings to incentivize the medical division . You have labs done and if your are able to keep levels in acceptable ranges under wellness standards your healthcare costs are greatly reduced . If you can't do it or don't want to live a healthy doctor you can move up or down depending how you look at it and go to the primary care pill pusher but it will cost you more . You can't keep having the healthy population for the unhealthy . It doesn't promote health concienouse.
Many of these health gurus do have a piece of the pie but they are so disorganized and a bit all over the place . Most are better than the standard quo of the poor health concienouse that a majority of Americans have . The health care system has to be changed to promote wellness instead of just treating symptoms of poor wellness .

Linda Burfield Hazzard used enemas as part of her regimens back in the day. At least one person died on her watch. It happened here in the PNW.

Spirit exists❤
0:14 Just for the sake of precision and completeness: there are branches considered spiritual that are about constant disillusionment, like e.g. zen. Admittedly, they constitute, I suppose, about one percent. And in the view of these, you are doing a good job! And please keep it. :)
(What we consider real is subject to another philosophical debate. Like e.g. does the red color really exist? ;) )
Trust the experts, that's a conspiracy too!
Is it though? Depends on how you decide upon which experts you trust? Simple questions help: on what topics do they publish? How do they respond to indepth critique? Are the datasets they used actual or cherry picked? How do you know as a non expert?
What do other experts say? Does other research show conflicting results? How do these experts decide it is any good or not? And so on.
Through trying to answer these questions, you will find honest and trustworthy experts, that also have their own faults.
not necessarily. if we’re critical of institutions, making them strong and meritocratic, you absolutely can trust experts in general. just have a critical eye.
It's actually something I feel - as someone who is not all-knowledgeable either, I know I have fallen into it at times - is more a well-intended but ill-effect propagated throwaway that people tend to resort to because they've seen enough to realize that a particular case is right or wrong but have not necessarily internalized/memorized and/or thought long enough about how to put together a more comprehensive and cogent, logical argument as to _why_ it is so. (For example, someone may have been exposed to enough science to have a sense that vaccine scientists "probably know what they're talking about", yet not know enough _details_ of vaccine science to be able to actually put together a cogent argument against a half-informed anti-vaxxer.)
A quick point: neither traditional Judaism nor Christianity have anything fundamentally in common with spiritualism. They're based on a creationist theology that fully accepts the reality and desirability of creation. Also, it's completely wrong to liken Christianity to Manichean dualism. Christianity is anti-Manichean. PS I agree with the criticism of Wilbur's direction.

Fact checking Is a good thing, when it's checking with facts. He's come to that conclusion based on the experience and observations of journalists, left, right, center or independent, usee emotionally charged, cherry picked, ideologically slanted opinions or outright misinformation as fact check facts. Left wing is not intrinsically good and right wing is not intrinsically bad, the real world is not that extreme of a binary. I like the analogy of Spectrum Absorption Lines is a sufficient symbolic representation of human diversity.

I always say it is crazy to believe in every conspiracy theory you hear, but it is extremely naive not to believe in any of them. The way to navigate these troubling times is to truly understand the nature of the Self.
Spirituality should be an inward journey to the depths of your being where all distinctions disappear. Where your true identity resides as the "I Am" presence, the essence that permeates all things.
True Gurus will show the seeker the path, emphasizing that they must have the courage to walk it alone. One must step into the Great Unkown where silence is the language of Truth and all separation dissolves.
Fake gurus will tell you they can take you there for a price.
Once you understand energy an vibrations, everything makes sense.
I think it would be better to do away with blanket, presumptive imperatives like "believe all" or "believe some" or "believe none" in regard to how to approach conspiracy theories because they essentially are prescribing what reality should be in advance, when reality _could_ be that all, some, _or_ none of the conspiracy theories are true. The better way to approach it is that you should be good at evaluating evidence and know what you are actually talking about when analyzing a situation. For example, so many seem to think vaccines must be a "cure all" so that if someone still got sick despite receiving one, that somehow implies that there is something wrong with the science, when that is actually just a lack of understanding the basics: any competent scientist _with the right specialized knowledge_ (a key point since Huberman comes up here, much critique of him centers on how he tries to claim credibility using his neuroscience credential on non-neuroscience fields) will tell you that absolutely can and does happen with many vaccines, esp. for fast-mutating viruses like the flu (and now our COVID), and that it is inconsistent with precisely nothing. It's not that you are criticizing vaccines that is "inherently bad", it is "bad" that you (generic) are saying things that are intuitively plausible to many listeners but which even a "first course" level of rigorous and in-depth study as well as with in scientific/logical fallacies or other critical/analytic thinking-specific courses would tell you is completely rubbish in terms of reasoning. The "conspiracy theory" nature has nothing to do it with it; the "rubbish" is in the nature of the logic and knowledge base one comes off of in making such a claim. It's just that very often a lot of "conspiracy theories" are hatched on the basis of such poor logics.
Finally, an irony is that one conspiracy theory that _does_ seem to have some of the best legs evidentially - that Trump is likely in cahoots with Vlad Putin in some way - is also bitterly divisive!!! (And it's not like that is the _only_ foreign connection he has anyway!)

