  2. #184: Suspend Your Disbelief (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream)

    27 juli 2023 · 2 uur 7 min

    Afspelen
    In this 184th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. Lees meer

    In this episode we discuss RuPaul’s Drag Race, Barbie, and the deep state. How do drag and Barbie reveal similar confusions about sex and gender, feminism, and whether or not you’ve been red-pilled? Are drag queens women? Is Barbie? Then: an exploration of the meaning of the term “deep state,” its implications for recent American history, and its possible connection to capture, corruption, and foreign influence.

    Suspend your disbelief…or else.

    In this episode we discuss the predictable descent of the West into a tribal battle over resources, following from the corrupt rent-seeking elites’ destruction of the system of competence and merit which fueled the boom of the 20th century. More specifically, we discuss FreedomFest, libertarians and liberty, RFK Jr. and his free market solution to pollution; also: race, sex, genocide, and rape. And: a man cheats two ways to take home a medal in a race for disabled women. Finally: saber-toothed anchovies.

    In this 180th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens.

    We begin by discussing Bret’s 2021 conversation with RFK Jr., which DarkHorse released this week—why the delay, and what revelations are therein? Then we discuss adjuvants in killed virus vaccines, and whether the intentional awakening of the immune system with adjuvants may contribute to allergies. And we discuss affirmative action, in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision this week, which found in a 6 – 3 decision that using race as a factor in college admissions is unlawful. Reviewing some of the relevant legal history—the ratification of the 14th Amendment (1868), Plessy v Ferguson (1896), Brown v Board of Education (1954), University of California v Bakke (1978), and Grutter v Bollinger (2003)—we then discuss the opinions put forth by both the majority and dissent in this case.

    We begin this episode by discussing the hazards of mind-reading: Does disagreeing with a Day of Absence mean that you are racist? Does being hesitant about Covid vaccines mean that you don’t think Covid is a serious disease? Does not wanting trans-identified men in women’s shelters and prisons mean that you think that at all trans people are dangerous? Then we discuss shenanigans in Covid vaccine efficacy analysis, which would make even a placebo look like it was effective treatment. And we discuss RFK Jr and Rogan’s recent conversation, and responses to it. Is Ivermectin effective against Covid? Are childhood vaccines dangerous? How would we know? Do we have the information that we need in order to figure it out?

    Should men be competing in women’s sports? Do men who do so exhibit sophistry and cheating? What are the implications of Trump’s arraignment, and of the fact that MSNBC would not live broadcast his speech afterwards? What is going on with carnivorous plants? How are they like mangroves? Do they ever switch between being carnivorous and not? And what about that species in Borneo that collects the poop of tree shrews?

    In this 177th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens.

    Picking up from last week, how has the book, Where There Is No Doctor, been updated for the 2022 edition? From breast-feeding to medicines, obesity to sterility, the book has remained excellent in many ways, while adopting a few modern errors. And in 1992, it recommended 5 vaccine shots for young children; now it recommends 15 - 17—why the change? Then: how can we bootstrap rules for how to think about in an increasingly confused era? We discuss important concepts that are easily abused—like “controlled opposition” and “the right side of history”—and the meaning of the Trump indictment and the Defender 23 NATO exercise in Europe.

    In this 176th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens.

    The decline of science at the FDA has become unmanageable—so argues BMJ, a leading medical journal, and they’ve got the receipts to back up the claim. Meanwhile, the FDA is advocating that we all work to stop the spread of misinformation, and that sunlight is the enemy. Also: the cost of silence. When editors at prominent publications hide the fact of their vaccine injuries, we all suffer. And a look back at the important book, Where There Is No Doctor—and its advice on vaccines, medications, and more.

