As someone who made a new account a while back, it is actually almost every other post when the algorithm isn't trained and it takes ages to so. The only way you can use it with a new account is showing followed accounts only.

Super encouraging at least to hear how quickly Berto could turn it around though.

CJ

Berto (and countless other parents’) vague but somehow equally certain discomfort with the idea of his child being trans is yet another indication of how harmful hetero/cisnormativity really is. And Berto isn’t even on the same level as some of these folks out here doing everything they can to regulate other people’s bodies.

CJ

I really liked this deep dive. I learned a ton and have definitely developed more empathy for Elon. A line you said a while back in this deep dive (my wording is not exact) that “we have traumatized, hurting men in positions of great power” really stuck with me. It’s scary… I also appreciated Berto’s take on what it might feel like to have a child who is trans. I think it’s important to discuss these thoughts and feelings in a safe space and I appreciate his vulnerability and honesty, as always. Well done!

Heath

I appreciate Berto's balanced take on the idea of having a trans kid. I'd be so interested to hear you do an episode on detransitioning, which seems to be a trending topic lately. What can we learned from those who have detransitioned? Are there situations where people are pushed into trans surgeries? I would say so based on obviously the Twin Flames cult, which was an outlier, but also a YouTuber who reported on a teen girl in a trans support group who said she had nightmares at the idea of undergoing such surgeries and the group leader just brushing it off, discouraging any discussion that would lead away from "Yeah sis just go live yr best life it's nbd yay!" There is a certain cultlike way of thinking among some of the younger far-left people that as a lifelong progressive I just can't relate to or support. Is that what Elon refers to when he talks about the "woke mind virus?"

Colette

What about schizoid? A lot from your SPD deep dive matches a lot of Elon descriptions. Being bullied after inadvertently insulting other kids. Having no friends. Socializing online. Workaholism, locking himself in his office. Escapism fantasies. Nerding out on technical subjects. Maybe all that self-disclosure in interviews is not compatible with schizoid, but it is so awkward and inappropriate.

Vadim

I recently learned about the "paradox of tolerance." This kinda explains the Alex Jones stuff perfectly and would be a great dive topic on the psychology of society in general.

Jamie Tigges

Menendez brothers deep dive!

Tyler Knight

Hell yes! Adhd too

Sara

This calls for a deepdive on Autism

Wandering Soul

You read my mind with the Luke and Darth Vader analogy! Since the beginning I’ve been thinking that Elon is giving Anakin

Marzia

I saw an article the other day that said Elon had paid like 50 million for anti-trans (political) "commercials" 🤢 I also hear people speculating about him changing the algorithms on twitter to favour Trump and minimizing Harris-content
