"How dare young US jews place the mass killing of innocents above blind allegiance to a foreign government whose main policy goal is keeping its prime minister out of jail?"
Chris Menahan 🇺🇸@infolibnews
Fmr Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz laments to Jewish Federation that people are finding content from "Al Jazeera and Nick Fuentes" on social media and seeing videos of "the carnage in Gaza." Holocaust education has backfired in part as people see Palestinians as Jews' victims, she adds. "They think the lesson of the Holocaust is…you fight the big powerful people hurting the weak people." (The lesson they were supposed to get is that it gives Israel the right to commit genocide in perpetuity.)

I'll be debating free will at the @punchlinesf the next four nights. Come by, if you even have a choice.

@alex_here_now @atomstrauss @HamiltonMorris And in doing so, I think there is a very real possibility that people may either never explore these options out of fear, or their ( exploited) fears may negatively impact their experiences. Hence the need for more balanced, honest and rational narratives

How does the narrative around psychedelics—corporatization, commercialization, and “evil billionaires”—affect the people using them for healing?
@hamiltonmorris is my guest on the first episode of Obsessed with Adam Strauss, available now on all podcast platforms and YouTube.

@nub @HamiltonMorris Thanks. Yeah, we both tend towards getting a bit manically excited about things that engage us, which can lead to digressions.

@atomstrauss @HamiltonMorris I listened to this and I thought it was pretty good. Sometimes hamilton goes off on little rabbit holes and i thought you did a good job keeping him grounded.

@Drug_Researcher @HamiltonMorris Hey thanks Matthew. Yeah, these are really important questions that need to be grappled with in a nuanced way. Thanks for your part in inspiring us to explore this.

@atomstrauss has a cool new podcast on psychedelics. In this 1st episode he talks with @HamiltonMorris, who discusses my warning folks about derealization risk with psychedelics. Link to video in replies (around 36-45 min into video). It's an important conversation- how do we handle risks? Does warning about risk give ammunition to opponents of the field? Has enough simply been said about harms over the years? My take is to try to be nuanced- convey risk but also discuss benefits & ways to mitigate risk. Lots of discussion of other big picture issues in the psychedelic field, including the pervasiveness of virtue signaling, and the dangers of assuming nonprofits are good guys and for-profits are bad guys (no relation to ethics that I've seen). Check it out.

@mycopreneur Aww thanks bud! Your (karmic) check is in the mail 🍄
English

@alex_here_now @HamiltonMorris Yep, this is all addressed in the episode, give a listen!
English

@atomstrauss @HamiltonMorris What specifically is concerning about that?
Not unrelated… does your podcast with him touch on his employment with Compass, and does he mention whether that has any bearing on his pro-corporate point of view expressed here?
