“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” -Carl Sagan
That's every narcissist's gift. Knowing what others are striving for, yearning, in order to make use of it and profit.
This reminds me of an insightful line that Contrapoints wrote in 2018: "In history there are ages of reason and there are ages of spectacle, and it’s important to know which you’re in. Our America, our Internet, is not ancient Athens. It’s Rome. And your problem is you think you’re in the forum, when you’re really in the circus."
This “wow.” guy in the audience at 5:10 and again at 5:23 says it all.
“When I’m not feeling generous, I’ll go with that one” - what a brilliantly polite way to acknowledge someone’s overly pessimistic view while pivoting towards something more constructive. I’ll have to remember that one. Useful.
Nailed it.
That was one of the best interview I have ever watched. Tressie put that beautifully. I'm a fan. She is wow.
Profession McMillan Cottom is a gift (and one I feel I do not deserve). Each time I hear her speak or read something she has written I feel I am learning.
I love that! “I went to school too long to be hopeful!”
Oh, what a guest! I’ve never heard her before, but it is really brilliant!
