Lindsay & O'Fallon episode released
Added 2022-03-07 01:58:47 +0000 UTCHey guys,
Just a note to say we finally released a long overdue episode with Aaron Rabinowitz on the dynamic duo of James Lindsay & Michael O'Fallon.
It's a long episode but really I don't see us going back to either of these figures for a very long time.
Any thoughts or comments are welcome!
We are hoping to release another two episodes this week... probably the review with Julian or Josh and then either the Very Bad Wizards crossover or the Reverend Moon decoding episode with Elgen.

And JP Sears has fallen into the hole big time. I'm not a total Freud fan but I do like a bit of Jung and these people are just classic cases of repression and self-esteem issues oozing out into "normal" society. They all need therapy. Lots of it. :-D

2022-03-16 10:39:30 +0000 UTCI did it in pieces, and on 1.2 - 1.5 speed while on an elliptical trainer or a trampoline and with many a snort or sneer expressed out loud. I feel like I deserve a badge or something. My god, it was revolting (Lindsey/O' Fallon were). Sadly I know people in the U.S. especially who would get all stoked up hearing all of the "this is what they are doing to your children" crap. SMH

2022-03-11 16:49:03 +0000 UTCGood point! Isn’t this what the very bad gurus* do? Those buying into this are indoctrinated just like a cult? Or is the cross-index categorization overly broad? All questions, no answers.

2022-03-11 13:22:50 +0000 UTCMy question is: does the category "conspiracy mongering" cover this or should there at least be an asterisk on some to indicate "particularly dangerous/heinous theorizing"?

2022-03-11 07:17:51 +0000 UTCThe “groomer” and “pedo” arc has been very pervasive. What started out in pizza gate has transformed into actual legislation in Texas and has been cited by the FL governors communication lead Christina Pushaw. It’s a narrative that is very active at the Ben Shapiro/Dailywire level and you see in public comment from such luminaries as JK Rowling.

2022-03-09 18:54:21 +0000 UTCI was having a discussion here a few threads back about whether Dr Peter Attia has fallen of the purely scientific track and into right wing culture war crap. Today I noticed on twitter he has just been arguing with the traffic department about trying to get a new licence plate.https://twitter.com/PeterAttiaMD/status/1499876210029080580?t=a3hXhGUcY1GGcGw0b99aMg&s=19 Perhaps an idea for a future guru. But also sad because I feel sure he didn't used to be like that. It seems like audiance capture after he ran into issues trying to promote vaccines to his audience which consisted of a lot of conspirituality wellness types and almost falling out with half of his fans.

2022-03-09 07:23:02 +0000 UTCThere needs to be a special place in hell... or, at least, in Gurometry, for the kind of insanity and malfeasance evidenced here by this attribution of child sexual torture to ones political foes. This is the sort of utterly intentional rhetoric (on Lindsay, O'Fallon and their ilk's part) that drives otherwise passably normal folk to dangerous behavioral extremes. You would expect the sheer extremity of it to drive most people away -- but it is held back and couched in so much more normal culturally inflammatory speech and only whispered at or brought in on the back of mundane disputes. Is there a category for this in the Gurometer? Am I wrong to say this sort of crap is even beyond those quintessential Gurus, the Weinsteins, and their posses? This needs to put these folks in a special category. This is a special sort of sick.

2022-03-08 15:46:00 +0000 UTCIt's pronounced nu-clear, not nu-ku-lur. Unless you were using nukulur ironically in which case I missed the irony.
