"If you look at the push towards tokenization of assets, towards central bank digital currencies—that is programmable money that can be turned off if you displease the powers that be. If you look at the creation of these massive data centers, is that really about citizen use of AI? Maybe some of it is, but is it really about creating a storehouse of information that will allow you to be controlled and locked down? That’s certainly the impression I have. We didn’t have a discussion about any of this. This is happening, and then we have to react to it because it’s all on a freight train headed down the line… and we’re always playing defense. So it’s pretty frightening stuff. And at some level, we have a moral right to object. We’re not being given the opportunity to object..."Watch the full episode, "What the Flock" here on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MD6ol262NFI...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9DXvKH36rY

On this, our 333rd Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss how to avoid mosquitoes without DEET, whether Gen Z is really doing better than the generations before it (as some research and headlines proclaim), and what the hell happened to Wikipedia. First: catnip is as effective as DEET in dissuading mosquitoes (but you might end up attracting cats). Next: New research suggests that GenZ is doing great, financially, but dig just a little, and find the research deeply flawed. Finally: Larry Sanger named and led Wikipedia in 2001, and he has now been permanently blocked from the site. It has become an ideological racket rather than an encyclopedia, but we need an encyclopedia. How do we get it back?*****Our sponsors:American Financing: NMLS #182334 nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

"They could go naming people and, you know, malfeasance aplenty and they would mean nothing to us 250 years later. This means everything to us because it isn't mired in the particulars of even this instance of tyranny. It's made as an argument against when tyrants do this, you have the right to respond in this way. That's where it comes from. And they, of course, knew that their right to respond this way did not protect them from being killed by the crown for saying these things. They all understood that. It was very explicit. Franklin himself, I believe, said, 'we must hang together or surely we will all hang separately.' Right? They understood they were putting their lives on the line. But they also understood that they had the right to make that gamble and in some sense, the obligation to do it because the tyranny was intolerable."...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAZRw7BcuCc

Dr. Bret Weinstein shares the important distinction between what it means to be a patriot versus a nationalist."Patriotism is a willingness to sacrifice on behalf of something.Nationalism is the desire to use a something, like a nation, to advance your agenda.So in other words, do you want to use your nation in order to accomplish something? Or are you willing to sacrifice for your nation because you think it's that important?They are not the same thing. They are almost the inverse.And I think they are very well captured in John F. Kennedy's quote:'Ask not what your country can do for you' — nationalism.'Ask what you can do for your country.'Your country is the lifeblood of your population. Your willingness to sacrifice to keep it going and to improve it is the fundamental thing.It's not like he was saying, give everything to your country and it's not required to give anything back. The point is it's already giving you so much back. Ask how you can advance IT."...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCqjLgjLCNY

We are a big, brash, diverse, loud country that has certainly made lots of errors. But frankly, the enthusiasm that you see in the parts of the country where the World Cup is, is extraordinary.The fact is that, especially for Europeans—and the other Western countries—coming here and seeing the scale… the fact that the West, and the Mountain West, and the Midwest, which is not really the West at all, and the Northeast, and the South, and then Texas and Florida, which are places unto themselves—and that’s just the continental 48, and the Great Plains. It’s so diverse, not just geographically, but culturally and culinarily. It’s an incredible landmass with an incredible diversity of people.And yeah, have we had an arrogance that made “ugly Americans” a thing all over the world. Like, okay, here come the people who think that by just speaking English louder, anyone will be able to understand English. Yeah, that’s true about a lot of Americans.But it has been pleasurable to see the joy that people coming to the United States taken in what it is that we are.- Dr. Heather Heying, Episode 332 of The Evolutionary Lens, “The American Experiment at 250” on DarkHorse.Available wherever you subscribe to podcasts.

Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying review and discuss how both Common Sense and the Declaration of Independence provided self-evident truths that prompted the formation of a new nation in 1776. As part of this discussion they cover patriotism, antifa, dual vs hierarchical loyalties, Trump, the World Cup, and taking advantage of breaks.

