Yeah, and that should be the attitude anytime you see incongruence between what you're being told and what you're seeing. Right. Like, again, to give the example of you go on the street, if someone on the street tells you, hey, there's a deadly virus coming and everyone's going to die. Well, you would start to look for evidence confirming that fact. Like, do you know anyone who's dying?

Do you know anyone who's falling deathly ill? If you don't see that, then you're going to start to doubt the source of information, who is the person on the street. But remember, by the time that the vaccine came out, we had been in lockdown for like a year. Right. So we had had a long period of time where you could see in your own personal experience where things impacted.

And at least in my personal experience, like I didn't know anyone who was dying. I knew people who had gotten it and gotten over it. So by the time that the vaccine was available in 2021, for me, I'd had like a year's worth of data. And it suggested that this is not as bad as we originally told it could be. And to be clear, like there was a period where we just didn't know, right?

Like in March of 2020, no one knew. So it was reasonable to think there was a non-zero possibility that this is something like the bubonic plague. Of course there is. But as time goes on, you need to increase, you should increase confidence in your hypothesis by getting more data that confirmed the original hypothesis, which was that this was going to be a severe winter of illness and death.

And it wasn't the truth. It Yeah, I mean, you know what I think is going on, and this is, it particularly bothers me when we're talking about people's health, is people are being told to ignore their own experience, to ignore their own senses and own discernment about what's going on in the world, and instead listen to what an information source is telling them.

And it's causing people to just abandon common sense and common sense intuitions and ask questions and really like form their own worldview. And that I think is perhaps the most dangerous part of this information ecosystem that we've now formed. It's overly reliant on expertise and authority while abandoning intuition and common sense.

Yeah. Well, one, they weren't hearings because no one was hearing anyone. It was like an interrogation. Honestly, it was the first time that I ever watched a Senate confirmation hearing live, the Kennedy hearing. And one of the first things I noticed was there was just a lack of genuine curiosity on the part of the senators who were questioning him.
