Bret Weinstein | Rescue the Republic: The 244th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying @DarkHorsePod | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
In this 244th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens.
In this week’s episode, we discuss excess deaths from 2021 on, and what the insurance industry is recommending that we do (more of the same treatments that got us into this mess!). Related: Francis Collins, the head of the National Institutes of Health during Covid, asks why “facing a common enemy” didn’t bring us together, while celebrating the Covid “vaccines,” drugs, and tests. Scientific American endorses Harris, saying she’s the right choice for your health. Kundera makes no distinction between legal and illegal vandalism. Bret puts forward further arguments for why it is the time to Rescue the Republic, and why fear is not the way forward. Heather reads about serpent badassery at the equinox.