The modern democratic left does not understand this. It sees nothing but grievances and sees nothing as an alternative to them, but burn it all down. And as no idea, apparently, either they say it cynically and they know what's coming and those who are really driving the policy believe they will benefit from chaos or they don't know. In many cases, the rank and file do not understand that what they are inviting as a replacement for the things they find galling is warlordism, right? Or despotism or some mixture of the two. And it's not something you would contemplate if you had a marvelous country with major flaws. You would, you would fix the flaws, but you wouldn't upend it....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lc50pdfU5qY

On this, our 332nd Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss America’s 250th birthday. In 1776, both Common Sense and the Declaration of Independence provided self-evident truths that prompted the formation of a new nation. Built on optimism and an entrepreneurial spirit, the United States of America is fracturing along political lines, each side incapable of seeing the humanity of people who believe different things from themselves. In those 250 year old documents we see implicit recognition of trade-offs, game theory and emergence—all of which are just as fundamental now as they were then. As part of this discussion we cover patriotism, antifa, dual vs hierarchical loyalties, Trump, the World Cup, and taking advantage of breaks.*****Our sponsors:Timeline: Accelerate the clearing of damaged mitochondria to improve strength and endurance: Go to http://www.timeline.com/darkhorse and use code darkhorse for 20% off your first order.ARMRA Colostrum is an ancient bioactive whole food that can strengthen your immune system.

Now we have 85 Sharia courts, which is quite extraordinary.Bret Weinstein: "How can you have Sharia courts?" Rupert Lowe: "Well, you tell me, Bret, this is a country with our laws.And as I say, I'm very happy for you to come here and integrate. These people aren't integrating. They're living their sort of almost tribal lives — they're like sort of probably we were a thousand years ago with sort of family loyalties and community loyalties, which trump every other race.So in the end, you get all sorts of dishonesty. But again, our state has not been prepared to deal with this."Bret Weinstein: "But how can you have a Sharia court in Great Britain?

"The idea that the only thing you should be thinking about with regard to sunscreen—should I use it or not?—is your risk of skin cancer, is patently wrong. So again, be thinking about the effects on your overall health and whether or not being exposed to the sun might be good for you. And the answer has to be yes. The answer has to be yes, because we evolved outdoors under the sun."Should you slather yourself in sunscreen, stay indoors, or seek moderate exposure to the sun that grows in intensity that more your skin becomes acclimated to the season? Heather and Dr. Bret Weinstein share how they, as evolutionary biologists, approach the subject of sun exposure in Episode 331 of The Evolutionary Lens....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ry_atmHtnuI

On this, our 331st Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss sunscreen and vegans. It’s Summer, and the sun is out! Should you slather yourself in sunscreen, stay indoors, or seek moderate exposure to the sun that grows in intensity that more your skin becomes acclimated to the season? The last, of course. Research has found that sunscreen use may be positively correlated with skin cancer, but a) “sunscreen” is not just one thing, and most but not all sunscreen is positively toxic, and b) all cause mortality is lower in people who get regular (non-sunscreened) sun exposure, so even if sunscreen does lower your risk of skin cancer—the sun is protecting your health in other ways. Also consider ditching the sunglasses, and donning a hat. Then: even the New York Times can’t figure out whose team they’re on, as a vegan in Portland tries to get Oregonians to outlaw hunting, fishing, animal research, conventional livestock production, and “lethal pest control.”*****Our sponsors:Mud/WTR: Start your new morning ritual & get up to 43% off your @MUDWTR with code DarkHorse at http://mudwtr.com/DarkHorse #mudwtrpod Caraway: save up to $230 on the 12 piece cookware set vs buying the products individually; include minis duo & save up to $350.

He knows this stuff as well as anybody. He's really encyclopedic in his understanding of science, the fraud that masquerades the science, the hidden hazards in the vaccines. He knows the COVID vaccine story backwards and forwards.And yet in his position, he is presumably forced to work delicately. I assume knowing him that he's doing everything he can to move the ball in the right direction. But in a case like this, where you have the DOJ sandbagging it for pharma reasons, there's just a question of, well, what world are we in?"Attorney, Bobbie Anne Cox explains what RFK Jr. is up against in 2026 in her appearance on Bret Weinstein's DarkHorse Inside Rails....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYDihG0df1o

"We are going to have an endless battle in which those of us who see what we believe is clear evidence of some kind of election rigging or fraud are faced with indignation from a vast array of people portraying themselves as more rigorous and careful who say, 'Where is your evidence? Where exactly is your evidence that there was something wrong with this election?' And we are gonna be caught in the following predicament.No piece of evidence is sufficient to establish that case. And the sum total of all of the evidence contains true things and false things. So it is also no good. So the question is, can you logically deduce that something has gone wrong? I believe you can easily.Can you prove it? No.And not being able to prove it means that the election will proceed. It will be validated by all of the structures, including the courts. And that means that those who take on the power that derives from these elections will be the result of whatever process we just went through, whether it was an election that happened to be anomalous through organic means, or it was the result of some kind of fraud or election rigging. That is not an accident. That is not an accident. And the point that I wanna make primarily is the primary evidence against elections that look like this being organic is not actually in the trickle of evidence that we are actually able to see, the moment by moment vote count that does something strange during the night when some large tranche of ballots is suddenly counted or something like that. The evidence is in the structure of how the elections are actually carried out. These elections are designed to allow fraud that cannot be detected and will not be prosecuted. And that's really the thing that we must focus on."...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VK_hGwRJrpE