    In the last three years we have witnessed mass violations of the Hippocratic Oath, and of the Nuremberg Code. Which of the 10 principles of the Code have been breached during Covid—or indeed, have any notbeen? Why is the WHO simultaneously crowing about pushing Covid vaccines on Africans, and launching a fear campaign against salt? When did the propaganda and marketing arm take over our public health agencies? Meanwhile, Scientific American is making a bid for worst public health take by arguing that exclusively breastfeeding your infant is neither nature’s way, nor important. And The Atlantic Monthly enters the fray by saying the quiet part out loud, admitting that the Covid vaccines were in fact one very large experiment on an uninformed populace, who could therefore not give consent.

    The Press Secretary said this week that “These are our kids. They belong to all of us.” Conservatives had a predictable meltdown. Is she right, or is she wrong? What are the “sides” in this debate? Are there more than two sexes? Can a human transition between sexes? Are we sliding back towards regressive gender norms, and embracing social contagion and mental illness? With regard to a Florida bill restricting gender transition interventions for minors, an ER doc said that it is his job to “take care” of people, regardless of their beliefs. True. But what does it mean to take care? The two sides in this debate fundamentally disagree about what constitutes care. Finally, Bret invites Eliezer Yudkowsky to debate AI, LLM’s and complex vs. complicated systems.

We also discuss AI “doomers,” and why that’s a misleading epithet. A new product that’ll keep your produce fresh with absolutely no downsides is now on fruit near you! And a hummingbird makes an error.

    First up this week, we discuss Spring and sea stars (also known as starfish, and asteroids). Then we discuss “new” research being discussed in the New York Times which finds that long telomeres shorten life, a prediction made by Bret over 20 years ago. We discuss hypothesis, theory, science and citation, and observe that “science” doesn’t seem to have learned anything from the giant scientific debacle that was the signature of the Covid era. Finally, we discuss modernity, fertility and feminism, and point out—not for the first time—that we cannot go back, but must go forward with caution and care.

    This week we discuss why businesses aren’t acting like businesses. Why did Fox fire Tucker Carlson? Why did Anheuser-Busch hire Dylan Mulvaney? Why did Twitter of old throw people off for engaging in WrongThink? Why does YouTube continue to strike people for talking to the wrong people—people like democratic candidate for president Robert F Kennedy, Jr? Part of the answer is in the ESG (Environment, Social and Governance) agenda. ESG is social credit for corporations, and it is being used by Goliath to facilitate a new kind of fascism.

    This week we discuss the sun and the Earth. Near Infrared Radiation (NIR) from the sun penetrates deep inside our bodies, where it stimulates our mitochondria to produce subcellular melatonin, a potent antioxidant. Spend time outside to reap the health benefits. And: It is Earth Day! Let us reject reductionism, specialization, and dependence, and remember our roots on the land, making and growing and producing things with our own hands: let us be producers, not merely consumers. Always, we can learn from Wendell Berry. Also: how could the Biden administration be making such a foolish mistake with mortgage rates, why did it take so long for MIT to drop their Covid vax mandates, and how awesome is that spike protein?

Sports bras are a useful item of clothing for women engaged in certain kinds of sports; they are not a fashion accessory, but are being used as such, and as a weapon in the culture wars. Then: Substack announced a new product that will be compete with Twitter, and Twitter responded with chaos; “friendly fire” between two of the few companies that seek to protect free speech is bad for everyone. Also: what are electric unicycles, and how fun and safe are they? Finally: discussion of Celia Farber’s book, Serious Adverse Events: An Uncensored History of AIDS, with some comparisons to what happened during Covid.

We also discuss science, a field—like journalism—that is supposed to be working in pursuit of truth. Then we return to the question of AI, and whether two pieces out this week that suggest a moratorium, or something stronger, are the right approach. Finally: Do male armadillos, like all the rest of mammals who have been studied, get erections during REM sleep?

