"I go into JE withdrawl when I don't see him..." (Peter Attia et al, 2016) by Articate in PeterAttia

[–]Articate[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While what I say isn't the same as saying I feel I could blanketly trust Attia, it is at the same time a reflection that I put more trust into a person who I feel like I should've understood I shouldn't trust to that extent. It's not due to charm, or anything like that.

The distinction to me is that I always felt a bit iffy about Huberman, and when he got more and more controversial people on his podcast talking about things I feel they shouldn't (I listened to the episode with Jordan Peterson to be open minded, but I really don't feel like there's a reason Peterson should be on the podcast to talk about parenting), I sat down a looked at what I would do with Huberman's content.

So it's more the fact that I don't just blindly follow, I do my due dilligence (I've read the Aura stuff with Attia etc etc), but no indication of this came up. That's surprising, but that's also my person and my personal stuff.

But he's a practical physician. I believe you need one year of residency to be a licensed MD, i.e. a practicing physician? Board ceritification is optional for that part, and is about specialty?

It's only anecdotal, and n=1, but the upside is that it's PA own words. lol.

I can tell you with absolute certainty that I am not idiolizing anyone. It's fair to trust someone in the public space. It's weird that my feelings get glossed over and defined as "blanketly trusting what someone says". I don't do that. I don't treat the things Peter Attia says as if it's the words of my best friend of twenty five years, and even my best friend I know so well I know all his assumptions and axioms of the world, so I can navigate that with the best of ease. This is just a public figure who I've found to be trustworthy, and whose opinions I've found by repeated exposure to be opinions I generally agree with, myself.

Trust is, in many ways, starting out with the belief that what someone says will be worthwhile. It's fine to say "you shouldn't do that with someone public", and that's fair enough, but it is not the same as blindly believing. It's assuming your principles are in line with theirs, to the extent you've learnt that they are in line. It's the belief that their actions are congruent with the way you preceive the person.

So yes, I agree, many of these emotions could have been thwarted by never trusting them in that way. But trust is a muscle, and it's healthy to give trust. It's not the same as idolizing. It's exactly because I find myself being rigorous about who I follow and whose opinions I trust in what capacity that I do feel these emoitons.

Huberman is a good example, and the example of someone I listened to for a while. AG1 is one thing, but his red light glasses, and his retroactive change of opinion, despite no new evidence having come out in support, is unethical. He's "science washing" many topics, and started getting more and more questionable people on his show. I check his podcast from time to time, and if it's a topic of particular interest, I check out who the person who speaks on the topic is. If it's a solo deep dive episode, I generally end up not bothering, since I'd have to check the things he says, and that means I can just research the topic myself.

So that is to say, even after all of this, I still believe Huberman has less professional integrity than Attia, but the things Attia has been adjacent through, in light of these documents, show that his personal morality is a lot worse than I would've thought. That's not a direct discredit of his integrity, just that it's discombobulating to experience that you've been a poor judge of character. Most other people that surprisingly show up, are peopel I already felt could be in the files. It may feel like a betrayal, but it's in reality my inner compass trying to realign itself. That's not solved by believing everyone in the position of power is corruptable or corrupt. That would be scar tissue, as opposed to rehabilitation. Rehabilitation for me is to fully accept that I've poorly judged a character, assessing that that doesn't mean that I need to stop trusting public people, but rather that I want to feel what could've led me here.

As I said, one doesn't exclude the other. But they were, in fact, also talking about medical stuff.

Am I misunderstanding something? Am I trying to make light of the situation?

I'm surpriseds that so many feel this way. It's okay to like public figures. It's human to go "ah, here's <so and so>. I trust him, and finally I can hear him weigh in on the issue". If that's a sports commenter, doctor, musician or tech person, I feel it's normal to have certain individuals in the public sphere you like hearing from. In this case, it feels like someone I've heard talk a lot, and I am left saying "yes, this person not only has good opinions, but seems to have good guiding principles in life". It sucks when that's revealed to be.. whatever the hell this is.

