[@AgendaInMind]

It's happening just as I said it would...the healing phase of being "scared to death " is pneumonia. So as people are released from the solitary confinement of their homes (because of media and government lies based on the fraudulent Germ Theory), and people begin to get happy and feel less stressed, the result will be the healing phase....of pneumonia. Then the "experts" will panic and close everything down again because they have no clue what causes illnesses, and martial law will take effect. The fear campaign has caused ALL the illnesses, not a Boogey Virus. The Germ Theory has been a lie for 100 years. Thanks public schooling. Every disease is based on the Germ Theory, which was the theory of ONE man over 100 years ago. It was never proven to be 100% valid. In order for a theory to be valid, it must be reproduceable in each and every person 100% of the time. If you cannot "catch" cancer, arthritis or diabetes from another person, then you cannot "catch" a cold or flu. There is no such thing that only SOME diseases are communicable, but not all. It's either all or none of them...they are all based on the same Germ Theory. What the media and government is doing to people is criminal. Western Medicine is based on fraud.

[@iamski]

It's not game son, it's called being real. When you're 100% truly yourself, people are attracted to that because there's no misconstruing or hidden motives to that individual and it's dreadfully lacking in this country as a whole. So naturally, Whitney is attracted to that because she's probably used to dealing thousands of fake pricks on a daily basis, which should be no surprise, look where she lives... It's no Scooby Doo mystery or secret sauce to this, because as individuals such as yourself view the world as simplistic as a game, Lex is above that childish notion and engages reality with an hoest lens which is refreshing to see. For me personally, I'd rather deal with an open racist because at least I know who he is and he won't sugar coat his bigotry to me, vs dealing with that duplicitous individual with the condescending attitude and fake platitudes to only talk shit behind my back. That I do not tolerate, nor should anyone.

[@BB-ty6iy]

@@CrossfireDude123 I think she is flirting with him. She’s overcompensating. She also said she wanted someone who is smarter than her, she respects, blah blah. All things she also complimented him for- women are aware and wouldn’t do this if not interested. He likes her but i think she’ll be too overbearing in the long term. Shame.

[@CrossfireDude123]

@@BB-ty6iy She's for sure flirting but it's only to tease Lex which in turn validates her appearance and self-esteem. A women can flirt but one can't assume it's always for reasons such as expressing a romantic interest in the guy. We know the relationship between Whitney and Lex is platonic because she's said before that she only dates physically capable men, who are taller, which she has confirmed in a prior video to be a deal breaker for her. Therefore, without these prerequisite, there can be no romantic interest since there is no physical attraction from her to him. As physically fit as Lex is with his karate and training, he fails to meet her requirements for attraction. Sadly, this sort of flirting happens in these friendly relationships quite often for the purpose of boosting the women's ego, and perhaps, to have some lighthearted fun, sometimes at the detriment of leading the guy on. I'm not saying all women do this, but some women will flirt to fish for compliments and validation, especially when it's men who are more reticent because it's easier to get a reaction from them. BUT it's also important to mention that this, however works both ways, as the guys do the same thing to women who they hold no romantic interest in to boost their own ego. These girls are typically the type to give reactions in the same way reticent guys get embarrassed easily.

[@Traveler42069]

"I wish Cardi B would advocate people being a stripper whilst they're getting their PHD." That shit was spot on.

[@Cepheid_]

As a fellow introvert who didn't get any attention early in my life, I can say there is hope. I never got any attention most of my life, and my self confidence was very low, but I noticed as I started improving myself, girls and guys started taking interest in me, whether it be romantic or just being friends. I will say though, from a man's perspective, guys are noticing you but for every confident guy that approaches you there are 10 less confident guys who are thinking about approaching you but think they have no chance.

Whitney, chaotic. Lex, gold. 😅

[@nthny1875]

This was oddly the best conversation I've heard in a long time. People who can relate to either of these two individuals could learn so much about general intelligence of the opposite life. These two have ZERO in common, except for the desire to learn. And beautiful conversation comes from diversity.. And I think they legit fell in love during this interaction, and neither one is aware of it.

[@the_notorious_bas]

I think they appreciate each other, but both are smart enough to realize that dating makes no sense.

[@nthny1875]

@@the_notorious_bas okay Lex.

[@anesthetized7053]

these two make such an interesting duo, i love the way they make eachother a little uncomfortable and try to explain things in a way that fits the context. they clearly are very different people and i like the dialogue that comes as a result of that.

[@drunkwizard]

I really like the person whitney became while fridman was on... It feels like he elevated her thinking

"Hating yourself is really good for productivity, the problem is life is short and it ends, and you never get to enjoy it." If that isn't what I needed to hear right at this moment. Thank you for this.

You can acknowledge that our parents didn’t have the tools to be good people and also be disappointed that they didn’t have an internal desire to try. Let the man feel how he feels about his father.

[@andreakae4211]

I had to finally skip that whole convo because Whitney couldn’t stop projecting and diminishing his perfectly valid experience

[@wd5739]

Yeah that part was hard to watch. The whole saying she wished she forgave her father earlier and then criticizing his feelings of mistreatment from _his_ father was one of the clearest forms of projection I've ever seen. She was basically telling him he can't have any *valid* reasons to be upset with his dad and shut down any response he gave her.

The least talented people feeling the most confident, that phenomenon is called The Dunning-Kruger Effect.

[@IvelLeCog]

Names for psychological phenomena always get me. Like until the 20th century there was this perceptible phenomenon that nobody really talked about until the term was coined by experts like millennia later down the line.

[@SmithCommaBenjamin]

Not actually. The Dunning-Kruger effect is about knowledge of subject matter. Confidence and knowledge aren't the same. You can know you don't know a lot about everything, but have the confidence to do something and be okay anyway.

[@SelectiveStreets]

@@SmithCommaBenjamin No. It is the perception of being so confident in what is coming out of your mouth that it exudes confidence naturally.

[@miker7795]

@@SelectiveStreets The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people wrongly overestimate their knowledge or ability in a specific area. This tends to occur because a lack of self-awareness prevents them from accurately assessing their own skills.

Hi Whitney, how are you? I wanted to tell you that I feel very identified with what you said about your father and the process of forgiving and understanding that beyond the mistakes they make many times they did the best they could with what they had. My dad died two weeks ago after 5 months very ill and every word you said about your father hit me very hard in a positive way. I know you probably will not read this and it will be lost in the thousands of comments on this tremendous podcast, but I just wanted to thank you, not only for what you say in this episode but for all the episodes, listening to you helps me distract me and many times like this to think, want to improve and understand many things. So just thank you. Kisses from Argentina.