    This week we discuss mis-, dis-, and mal- information, and terrorism, in light of testimony before Congress regarding the Twitter files and government interference in the exchange of information. We learn how the government would like us to quash narratives that it finds displeasing or inconvenient. We discuss the nature of respiratory disease and pandemics, and consider how much of the destruction that happened in the last three years might have been iatrogenic: caused by medical treatment (rather than by the virus). We consider what happened in 2018-2019, during the Spanish Flu, and the evidence that much of the damage then might have been iatrogenic—specifically from exceedingly high doses of aspirin. And we share the words of theologian Paul Tillich, who broadcast warnings and passion into Nazi Germany, his homeland, to reach the people and encourage resistance.

    This week, we discuss science, race, death and sex. No, really. Science: why it is critical—in science and in sense-making in general—to separate the observation of a thing, from the interpretation of what it means. Race: why acting to protect yourself from individual bad actors is different from avoiding whole demographic groups. Death: Daniel Ellsberg, who released the Pentagon Papers, revealed a terminal diagnosis this week. We discuss him, his legacy, and death more generally. Sex: How can different lifestyles—e.g., “neo-trad” vs polyamorous—co-exist in a functioning society? Or can they? Also, we begin with a brief conversation about the Inca.

  31. #163: Making Medicine Modern (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream)

    In this 163rd in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. Lees meer

    This week, we discuss individual vs. public health, and whether the failures of the last three years are due to an over-reliance on clinical reasoning. (Spoiler: they’re not.) Rather, the failures are due to a lack of evolutionary thinking, in combination with reductionism and a reliance on both metrics and credentials. Then: continuing last week’s discussion of how models are the product of science, how do we assess the claim that shedding caused a case of myocarditis? Finally: race relations are disintegrating in some circles, and that seems to be the obvious result of race-baiting by supposedly well-intentioned “liberals” wielding DEI initiatives. There is a widespread move to shame people for things that are immutable (e.g. race), celebrate bad things that are mutable (e.g. kinks), and pretend that immutable things can change (e.g. sex).

    This week, we discuss John Campbell’s discussion of an autopsy report, and his discussion of drug recommendations in 2020 Britain raises, which raises serious questions about medical intent. We discuss scientific models—the good kind—and how Campbell’s first video reveals the correctness of our model of mRNA vaccine injury. Then we discuss a research paper, Wanzhu et al 2023, which purports to find that people vaccinated against Covid are less likely to go to the ER, to be hospitalized, and to die, than are unvaccinated people who have a history of Covid. We discuss whether or not this is true. Finally, we discuss the role of stigma and shame in a functioning society.

    This week, we discuss Godot, dogs, and science. Do the New York Times and the Brookings Institution have insight into what’s true, what’s not, and how science is done? Could they define hypothesis, prediction, or test? We think not. New “research” out of Brookings claims that we are leading purveyors of misinformation, who “burnish [our] scientific bona fides” by using tricky terms like “correlation” and “causation.” Brookings having established that we are cranks for discussing scientific articles that are on pre-print servers (and so haven’t been peer-reviewed), we point to Nature’s discussion this week of…a scientific article on a pre-print server. Finally, we discuss how you might use a scientific approach to increase your odds of surviving in the Indonesian rainforest.

    This week, we discuss why sport has different categories for men and women, and actors and actresses are up for different awards, but sculptors, scientists, and screenwriters aren’t assessed by sex. What is the difference, and why does it matter? Should music awards be divvied up by sex? How about surfing competitions? Then we discuss how never to end up in another situation in which the authorities are spouting nonsense, they somehow convince far too many people that they are the voice of science; and dangerous, unscientific policies are made that will affect millions for a long time to come. Many people who consider themselves heterodox thinkers got it very wrong throughout Covid, but now claim that those of us who got it right did so through contrarianism or luck. Wrong, and wrong.

    This week, we discuss antibodies. Why is the public health messaging around immunity focused on antibodies, when there is so much more to immunity? Also, the Department of Defense has finally dropped vaccine mandates for the military, and the federal government has affirmed that we are in the middle of a Covid-19 “health emergency” for the 11th consecutive time. The American Academy of Pediatrics is now suggesting the remedy of drugs (at 12 years old) and surgery (at 13) for children suffering from the “disease of obesity.” We’re no longer supposed to use the word field, according to both USC and Michigan’s Dept of Health and Human Services. And male pufferfish make elaborate geometric designs in the sand, all for the love of female pufferfish.