On this, our 329th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we continue to discuss the West. We begin with readings of glorious California—from Stegner to Chandler to Didion—and reminisce about our own time growing up in LA. Then: the elections in California seem rigged, and if your elections are rigged, you don’t have a democracy. Paper polls worked; in-person voting worked; exit polls provided information. Why did our elections change? The system as it stands is an invitation to fraud. A democratic republic is the only viable alternative, and Democrats are destroying the goose that lays the golden eggs, which makes the marvelous life of most people—including the men singing about not taking it anymore--possible. Meanwhile in the state of Washington: the newest Executive Order demonstrates just how spineless, powerless, and in need of replacement, our leaders are. EO 26-01 purports to address menopausal and perimenopausal symptoms; instead, it is a pandering, bureaucratic, gameable, woke, anti-scientific mess.

“The glass is already being broken out on the new Throne Labs Smart Portable restrooms in Seattle, Washington.”Why?!Bret Weinstein explains what the Woke Revolution is, and why would it be doing what it’s doing…“My argument has been that this is, cryptically, an attack on civilization from people who probably correctly understand that they are in a competitive system, and they are so damaged by the time they get to adulthood that they couldn’t possibly win.So, if you’re in a system where you’re built to be a loser, your incentive to keep that system running is minimal.And the idea that anybody—I mean, we all use toilets—would attack public toilets that they might themselves need is an expression of this hostility to the functioning of society.It’s not a complaint that society isn’t functioning. It’s an attack on the functionality of society, because the whole point is: we’re going to level this.”...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9L-It2eDJqE

...it's actually all about preserving the West. Whether it's the fentanyl addicts hanging out their fent leans across the West Coast, or the immigrants in Paris burning down Paris, or bathrooms in Seattle that are being broken - they can't function weeks before they're existing for. All of this is of a piece, which is we need the West, we have benefited from the West, we will continue to thrive under the rules and responsibilities of the West, and it is giving up on those which many politicians who call themselves liberals have done, which is causing the decline....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1iCvsiTH68

On this, our 328th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss fires in the West, both literal and metaphorical. First: the mayoral race in LA, and race politics. Then: rioting in Paris after a soccer win—not mere hooliganism, but also due to race politics and immigration. The World Cup is coming to Seattle—but what to do about the homeless people? Build a “low barrier” tiny home community out of sight of the tourists, where drug addicts are encouraged to relocate. New public toilets in Seattle were destroyed within weeks, though—will tiny homes be sufficient to protect soccer fans? Also: it’s pride month!

AI is Being Deployed as "Degenerate Intellectual Communism" - Bret Weinstein"So on the one hand, you've got the AIs hoovering up all of this product of human intellectual activity, and then regurgitating it. But not really just regurgitating it—actually using it as the material of useful coherent thought, producing what appears to be thoughtful insight that is really the result of having scooped up all of these insights and then making the emergent property of it as the product.So here's the point.From each according to his ability, to each according to his need, okay?They've taken from each of us according to our ability, right? People who say things that aren't very useful aren't going to get integrated into these models at a high level, and people who say things that are particularly insightful are going to have their stuff utilized because it's gonna result in a better product, which results in this thing being saleable.To each according to his need... nope.You're gonna have to pay for your level of access to this thing. We've all put our heart and soul into it, whether we intended to or not, but you are gonna have to pay a private entity in order to access the product. So my point is it has the worst element of communism: from each according to his ability. Those who are highly productive will have all of their product loaded into this thing, and those who are lazy will have nothing useful loaded into it, and so it will steal from people in proportion to their contribution. And then we are gonna be charged for our level of access.To each according to his need? No. You may need top-level AI. You may have done high-quality work that got ingested into the AI and is therefore serving other people. And you may need top-level access that you can't afford to buy. Sorry.So this is why I say it's "degenerate intellectual communism." It has the essential element of communism: from each according to his ability. You will invest in this thing and you don't have a goddamn choice about it. But your needs? Unimportant."...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29DucHIF_3E

Spencer Pratt was accused of sharing a "MAGA Republican's idea of what Los Angeles looks like" at the mayoral debate.But as Heather Heying points out, "she has no argument."Bret Weinstein explains: "Why don't you have arguments? Because there aren't any. Because the entire basis of the policy that you've been advocating is nonsense. It's illogical.

