Transcribe →Mind Meetings #23 - 2021 Wrap-Up w/ Bradley Brown and Kevin Guns
Jan 5, 202201:41:23Tap to summarize2021 Wrap-Up! Some topics covered include - Covid 19 continued, Jan 6th insurrection, Biden/Harris Election, Military withdrawal from Afghanistan, Rittenhouse trialsProblem-solving isn’t enough. People will only problem solve when the positive outcome benefits their team. Doing what is simply right is not enough. When you have scientific experts on both ends of the aisle putting forth evidence that supports their theory, what is the normal citizen supposed to believe? The vaccine for example. Of course, you should perform a cost benefit analysis and calculate probability…. But the actual calculation of probability has also been lost due to professional scientific inquiry telling us conflicting data. With that being said this is how science is supposed to work, you have experts presenting their hypotheses with corresponding data and overtime through increasing data points you come to a closer version of what is “true.” To the counterpoint data seems to be manipulated more than ever. Media, institutions, and medical professionals have been captured. Therefore, the calculation of probability in the short term can be very skewed. The main problem I see is the scientific method with Covid has been broken and captured for a while. The process is ideological based science and is negatively impacting the United States and world at large in trusting institutions.
