Do not overlook that the entire health food/wellness industrial-complex is based on profound conformity. Oh YES! What did you think it was?

The demonization of sugar, high fructose corn syrup, seed oils, GMOs, vaccines, evil Big Pharma, heavy metals, antibiotics, fluoride, and the glorification and promotion of juicing, wheatgrass, smoothies, kombucha, protein powders, protein bars, calorie counting, high glycemic index, coconut oil, MCT oil, methylene blue, Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, Ozempic, nootropics, Provigil/Modafinil, mushroom supplements, maca, spirulina, chlorella, zeolite, clay masks, gogi berries, probiotics, detox, parasite cleanse, mold, enemas, yoni eggs, fasting, matcha, CBD oil, alkaline water, Fuji water, multi-vitamins, fish oil, krill oil, vitamin water, Bulletproof grifter coffee, collagen, stem cells, organic this, organic that, fat-free, gluten-free, soy-free, BPA-free, phthalate-free, cunt-free, whatever fad diet de jour, locally grown, grass fed, free range eggs, bone broth, beef liver, fermented foods, raw milk, flotation tanks, ice baths, cold showers, Wim Hof, CrossFit, HIIT, Kegels, Pilates, hot yoga, spin class, Peloton, Lululemon, Goop, air purifiers, red light therapy, "all-natural", butt-hole sunbathing, essential oils, incense, scented candles, acupuncture, etc, etc.

What is all this?

It’s largely mindless group-think — never seriously questioned nor tested.

Of course!

Again, conformity is not baked into the thing, it’s in why you do it. Do you know that grass-fed beef is any better for you than regular beef? You have no idea, and those “scientific” studies you want to cite at me are just more reductionist group-think. When it comes to health, you know virtually nothing. You have a bunch of buzz words rolling around in your head that you heard others parrot.

“But Leo! How dare you!”

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

You are just a mindless machine. Even your objections are more group-think. You have not yet earned Autonomy.

If enough of your friends were doing it, you would stick a jalapeno up your butt-hole and call it healthy.

There is a subReddit called /r/MapPorn.

It's a collection of interesting maps like this:

Educate yourself with Map Porn. Fun for the whole family!

Peter Joseph is a very rare, advanced, mature Tier 2 political thinker. I highly recommend his YT channel.

With that said, I think Peter Joseph's political solutions are completely impossible to the point of delusional. But his articulation of our political problems is brilliant.

This is what high quality politics sounds like.
This is what a mature human being sounds like.

Remember Lower vs Higher Perspectives? Well, this is exemplary of a higher perspective. Learn this difference and stop feeding your mind with political scum.

Steamed broccoli is to a Twinkie as Peter Joseph is to Fox News.
How's that for an SAT analogy?

Note: I want to warn you seriously about this notion of eliminating capitalism or the market system. I strongly disagree with Peter Joseph that markets or capitalism can be eliminated. This is a fantasy. It is not going to happen. Not at all! So do not get the wrong idea that just because I recommended Peter Joseph that I endorse eliminating capitalism and markets. I don't have time right now to explain why this will not work. Nevertheless, I want you to watch his videos and learn from his analysis. Take the gold, leave the crap. I expect you to be able to approach sources I share in this way because you are Tier 2 and I share nuanced stuff, not ideology or simple answers. You need to question everything a source says, not just accept it as endorsed by Leo.

I've spent a lot of time developing my own surreal art style for new thumbnails.

I call it "surreal metaphysical".

My thumbnail game is going next level. Here's a taste of what's to come:

The filmmaker Neil Breen is an astounding example of a man with zero self-awareness. He's been making awful, cringe films for two decades with no self-awareness of how bad his film-making is. He literally makes the worst films of all time — but with total passion and delusional self-confidence. It's amazing. His fans watch his work for how bad it is, but he is so self-absorbed and narcissistic he doesn't understand that. He thinks they love his work. But ironically all his films are profitable because they are so bad and he is so delusional that people can't stop watching!

I'm sharing this as an example of how you should not be. This demonstrates why self-awareness is so important.

This isn't a joke topic. Watching Neil Breen makes me much more conscious of my own lack of self-awareness and cringe ways. It's quite salubrious.

Here's the million dollar question for you to contemplate: "How am I like Neil Breen?"
(And I don't mean me, I mean you.)

If you've never seen a Neil Breen film, be warned, you will melt from the cringe. But you should force yourself to watch just to reflect on how ugly lack of self-reflection is. The key insight here is: You have more in common with Neil Breen than you'd like to admit. Rather than laughing at him, you should wonder, "What if I'm as un-self-aware as him?" That is a serious study of self-deception.

(Start at timestamp 23:55)

I dare you to go down the Neil Breen rabbit hole:

• Watching Neil Breen's Double Down
• Watching Neil Breen's Fateful Findings
• We Watched Every Neil Breen Film In One Day

So, you will commit to contemplate how you are like Neil Breen. I will commit to contemplate how I am like Neil Breen. And Neil Breen will to continue to be Neil Breen, holding the line for us all.

Neil Breen is a modern Atlas, nobly bearing the weight of the world's cringe on his shoulders — for us mortals.

Thank you, Sir.
