I'm just not... Yeah, I guess you could say it's riding the fence.
I was thinking critically about mentalizing and... Okay, you can call it that.
So I think that I had enough ambiguity to where, depending on your narrative, you can slot me into either side.
So, like, I said enough anti-Hassan things where people who like Hassan will be like, oh, my God, Dr. K is the enemy.
And I said enough pro-Hassan things to where if you're anti-Hassan, you'll be like, oh, my God, this guy is defending Hassan.
Do you all kind of get that?
So it's not about sitting the fence.
And this is the key thing to understand.
The whole point about the narrative is once you have an idea in mind, you're going to filter what someone says through that narrative.
I have an opinion based on what I've seen of whether the caller is shocking or not.
I do not think that that opinion belongs in this conversation.
I do not think that opinion belongs in public.
I think sharing that opinion is not my area of expertise and I should keep my fucking mouth shut.
I do not think sharing that opinion makes the world a better place in any way, shape, or form.
All it does is encourages narratives.
So people like, oh, so Hassan is cooked.
