We are experimenting with some video recording stuff and so produced this 'short' analysis of recent content from Bret and Heather's anti-vaccine podcast - the DarkHorse.

We will release the video version later but here is a lightly edited audio version.

Content taken from: DarkHorse #193 The Reactionary Clap Trap (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream) 

Enjoy!

They are just absolutely insufferable

A bit like Matt - I know I should be angry because Brett and Heather are covid disinformation super-spreaders, but that was just so OTT batty I just feel baffled and a little sorry for them even though they don't deserve it.

This might reveal a lot about me, but a 'speed decoding' of the 'dark horse' podcast suggests a race announcement format: "Here's Bret and Heather, they're lining up aaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnddd *they're off* there's Bret with the ad hominim to Fauchi, a strong opening; Heathers close behind with an appeal to probability as they round the corner; Bret winks at anti Semitism over the first hurdle; Heather is misusing mathematical terms with a reference to Baysian analysis to refer to Boolean logic; and Bret has slipped! He's slipped! What at Non sequitur! And Heather takes the argument by a nose with an appeal to the Baconian fallacy dressed up as 'evolutionary principles', and will win the straw man."

Question for the Anthropologist and a Psychologist about people being radicalized . Is there a way back ? Are there situations where they have turned it around ? What's the mechanism to do so? Intervention? Listening to theses two, I just can't see a way back. Mental!

What‘s the source for the Mounk stuff?

Linda Sears

That was sad to hear. I do wonder what their listeners are like, for example, are they primarily middle aged white people? The clown car part was amusing at least.

My first experience of Brett was on a YouTube episode he did not long after George Floyd called ‘The Black Intellectual Roundtable’. It had an impressive panel of guests making sophisticated arguments about race and identity politics and there was some decent back and forth….. Brett chimed in at one point about how it was all a conspiracy from the elites to try and start a race war….. I have to imagine his guests were all thinking wtf!! They politely ignored this and carried on conversation in the real world.

An episode of less than an hour? I couldn't believe it. Thanks guys! More of these two would probably have become unbearable.

Chris Snyder

Not going to lie, these episodes with the Weinsteins and Scott Adam’s types are soooo hard to listen to because their voices are sooo grating and say such bat shit insane shite it’s just …. Reallllly Difficult to listen to lol they make me insane!!! Haha

Impressive talents on this guy. Think he will revolutionise the 9/11 truthers.

Hmm stick to the regular decoding fellas. 😅 It kind of felt like I was stuck inside some super long tweet rant of Chris's.

Brett and Heather are so tiresome. Alternate realities. Sigh.
