The Godcast, Episode 356: How to Avoid 5GW Brainwashing

Sadly, in the Current Year there are con men, glowies, and weirdos everywhere fighting for real estate in your mind. Their goal is to make you think and do what they want, and in order to do that they need to trick you into constant consumption of their ideas. Thankfully, there is a helpful set of rules to keep your mind safe: if they can't summarize their ideology on a 3x5 card, explain it in 2 minutes, or if their ideology involves extreme levels of death everywhere...don't give them the time of day. "Do the work!" they'll say. "Read my blog! Listen to my podcast library!" they'll say. This is just a manipulation technique to get you to give more mental real estate to them, which is tragic because their ideology is usually really stupid.  Don't believe us? Fine, let's give you an example. As a Christmas present to our audience (especially those with long travels to visit family), Super has decided to "do the work" of reading and responding to the entirety of the natural law institute's "Constitution," which SOMEHOW successfully got people to commit treason. No really, if someone tells you to read a billion essays or listen to a bunch of sequential brainwashing sessions - I mean podcasts - to understand them, this is proof positive that whatever they say is probably deceptive bullshit.
