Dr. Alok 'Dr. K' Kanojia

I've met Hasan once.

It was an event with the Surgeon General.

Seemed like a totally cool guy.

I respect the work that he does, like nothing against the dude, okay?

This is not about determining whether he's good or bad.

It's not about psychoanalyzing him or anything like that.

What I want to talk about today is what happens on the internet.

And we're going to be talking about mentalization.

We're going to be talking about online radicalization.

And we're going to be talking about a host of psychological things, including displacement, projection, etc.

So if y'all are here looking for some drama farming kind of stuff, I think basically the drama is over.

I know it sounds weird.

Oh, my God.

Why would you say that?

I have reasons and we can get into those if y'all want.

I think basically Collargate's done, I would hope.

And so that's why I want to talk.

I didn't want to talk about, I didn't want to open my mouth and get embroiled in this stuff while it was live.

But I think it's a really, really great example of like something that is really dangerous.

So there's a failure of mentalization, which we'll talk about what that is.
