In this 250th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens.
In this week’s episode, we discuss the election results. The outcome—Trump in office, and both legislative bodies having a Republican majority—has the strong potential to be positive for everyone, and yet so many people are scared or angry. We discuss why, and provide some reasons that letting go of your fear and anger is the right thing to do. Also: what do exit polls reveal about who voted blue vs red? Who are the women who voted for Trump? How can you level up yourself and your understanding of the world? Then: why is the New York Times producing graphics that omit some of its own data, making it appear that the West coast had no shift in voting between 2020 and 2024 (spoiler: a significant majority of counties across the countries moved red this election). Finally: which party had more people who hoped for authoritarian crackdowns just two years ago? And what did the CDC have planned for the dirty and unvaccinated?

“We can’t blueprint our way out of this puzzle. We certainly can’t conserve our way out of this puzzle. That’s the reason I’m not a conservative.”

"This week I bring you another Covid Era Story. 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.
I am, as always, grateful to you, my readers. Thank you."

Power Perceived is Power Achieved
Have you ever watched that 90’s movie called The Substitute, where the antagonist in the film — the principal — would often use the phrase, “Power perceived is power achieved”? It was a fun film, and that phrase had an impact on me.
As all DH listeners are aware, during Covid there were many small and major victories, although rarely were those victories obvious. For example, it was almost universally accepted that Covid came from nature. It wasn’t until dissident voices embarrassed that narrative to the point of Goliath reluctantly conceded ground.
Something that is very difficult for me is to spot when those victories happen because it usually takes a long time until change takes place, and I’m already caught up in the “Next thing”. I often depend on the likes of DH podcast to point out when Goliath is acting in ways it wishes it didn’t have to, such as reporting on potential vaccine harms or acknowledging natural immunity.
