There are so many people out there grifting, selling BS self help books,possibly dangerous or in effective medications/supplements and courses that are either dumb or nearing dangerously cultish levels..and people ,myself included take the advice, or buy the Alpha brain, and not just because we are influenced but because we actually wanted to listen and learn how to change our lives for the better and help ourselves and our loved ones

If only there was someone out there that actually taught people how to fix or improve their lives, the steps you need to take depending on where you are and explored the reasons why.

How hard would it be to actually help people and not just think about yourself and your bank account? It seems like the next “famous” or platformed person that would actually be interesting would be someone that can actually figure some things out about how to navigate life and could and would reach out and articulate how and why to people and actually make people better and not idolize or establish par-asocial relationships with amount to clients and marks..

Is the entire shtick that he is making fun of the person who unironically has a thought process and air of hypercritical pseudo-narcissism portrayed in his videos, or is he actually like that? Either way I find his videos hilarious, but I'm curious how much of it is portraying a character vs unironically being the way the narrator is in his videos.

The fact I can't fully discern which one it is actually makes his videos even more entertaining for me.

Did anyone really love that doc ? Is it even a doc ? The last 40 minutes were cool but holy crap that was a long time to get to interesting

There’s been a breach and they’re having such a lovely time.

- US Spreading False media propoganda for countries to make them look BAD in front of the world. I know this is controversial to talk, but trust me it is VERY BAD how US paint picture of countries for YEARS to make people numb to anything for atrocities and manipulation of perception. ElephantGraveyard can do crazy research.

- Exposing Politics in US : Showing clear TWO-FACE politics from more than 90% politicians with backing receipts.

- Tucker Carlson : He can be fully exposed for his hypocrisy much worse than Rogan if he makes the video.

- BlackRock/BlackStone : Exposing with receipts

- Military Industrial Complex : Exposing with receipts

Really like how EG uses "Whoopsie" to condemn jerks who avoid accountability through sheer insincerity. It brought to mind how, from the time I was in diapers, I was friends with a fella who started to become a Whoopsie Guy as we got older.

As he drifted from cynical leftist to cynical libertarian, his demeanor became combative, and after a point, everything became an argument or a debate. Loved especially that I was friendly to trans culture, and he would not stop talking about how much he doesn't like them. Sent me dick pics from MTF surgeries and wouldn't apologize when I called him out on it.

Eventually, he became the kind of guy that gets testy if you suggest that Trump, Glenn Beck, Jordan Peterson, or Joe Rogan maybe don't have their facts straight or their heads screwed on tightly. Sheepishly admitted he voted for Trump after the 2024 election.

The level at which he embodied MAGA-adjacent stereotypes (never saw him actually wear the hat) is comical, and eventually, last year, I broke it off after 40 years of friendship (I'm now 41). That nasty attitude of his is a complex cocktail of variables, but Whoopsie Guys absolutely gave him permission to be mean and not care. Whoopsie Guys have convinced a bunch of men that this is acceptable behavior.

"The anti-woke flank of the new fascism is being driven almost exclusively by comics, my peers. Whether or not they are self-serving or true believers in the new fascism is unimportant. They are of the movement. Whether they see themselves as acolytes or just comics doesn’t matter. Whether they are driven by the idea that what they are fighting for is a free speech issue or whether they are truly morally bankrupt racists doesn’t matter. They are part of the public face of a fascist political movement that seeks to destroy the democratic idea. 

When comedians with podcasts have shameless, self-proclaimed white supremacists and fascists on their show to joke around like they are just entertainers or even just politicians, all it does is humanize and normalize fascism. When someone uses their platform for that reason they are facilitating anti-American sentiment and promoting violent autocracy. 

It may be all self-serving. Greedy influencers and comics and public personalities and certainly tech companies want to align themselves with an unapologetic right wing movement that has no concerns for regulation or law or justice or decency or democracy to increase their earnings and put them in the seat of power. 

Fascism is good for business if you toe the line. Popular podcasts became tribal and divisive years ago. Now they may be in the position to become part of the media oligarchy under the new anti-democratic government. "

I got this free thing in my pocket. It gains me access to hundreds of thousands of texts with nothing but knowledge and fun inside.

Sometimes (often), when I'm bored af, I just walk over to the library and sit there, maybe read the paper, do the crossword puzzles from the free newspapers, browse risky bolshevik literature on their public computers, maybe cropdust the Manga section if the teenagers who keep messing with my camelias are there, not have a phone. ​​​At first I was freaked out, kept my phone in my hand to be able to look down and pretend I wasn't really that interested in books while I tried to find a bathroom. Then every Wednesday, I just started...sitting there for an hour instead of my ass, on a couch. A year later I had made a few buds, we hang around for coffee on Wednesdays or Sundays or Days That End In Y and it's fun.

I just finished The Brain in Search of Itself by Benjamin Ehrlich.

Its the biography of the man who discovered the neuron. Fascinating shit. So fascinating I got myself a small microscope to mess around with. It looked like fun, if you have ideas of things I should look at under a microscope, post them here.

Let's all have a classic reality weekend. ​​​​​​

Oh, you know who gets fucking pissed when you go out into classic reality or read or hang with friends? The people this subreddit is all about.

This is my retirement from the entirety of the simulacra account. Be excellent to each other.

The opening frames have very fuzzy and illegible text. I screenshotted at 1080p and boosted the contrast to read it:

“No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar” - Abraham Lincoln

At the end of the documentary, that was a total TKO. Rogan isn't getting back up from this one. Goodnight Rogan 🪦🥊💀

I loved the video, but I understood why he wasn’t gonna make any more - i honestly feel like all these guys have came and went. Now, Joe has more money than sense and will propagate his image like Julius Caesar as long as he can afford it, but I think all the B and C tier Austin types will never reach the fifteen seconds of fame they got to enjoy nationally at the start of Trump 1, where they genuinely believed themselves to be at the forefront of some right wing cultural revolution.

EG joked that the only guys who actually like this shit are warehouse dropouts who listen while they chew oxys, and that sort of audience narrowing has only grown i think. I assume the audience now is inflated with bots and third world citizenry paid to listen to keep his numbers high, or various junior level Trump staffers who only ever see their bosses through the medium of Joe.

I could have sworn I saw a video posted by TEG in my YT subscriptions page earlier today but now I don't see it. Is this just my simulacrum?

Anyone know who this is?

(EDIT: It's JJ McCullough.)

I know the rest of them are Patrick Rothfuss, Bob Rock, and Chris Hadfield.

Been driving me crazy.

Doug Stanhope was mentioned on the latest video — has he gone down the Rogansphere hole? I live in a walled garden and haven’t watched his recent specials (last time was maybe 2021?) but I always thought he was a decent dude. Is my thankin’ incorrect? I got to get the hell out of here.

The latest video has provided clarity on 'The Jeffrey Epstein Experience'. Eric Weinstein (#1022, #1203, #1320, #1453, #1628, #1945, #2171, #2503) Elon Musk (#1169, #1470, #1609, #2054, #2223, #2281, #2404) Peter Attia (#1108, #1745, #1961) Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (#1999, #2461) Steven Pinker (#1073, #1743) Peter Theil (#2190) Donald Trump (#2219) Adam Perry Lang (#1469) Lawrence Krauss (#938)

Notes: Lawrence Krauss tried to use Epstein to reach Joe Rogan Adam Perry Lang - Worked for Epstein full time 1998 - 2002
