impulse, this situation really, has filtered down.

We're so used to now turtling up and having our position and sort of deciding this is what I believe on the big issues that it's come down on every other issue now.

We feel like we have to argue as though it's the only possible answer.

And I was trying to understand why we're wired this way.

And so I started reading about a lot of different tribal conflicts throughout recent history, the last 100 years, 200 years.

And so that's why this bothers me so much in the world of wellness and fitness.

Now, there's a lot of quacks.

There's a lot of bullshit.

There are a lot of people who are bad faith actors.

But let's take the bad faith.

There are tons of bad faith actors.

The people posting, I'll just say this, their public service announcement.

If you're on Instagram and someone is showing you a dumbbell complex and they're saying, this is a fat burner.

it's not, right?

That's bad faith.

They know it.

They're appealed.

They're at 3% body fat and they didn't get that way just by doing a dumbbell complex.

You can't spot reduce fat where they say, you know, do this and you'll lose belly fat.

It just doesn't work, right?
