Bret doesn't think he's the smartest person in the room. Universe maybe...

yea i get told that all the time and i just say hmm ok and then think on it and maybe change my view if necessary. if i didnt do that i would have never learned anything lol.

People who feel insulted by being told they are factually incorrect know they are lying. That’s my take. Based on the fact that if I say “the earth is round and not flat” and someone tells me I am wrong I just laugh it off.

@@pansepot1490 I got into an argument with a colleague recently about which towers were higher,he was 100% convinced this particular tower was higher than the Eiffel tower which was just plain wrong.

True dat

lmfaoooo well said ... garbage like this show is whats wrong with the world

👌bingo

It took me a long time to even know what the hell you were talking about. I think that fact that you used the term "wet-market theorist" says a lot more about you, than it does this show/it's viewers. I swear, it will be the year 2050...and guys like you will still be complaining about lab leaks and Dr. Fauci.

Majority of it is just.. mocking others.

It?

Because there were people who stood to make millions from big pharma vaccines practically forced on everyone. Including the biggest fraud ever next to Joe Biden, Lord Fauci

'Cause we did, it wasn't 100% effective, you can't claim something is 100% effective, 99.99% sure, but that was one of the disputes. Most protease inhibitors were tested, PI3K inhibitors, AMPK and MAPK inhibitors, tensin homologs when COVID-patients presented with vascular issues. You need a small-cell treatment with high binding affinity and sp2 or sp3 hybridization, meaning the kinase and ligands could be potentiated to lowest effective doses to lessen side effects, or at least their severity. Ivermectin didn't fit the parameters, it was tested, if you look at cancer, specifically small-cell lymphoma, or HIV/AIDS treatment, you'll find COVID-treatment testing did well to find treatment for other intervention. OMB sucked under Trump, they dolled out grants for irrelevant research when the need for proper replication was immense.

@@TWENTYFO5 Are you a Weinstein enthusiast ? I didn’t know those existed..

I thought that too. If he's going to make that assertion, he's gotta "show his work" or give some sort of citation

Do you have a question about military readiness? I might be able to answer it. I did 5 years with the Navy in the medical field.

Hi soulknife so would any department of the United States of America’s Armed Forces ever consider purposefully hurting all of their recruits for no apparent reason? I think this is a slam dunk answer here.

I remember a pre-covid time, when he talked about papers and analysed single words in the papers and pointed out that this is an inaccurate statement etc. And then covid came and the guy turned into an expert for everything and went completely nuts. He is so far gone, there is no topic in the world now where he does not think he is smart enough to be an expert. Great example how a (slightly) above average IQ guy can fall into that Dunning-Kruger hole combined with a dozen other biases and effects. I was wondering, what he does after covid - seems like he is still trapped in that hole and keeps digging. That guy was a teacher in a not great college before he had his woke-incident, which resulted in Joe Rogan "you should do a podcast"-fame. He has published nothing in his entire career except a very flawed paper once and runs around with a Galileo-complex as the right wing poster boy scientist. God, i just watched 30 seconds of his podcast, he talks about the FTX collapse and how there is clearly a connection to the Ukraine and Energy politics, where "the Bidens" have a pervert interest and it is connected to ivermectin and they know more about that topic because they have been tentacled into it... that guy is so far gone and his wife sits next to him and nods and doubles down. Well, if it sells supplements and CBD i guess.

@@hughquigley5337 There's the Edgewood Arsenal human experiments, but that was small in it's scale of damage

Doesn’t matter what you saw, Bret is a grifter or either really delusional.

You, sir, hit the nail right on the mother fucking head.

Did you watch the whole podcast before arriving at that summary? Imo, Brett's decision to decline the invitation was an executive and rational one, not emotional or egotistical . If someone said to me: " I think you're crazy and lack any credibility - do you want to come 'round to my place for dinner?" I'd decline to spend my precious time in the company of such a person. And considering their view of me, I certainly wouldn't want to lend them the favour of my name, in attracting others to the dinner party who otherwise wouldn't be interested in attending.

