It's not like, oh, this got awkward.
It's like, the tone is identical, because you're just playing intellectually either way, because it's a good high or wrong space.
And which ones are, bring it on.
When you say triggering, I mean, who's getting triggered?
The primitive mind.
So what you're trying to do, what you're saying in this language is how do you have conversations with other people's higher minds, almost like whispering, without waking up the primitive mind.
The primitive mind is there sleeping, right?
And as soon as you say something, the left primitive mind gets up and says, what?
What are you saying about the left?
And now everything goes off the rails.
So here's the thing about conspiracy theories is that once in a while they're true, right?
Because sometimes there's an actual conspiracy.
Actually, humans are pretty good at real conspiracies, secret things.
And then, you know, I just watched the Madoff doc.
Great new Netflix doc, by the way.
And so the question is,
How do you create a system that is good at, you put the conspiracy theory in, and it either goes, eh, or it says, this is interesting, let's keep exploring it.
How do you do something that it can, how do you assess?
And so again, I think the high-rung culture
is really good at it because a real conspiracy, what's going to happen is you put it, it's like a little machine you put in the middle of the table and everyone starts firing darts at it, a bow and arrow or whatever.
