The Purpose of Disgust & Contempt

[@annebomba]

This was great. I have been extremely ideologically biased and driven in an effort to subconsciously escape from my feelings of disgust and now have become disgusting myself, I disgust myself lol. Well at least it allows me to feel the disgust instead of projecting it into the world.

Thanks for saying that, I appreciate it. Glad it could help!

This was very helpful and exactly what I was missing. I’ve been doing some self healing and diving deep into my belief system. I always wondered why disgust was part of the basic emotions because I had a limited understanding. Thanks for clarifying

Hey, my pleasure! Thank you for the kind words!

This was extremely helpful for me. Very eye opening and easy to understand. I appreciate the visuals.

Glad I found this video. Im learning how much my Avoidant Attachment Style has really kept me in dark regarding my emotions. Unawareness of negative emotions until contempt arises is more common than I thought. So again, Im glad I found this channel on emotional functioning to help learn awareness about my emotional states.

I saw someone who had this combination of these facial expression last week. It kind of rattled me - I was surprised to see it.

Amazing insight. Personally, I hold tight to my beliefs without showing contempts to others. I believe that each person, personal opinions and believes are a small part of the bigger picture, therefore, they cannot contradict, only add up to the truth. sorry about grammar, I’m blind. Don’t you dare try to label me!

[@jakewiskerchen9536]

I believe that you can be passionate about your beliefs while also being nonattached to them, such that you can change your mind if the information changes. And I'd never label you! kzbin.info/www/bejne/moS7gYKnh7SIiqs

Contempt is not a fight response. Contempt is a status signal, used to scare low-life, free-riders away form the 'rich' group.

Have you seen the book, "A Hunter Gatherers Guide to the 21st Century"? (Weinstein) You have alot of interesting ideas too.