We discuss new research published in The Lancet, which pretends to be about how women are faring with monkeypox, but is actually largely about men who are pretending to be women; we also review The Lancet’s final op-ed of 2022, which bemoans a “breakdown of trust in the state and in scientists.” Finally, we discuss how glass frogs become transparent: by sequestering blood in their livers.

We discuss Science magazine’s editorial that deifies Fauci, Nature magazine’s editorial claiming that science is hard and we’ll never know what happened during Covid, and the White House’s Summit on Equity and Excellence in STEMM, which threatens to create Harrison Bergeron University. Finally: do female snakes experience sexual pleasure? Tune in to find out all about hemiclitores.

Why should Kanye be heard, given that what he is saying is awful? We also discuss chemist Anna Krylov’s newest piece, who has seen first-hand what happens when ideas are censored and events disappeared. The National Science Foundation awards a large amount of money to an organization called Hacks/Hackers, who use that money to “discover” that Bret is a conservative who spreads vaccine misinformation. Meanwhile, Pfizer mocks people who try to figure things out for themselves, and receives a Reuters Pharma Award. That is not a typo.

  46. #151 How to Think, not What to Think (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream)

    27 november 2022 · 2 uur 8 min

    Afspelen
    In this 151st in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. Lees meer

    This week, we discuss the difference between people who crashed and burned in the last few years, and those who remain standing. What was your position on SARS-CoV2 origins, vaccines, early treatment, masks, when those topics first came to your consciousness? Have your positions moved? Has your model of the world become better over time, or has it remained static? Static models of the world are doomed to failure, even when held by those with some heterodox beliefs. Also: what does wordle have to do with any of this? And is Elon Musk really opening the gates of hell? Finally, how to eat pears.

  47. #150 The Time Traveling Money Printer (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream)

    20 november 2022 · 2 uur 21 min

    Afspelen
    In this 150th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. Lees meer

    This week, we discuss how myriad stories of failure and corruption might be linked together beneath the surface by systems of power that know more about where we are headed than we are being told. With the collapse of FTX this week, connections between woke ideology and covid ideology have been made clear. A coming centralized bank digital currency is implicated as well. We also discuss twitter, and whether it is “just” a social media platform, or if it has a chance of replacing legacy media in bringing us the news. Then: how should doctors respond to those who ask for Covid vaccine exemptions? And finally: do cats understand when humans are talking to them? Are cats savvy enough to ignore strange men who give orders? Are humans?

  49. #149 If Not Amnesty, What? (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream)

    13 november 2022 · 1 uur 35 min

    Afspelen
    In this 149th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. Lees meer

    This week, we discuss certainty. How certain are you of your positions—on the efficacy of masks, SARS-CoV2 origins, mRNA vaccines, Ukraine, elections, trans, CRT, the police? Has your certainty changed over time? We discuss whether people on a particular side of many fraught issues are more likely to have adopted a position, and a level of certainty, from authorities, and never had it change. We discuss apology, and what a real apology sounds like, and how it should be received. We also ask why so many cities, and those who live in cities, are celebrating mental illness and addiction, rather than working to actually help those afflicted. Being anxious and confused doesn’t mean that the rest of us should go along with your contorted worldview; in fact, it is our duty not to.
    NOTE: Tech issue with Livestream Q&A so it never happened. Questions will be answered next week.

    This week, we discuss elections and democracy. What happens if we start investigating the relationship between pharma/Pfizer and the public health apparatus? Are there any patriots left in politics? We also discuss twitter, Elon Musk, and the “pause” being taken by some former advertisers on twitter. Then: what precisely is going on with the bivalent vaccines against Covid—is it whiz-bang scientific cleverness, or whiz-bang scientific recklessness? Finally, what is the difference between black-face and woman-face?