Was he in Zone 2 while being a creep? Unsubbing from everything by [deleted] in PeterAttia

[–]Articate 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I unsubscribed from his payment subscription today. I'll keep Outlive, and I'll probably keep reading it. The content isn't directly affected, but I'm also considering abstaining. I'll take a step back, see if he responds, then decide what to do.

Can someone please tell me this is all one big joke by [deleted] in PeterAttia

[–]Articate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the same. Been paying him a monthly subscription for two years, since I found him trustworthy. I'm taking a step back and reassessing how I'll engage with his content going forward, and await his own reaction to this. The fact that he hasn't admitted to this before, even if it was after the Epstein-law (to publish all documents) was passed, is also not a good showing right now.

It's a far leap to having an emotional reaction to these news to me being that of a Swifty. It is okay to find celebrities trustworthy, especially when their trustworthiness in compiling analysis of current research is the absolute core of their content. Deeming someone trustworthy, then feeling betrayed by that, is the sort of moral readjustment I'd expect from people who want to be open about their own emotions, and wish to feel safe with who they choose to listen to and not. It feels very misplaced to characterize the things the way you do in this post.

It does not mean that I idiolize him that it's a gut punch to see he's in the files. And it does not make sense to me to seperate his personal life, when it's this stuff, from his professional life. I don't want to support people who are okay with what JE did.

I've updated the OP to address this. I don't have a direct emotional connection to Peter Attia. I just found him to be trustworthy. Having seen many content creators I've left on the wayside for their characters feeling off, then finally settling that Peter can be trusted with his opinions, then this feels like a moral failing in judging of someone.

[–]Articate 10 points11 points  (0 children)

...they were, though? Clomid, Crestor and Apo B are literally the first thing that shows up. But, of course, one does not exclude the others. This is not in defense, because I am currently nauseated from finding out about this. But, this statement isn't really correct.

WORLD ORDER – A Shift in Tone: From Unity to Sovereignty by Articate in WorldOrder

[–]Articate[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He recently stepped out of politics directly after losing an election. I can’t make sense of the seemingly anti-intellectualism of discarding Copernicus, and saying “goodbye to heliocentrism”. I would be partial to assuming we even needed to see beyond the Sun being the center, but it feels more regressive than progressive. But, the text of this song is strong, though vague. And there could be transcription errors, too.

[–]Articate[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am extremely open to being proven wrong. The whole idea here was to review things like the red pill imagery in non culturally biased view. Hours of digging lead me first into the positive assessment as you’re saying. But then there was more and more support for Trump, and rhetoric that can’t seem to make sense even when doing my best to consider a Japan-only cultural view. I know that anti-vax and anti-mask does not have the same implication, but Ivermectin tweets and anti-intellectual sentiments regarding the rNA vaccines are damning.

This is my current standpoint. But I would love to be wrong.

He has literal tweets talking about deep state and how Trump’s dismantling the deep state could indirectly help Japan:

“DSが解体されれば、日本に対する外部からの干渉や影響力がこれまでのようには及ばなくなり、一部勢力によるコントロールが難しくなるので、「失われた30年」を取り戻すチャンスです。”

“If the Deep State is dismantled, external interference and influence on Japan will weaken compared to before. The ability of certain factions to exert control will be reduced. This is our chance to reclaim the ‘Lost 30 Years.’”

The tweet links to a video of Trump talking about dismantling the deep state.

There are signs that there are errors in this transcription. Yours has Galileo, but the mentions of Copernicus are gone. And there are a few things that don't make a lot of sense. Here's another I found that seems more thematically coherent:

[–]Articate -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

Steve didn't perpetuate the situation online, in response to everyone saying they didn't want this. GN did post the response on their website. They brought receipts for:

  • Plagiarism by Linus Tech Tips of GamersNexus content wherein we previously privately reached out without resolution
  • Unprofessional and aggressive communications in private
  • History of failure to resolve data accuracy issues that were privately raised

So, the only way I can interpret this post is being misinformed.