"The answer is interesting. It has to do with the fact that the way the drug takes out your consciousness, it leaves mechanisms—your proprioception is effectively left intact enough to keep you on your feet—resulting in what I think is technically called the fentanyl hang.But the point is, this is so extreme that we don’t have the proper language for talking about it."...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MI3OfCD6nj0

Heather Heying, during the most recent DarkHorse episode, shares that empathy for addicts should not come at the expense of functioning communities. Watch the full episode: https://youtube.com/live/WWnhO_hTQs8"This is a theme in Pratt's messaging: what we are seeing from the leadership of these West Coast cities, and from the states as well, is this suicidal empathy for those who have found themselves in a position where they cannot help themselves.And in some cases, they did that to themselves. And in some cases, society and the conditions into which they were born were working against them from the beginning. But regardless of how they got there, they are in a position where they cannot help themselves.And it is presumably our responsibility as a civilization to help those who cannot help themselves. It is not our responsibility, as citizens in a civilization, to prioritize their needs over our own. It is not. It cannot be. It never should have been.And the idea that we have been—many of us, not us, but many, many, many citizens, many individuals—have been conned into believing that it is an honor, it is a virtue, to value those who have less than you above your own success, above that of your own children, above that of your friends and family, that's absurd."*****Join us on Locals!

Bret Weinstein explains that "If what you do is deploy policy that at best is illogical and incompetent with respect to management. You will get decay.The bridges don't fall down all at once.

Bret Weinstein breaks down what it means, and why Americans should be concerned."...unfortunately nobody is minding the store on our behalf. The power of government is terrifying. It has been captured by entities that we have no influence over." - Bret WeinsteinWatch the full episode: https://youtube.com/live/XFNCnEyD5xg*****Join us on Locals!

On this, our 326th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss government and tyranny, environmental toxins and the media, eminent domain, and memories of childhood. Former Washington state governor Christine Gregoire says the state doesn’t have an income problem, it’s got a spending problem—and that unpredictability from legislators is making it impossible for the business community to plan. Stochasticity is impossible to adapt to—for humans, and for other species too. In the most expensive Congressional primary race in U.S. history, incumbent Thomas Massie lost in Kentucky; his opponent was substantively funded by AIPAC. Young people supported Massie; old people did not. The Department of Fish & Wildlife has declared the widely used herbicide atrazine no big deal—but it very much is, beginning with the well-established fact that it turns the frogs…not gay, but aggressive and dysfunctionally hermaphroditic. In Georgia, eminent domain is being invoked to “liberate” people from their houses. And we end with memories of idyllic childhoods in the forests of the Pacific Northwest.*****Our sponsors:MUD\WTR: Start your new morning ritual & get up to 43% off your @MUDWTR with code DARKHORSE at http://mudwtr.com/darkhorse! #mudwtrpodSaunaSpace: deep radiant heat from red and infrared incandescence—detox and decrease pain, reverse screen fatigue and improve your mood. http://Sauna.Space/DarkHorse for 10% off sitewide.Helix: Excellent, sleep-enhancing, American-made mattresses.

On this, our 325th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss Hanta virus and drought. First: what is the natural history of Hantavirus, do any Hantaviruses transmit directly from human to human, and what is going on with the M.V. Hondius, the cruise ship on which Hantavirus has made a stand? Given its mechanisms of action, Ivermectin is likely to treat Hantavirus (a negative sense single-stranded RNA virus), but the WHO dismisses the possibility. Moderna is working on a Hantavirus vaccine, even though the Number Needed to Treat is sky high. What is going on? Then: in Washington state, we’re experiencing a very wet drought. The Department of Ecology has declared a drought (again), and the snow pack is low, but all other indicators—from rivers to reservoirs to soil moisture—are excellent. Cliff Mass, atmospheric scientist, puts the evidence in one place and calls bull on the drought diagnosis.*****Our sponsors:Xlear: Xylitol nasal spray that acts as prophylaxis against respiratory illnesses by reducing the stickiness of bacteria and viruses.