@@Sarahpreecenelsonnz And if I were a fragile little baby who got his feewings huwt, I'd probably also lie and claim the other person said to me: "I think you're crazy and lack any credibility."

The left is always getting offended, u give them facts and they label u a “science denial “ cause they can’t come up with a reasonable explanation 😂 these leftest extremists are delusional.

@@Sarahpreecenelsonnz well that's just means that you aren't capable of defending your own stance...

Man. This really made me miss Michael again.

Yeah, I remember Michael being a fan (because I was a big fan) of his book The Evolution of God. MR should have him on.

Wright is smart and a good interviewer though I'm not fully in on the ev psych stuff. Don't know why theyd have him on though other than to talk about this incident. Sam certainly appreciates his sarcasm!

@@numberonedad just talking about this incident is enough for me. it's fucking hilarious!

They connected over Buddhism practices, including meditation. Sam doesn't share those interests, but it's a major aspect of Bob Wright's life + intellectual practice, & Michael meditated & they shared the interest in how that practice changed the brain, person, life, etc.

@@MrYago-xd7um ha ha ha... so true

@@haitiancreolewithluciano fact

As I just said in another thread, its a very sad downfall. At times during the whole COVID issues he was a voice of balance asking valid questions particularly on the lab leak. But then he just started sliding into nonsense and anyone who questioned his position was a an enemy. This is one of the big problems when we have issues like COVID. Everyone needs to be prepared to accept they can be wrong when nobody has the full picture. But we now live in such a polarised time where any and every public discussion is immediately dragged into radical positions where proponents just scream at anyone who disagrees with them. A lot of public issues are complex and there is no simple answer and there is no simple fix. So long as public discussion is tribalized or hijacked by bad faith actors there is no chance of finding solutions.

Someone had to be pulling the strings from behind the curtain.

Yeah because these last two years there's no kind of conspiracy to screw over the common citizens of the world with this idiot pandemic right I mean of course we all said it was a lab leak you called us conspiracy theorist causes crazy but of course that's been proven true we all told you faucci was the one directing gain of function research when he was not supposed to and you called us conspiracy theorist and called us crazy and well oops yet another conspiracy that was true so you'll have to forgive me if I don't judge a Man too harshly by saying something's conspiracy when he was right about 10 or 11 other conspiracies in this crap ass pandemic

@@Mr_Hassell these comments seem very suspicious to me. Inauthentic suspicious coordinated behavior. Probably goes all the way to the top.

Yeah, conspiracies never happen.

You live in denial. The powerful constantly conspire and/or have mutual interests. It ain't rocket science it's basic human behaviour. You like to live to la la land because the reality of the world(and in particular politics) is far to scary for you to actually think about. Thus your cognitive dissonance just keeps getting worse.

Yup! Of course!

Forget Crowder, think one of those "10 times fox got owned" videos and realize this is up there in embarrassment. The friggin' no-go zone guy melted less than Bret.

A study of their family system going back a few generations would be kind of interesting. I’m a retired therapist. I’m always wondering what family dynamics made these people who they are. If you’re human, u r from a dysfunctional family. No one exempt... some just hide it better than others. I find them just kind of sad. It’s as if they think any of us are exempt from human suffering at the hands of the powers that be. World history says otherwise. We lived in a golden slice of time in the USA.. ( not everyone)... but many. Those days never last forever.☠️☮️

Well yeah, although pointing this out to people who voluntarily watches this channel seems pretty futile to put it gently. Half of the commenters claim they laughed hysterically watching this clip. I don't know about you but I find that quite alarming, regardless of what viewpoint one would have on the topic. It's the third time I stumble over this channel and the hosts are just as unpalatable, cringy and lowbrow as before, yet their audience seem to think of Bret Weinstein as an intellectual midget compared to themselves. While Bret may have his blind spots and hangups, this crowd is what I believe you could safely and legitimately for all means and purposes label Beyond reach.

@@hansteike3154 Sadly, you are correct. It's the laughing and sneering at very decent and credible people that saddens me. They think they are somehow superior to the MAGA side but they're the other side of the same hate coin.

