Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying discuss censorship and the war in Iran:

We have "cartesian blinders being put on us so that we are trying to make sense out of scraps of information and hints." - @bretweinstein

Who exactly belongs in the Stone Ages?

WEINSTEIN: I mean, even if you have your villains who are engaged in the behavior that motivated this war in Iran, even if that's the story, presumably most of the people in the path of these ferocious bombings that he is describing are not deserving of going back to the Stone Age.

In fact, I distinctly remember him telling us that part of what we were up to was liberating the people of Iran from their tyrannical regime.

So if it's the tyrannical regime that justifies the ferocious bombing, then it's a tragedy that other people are going to be sent back to the Stone Ages with them. Right?

HEYING: It's it's not a narrative. It's an incoherent set of talking points.

WEINSTEIN: Yeah, it's a kind of cheerleading that is completely inappropriate from the perspective of the president.

Bret Weinstein discusses the Trump administrations "back to the stone age" recent remarks in the latest episode of The Evolutionary Lens, Episode 320 "Are we back in the stone age?" on DarkHorse.

Washington's 9.9% "Millionaires Tax" Isn't That Simple

Bret Weinstein explains, "If you stop businesses from starting here, and if you drive people so that they move elsewhere—even though it's difficult to do—then the point is the tax base dries up, which then forces you to become even more predatory for the people who stayed.

And that's really the thing, right? They're setting themselves up so that they have to go after more and more people, because the people who are starting new businesses are not going to do it here."

Dr. Heather Heying shares another Covid Era Story on her Substack, Natural Selections.

In "When Care Lost Its Humanity," author Brenda Murphy shares her experience with her mother living in an assisted-living facility in Texas during Covid March 2020.

"By remembering what happened, by sharing our grief, or trauma, or treatment at the hands of others or an impersonal system, perhaps we can begin to heal." - Heather Heying

Why the Tyler Robinson case is the most important thing happening domestically in the US

Have you ever watched the TV series Shōgun? Near the end, Mariko, one of Toranaga’s most trusted allies, is sent to Osaka Castle to request that the noble families being held there be allowed to leave. On the surface, it looks like a diplomatic mission. In reality, it’s a trap. Toranaga knows Ishido’s power depends on everyone pretending those families are “guests” instead of hostages. By simply asking to leave, Mariko forces Ishido into a corner. He can either honor the rules he publicly claims to believe in and let them go, or expose that his entire system is built on a lie. Mariko ultimately sacrifices herself, but in doing so she destroys Ishido’s legitimacy. He breaks his own rules for the whole country to see, and that’s what ultimately causes many of the other lords to abandon him and side with Toranaga.

I think something similar is happening in real time when it comes to the Tyler ...
