Ryan Rogers hosted a roundtable of mental health professionals and me talking about the public response to Charlie Kirk’s assassination and what it says about our moral character as a nation, and as individuals.
I think you’ll enjoy this discussion, perhaps in the background while you’re doing housework or driving. It’s about an hour and 45 minutes.
is an intern in training as a therapist, and author of the book The Woke Mind. He’s a former drug addict and thoroughly based (I’m a former drunk so don’t get bent out of shape, Ryan:).
I really liked that you mentioned we cannot "save" people from Cluster B. They have to be willing to do the work themselves and they have to see that they have a problem like any addict. And just like the best thing we can do for addicts is to not enable them by enforcing boundaries, we can do the same for Cluster B. People just need to enforce boundaries and shame people for shameful behavior.
I follow askgaybros on Reddit,it’s all “this piece of shit Christian homophobe misogynist got what he deserved, here’s his gun quote AGAIN. I’m not losing any sleep over it” apparently unaware of the vile projection and possible storm headed their way because they can’t stop lying and signaling to each other. I know it’s Reddit, but my god. Looking forward to some reasoned conversation. I like Ryan. Great podcast with James Lindsay recently.