He’s so disappointing he was great before Covid and now he’s despicable.

Yup, he will never venture into anything that contradicts his opinion with actual facts…

@@gorillaguerillaDK indoobatibbly.

you guys have clearly not watched the podcast. For the great majority of the episode Robert was conceding that he hadn't done the research to challenge Bret's assertion... he utterly embarassed himself the entire episode. He agreed with every premise that led to Bret's assertion and then said it wasn't logical. Trying to flip this as a Bret fail is something that I'd expect from ignorant or malicious right wing extremists or the Young Turks. You should watch the full unedited podcast and reconsider your position.

Brett Weinstein point out the fact that the vaccine isnt healthy and Covid was manufactured both of which have been proven to be true. What are you people not understanding? The CDC admits the Pfizer vaccine causes myocarditis and other problems. Y’all are so busy looking for you’re a moment to prove that you were right after all, instead of looking for the facts. that’s been the problem this whole time. y’all never entered the discussion, wanting the truth you entered the discussion, wanting to win, that is the definition of ignorance! Voice text has gotten worse, including punctuation

@@joshnic6639 pull your head out, it’s lodged too deep.

Its motivated reasoning, or lack of reasoning lol

Paying attention still isn't your strong point.

@@maryhalverson5713 is that wrong ?

Weinsteins response was legitimate - "if we gave people two things and it was 100 percent effective, why are we not doing that". Yet the response is "how are you so sure it was ivermectin that helped? Now, ignore the study and go get the big pharma vaccine". Was that really that difficult to understand?

If the combination of the 2 was extremely effective, why not use them to treat Covid? Instead we got a crappy high profit medication from Pfizer that no one took

Don't forget without a control.

..But Bret is always pedantic. No trying involved when it's a condition of his career.

What was the point? Looked like he forgot to mention both things, either way if its one or both, its a game changer for treatment. Seems like splitting that hair is the very definition of pedantic. If it turns out to be true, i would have a hard conscious issue with allowing untold lives lost.

@@thesecondquestion The point was that he didn't think Bret was the most trustworthy person to listen to about the topic because of the way he presented that study. He showed how he presented the study in a dishonest manner and it made Bret untrustworthy on the topic to him. He showed how the study pretty much disagreed with Bret's conclusion, when Bret was trying to use the study to back up his conclusion. And he kept saying pretty much, just on that topic, he felt Bert was untrustworthy.

@@terrencelockett4072 thanks Terrance, honest open conversation is so important.

He did some podcast episodes with Michael Brooks

@@hughquigley5337 He is. He's also interested in politics/foreign policy stuff and is very good at entertaining different ideas, giving them a fair shot, but also criticising them. I've never known him to profess more certainty than is merited.

Sounding reasonable is evidence that’s he’s wrong?

@@LesserMoffHootkins no, it’s the veneer of being this calm, rational and reasonable person when what you’re saying is ridiculous and then you can go ahead and say that you’re just being this truth seeker and that the people harshly criticising you are the wrong ones due to their harshness.

You would if you are antivax and need to be reaffirmed on your misguided belief and keep on feeling vindicated in your bubble. Which is true? Bret really believes in what he is saying or the money from clicks is too easy and too good to refuse?

I wouldn't necessarily take him as credible. He does have a doctoral degree in evolutionary biology, an undergrad degree in biology, and was a professor. He's not an MD or virologist. Still, it's nice to get differing views on things. I'd say he's more credible than these hosts or Robert Wright on matters of biology.

He and the brave few like him are precisely what is needed in a world captured by corporate interests and corrupt officials obfuscating the truth to protect their donors bottom line. Fauci's emails now prove he knew there were grave doubts COVID wasn't zoonotic. There is literally no plausible explanation below corruption because incompetence couldn't have accounted for the litany of systemic errors that persist to this day. Most notably in mandates for children and the armed forces. The vaccines didn't control the pandemic. Big pharma knew they weren't fit for purpose in prevention of transmission and the safety records were so patchy we won't see them for 75 years while they enjoy record profits.
