A discussion about Group think and how people do not think for themselves and instead just follow the crowd

Freedom Speak with Becca Mari - Group Think

fe1n (electro edit) - groupthink

"Dumb" as in Dumbo, the most awesome pink Elephant Ever.


Does altruism exist?    Do "Wounded Warriors" only do it to escape their own pain?  Can you really help others after being hurt without perpetuating your "pain pattern"?

Was Kanye's banking really impacted after his comments, or was that just part of a media sensational narrative?  Why does it matter ? 


What does it mean to "neutralize" toxic emotions from your body? How does one achieve this?

Meal Ticket Double Standards

Meta has tweaked the Facebook algorithm to sideline links to news articles and boost "memes"—precisely the format most subject to the fabrications and distortions being aggressively peddled by both sides (yes) in the Gaza conflict. Such propaganda has already been implicated in genocide in Burma and Ethiopia. But even apart from such egregious abuses, memes are dumbing down discourse and entrenching groupthink and dogmatism—and are being pushed by Meta as part of its sinister corporate design to enclose the internet. In Episode 207 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill Weinberg calls for a total moratorium on posting or sharing memes as a means of pressure on Meta to re-emphasize actual news articles, and deep-six the war propaganda.

CounterVortex Podcast

For a meme moratorium

Hej alla lyssnare!

I avsnitt 64 av Holisticpodden tar vi, Anna och Niki, ett djupdyk i konceptet "Groupthink". Vi utforskar hur detta fenomen kan smyga sig in och påverka vår förmåga att fatta beslut i grupper, inte bara på jobbet utan även i vårt privatliv. I vårt samtal väver vi samman fakta och filosofi för att ge er insikter och verktyg som ni kan använda i vardagen.

Precis som i Smurfbyn där varje smurf spelar en viktig roll, från Astrosmurf till Arg smurf, diskuterar vi hur viktigt det är med mångfald i tankesätt och personligheter för att skapa en dynamisk och hälsosam gruppmiljö – och detta gäller lika mycket hemma som i professionella sammanhang. Varje individ bidrar med unika perspektiv och färdigheter som är avgörande för att undvika de fallgropar som groupthink kan leda till.

Holisticpodden är som en pocketcoach i vardagen som hjälper er att förstå och förbättra delarna som utgör helheten. Vi hoppas att det ger er nya perspektiv på hur ni kan stärka både er själva och era nära relationer genom att uppskatta och utnyttja varandras olikheter.

Glöm inte att prenumerera och dela med era vänner om ni tycker om vad ni hör.

San Beulah is a sonic collage, built from fragments of sound—YouTube samples, home recordings, and Splice loops—stitched together into something new. A mix of nostalgia and experimentation, the music blends found textures with original compositions, shaping raw materials into evolving soundscapes.   It’s an edgy exploration using soundscapes—both organic and digital—to process the never-ending bullshit. Most of the vocals were recorded in a shower—that was my studio. That and my MacBook Pro speaker. Like that one piece my friend Noah (who passed from cancer) created: a man sitting in a chair, bombarded by a blast of information from his phone. The message, ironically shared in a digital format, was simple—unplug.  #heartobehere

The scope of this work may seem daunting, but to introduce it, I use a new development from Google: Notebook LM—a groundbreaking tool that connects a vast number of research items, including my own, enabling AI-driven dialogues to uncover core insights. This approach serves as an entryway into the Sphere of Understanding, which I term Acateum.

While I strive to select generative audios that provide meaningful insights, I am uncomfortable with those that include personal praise, as I have never enjoyed compliments. I apologize in advance. Such praise is not an admission of truth, and the AI often oversimplifies phenomena. While these audios offer profound insights, they are less explained than those in my papers, which are freely accessible online. Despite this imperfection, it is far outweighed by the advancements allowing understandable insights through innovative measures that will hopefully accelerate humans far forward.
