Leo must be influenced by thousands of years of religious traditions saying exactly the same thing.

"But he says it differently". Bullshit.

Why do you feel you need to be rude and sarcastic? Its not like what I said was offensive or controversial. 

Watching Alex's career I think he is influenced by Leo. I also think that more people online and IRL are talking about this (ancient) stuff because of Leo. BUT I'm open to being wrong, it could just be confirmation bias at work. Thanks for your engagement in this.

I do actually find it a bit offensive and controversial.

Me speculating that Leo has potentially influenced other YouTubers is offensive to you?

1. You said Leo was a pioneer in these kinds of things, which is wrong. 2. It's not as much speculation as a feeling and simply asserting something to be the case. It's not much logical thinking or explanation involved as far as you've shared. Tell me why you think he pioneered these kinds of topics and why you think he influenced Alex.

I would say the majority of Leo's ideas are not new.

I remember reading a book a while back that was explaining Leo's entire Structure vs Content video and I felt like Leo straight up ripped it off. That's happened a few times.

Convergent evolution.

I did not rip it off.

That's how I felt throughout my entire psychology degree (undergrad and graduate). Structure vs Content in particular I got from this paper:

Good for learning the difference between "the what" (quality, essence, semantics, content), "the how" (quantity, structure, form, algorithm, syntactics) and "the where" (physicality, spatio-temporality, implementation, medium).

Truth is discoverable independently by many people. That's the whole point of truth. When you are looking at a truthful pattern in nature, others can find it too.

If it could only be found by one person, that's how you know it is fiction.

Of course not all the insights I share are my own. I share insights from psychology too.