strange, but ok.
Hi Steve!!!
Derek says that having a sense of well being, a high that comes close to a spiritual feeling after an enama has no medical use!? Come on Derek do you no nothing of the mind body connection? Having a sense of well being and spiritual connection has been scientifically proven to be physically beneficial.
Michael Greger is good doc to watch for
Didn't he write the book "How to Die" really really fast. And his other book how to look 70 in your 40s by poisoning yourself with starch and plant toxins while getting no nutrition from vegetables with near 0 bioavailable nutrients.
Unfortunately the liberals and conservatives have let primarily the working classes fall into more and more poverty and despair. Desperate people cling onto false hope. Now the desperation is spreading to the middle classes too. Shame on both liberals and conservatives. Where is truth? You should go back to Maslows hierarchy of needs and note that government, corporations, banks and religious organisations are failing to keep people from falling off the bottom rung.
This is not wrong, for sure. Yet, this intro is not only presumptuous but also holding clear biases.
The Religious path (or spiritual path) is not bound by materialism. Spiritual materialism is the true problem with “conspirituality” as they take a materialist path while thinking they’re on a spiritual path.
The fantasy reality we have today is a “TV Reality” that evolved from Reality TV from the 90s.
😂 coffee enemas…I haven’t heard of that one in a LOOOONG time!
Me too
I wish you guys would get to the freakin point here. And fyi, to tech literate people, hearing you refer to "The Algorithm" as a single, mysterious, ultimately unknowable and even godlike monolithic force is a huge turn off, and gives the impression that you too are susceptible to pseudo-logical ways of framing your world (yourselves, the Good Creators ,being oppressed and fighting against the goliath of The Algorithm). And btw the word is "Manicheanism" not "Machinism". Oh for god's sake, now you're "analyzing" Star Wars. Grow up.
The algo is always changing. If you want more specific language go to a tech channel.
@@sgcarney or how about just talk about things that are actually in your wheelhouse.
I write quite a bit about cult thinking.
📜 John 8:44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him.
When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
45Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me!
📜 Matthew 13:34 Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable.
35 So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet:
“I will open my mouth in parables,
I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.”
36Then he left the crowd and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”
37He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man.
38The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom.
The weeds are the people of the evil one, 39and the enemy who sows them is the devil.
📜 Jeremiah 8:17 For, behold, I will send serpents, cockatrices, among you, which will not be charmed, and they shall bite you, saith the LORD.
📜 Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world:
he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
📜 John 3:12If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
There is a lot of fake out there. You guys don’t sit well in my gut either. Or heart. Or brain. Yuck here. Listening to you both makes me nauseous
Why are you dissing Huberman for choosing not to talk about certain subjects? In my book knowing when to stay silent on particular issues is a sign of intelligence. You may see it as politically expedient but can you honestly say you arnt? I doubt it.
Star Wars under Disney is trash
Stiffke his money dopamine reaction? 😂😂😂 Your not a tad jealous are you Scott 🤔
Jealous? Of what?
Manichaeism, not Machenism, sorry.
Right. Thanks.
Being vegan or vegetarian is not necessarily healthy, and neither is engaging in poorly researched activities. Just because someone says something does not make it accurate. Modern medicine is questionable also. My thoughts and feelings are to trust in yourself, listen to your body and how you feel and believe in yourself.
Veganism is a stance against animals cruelty and you can be a whole foods vegan or a junk food vegan.
There is no such thing as Qanon. Fail
First day on the internet?
An atheist, no thank you, I disagree already!🎉
Conspirituality isn’t available in Canada? 🫠
Great chat. I used to be super into yoga and I noticed this as well like 18 years ago for me.
