Understanding Abandonment Anxiety and Genetic Influences on Behavior | Edward Dutton

Is he the Jolly Heretic? I enjoy the 4 person round table discussions with him and Richard.

[@AdamCook138]

He certainly is the jolly heretic. 🎉

[@brightstar4321]

@@AdamCook138 - For all the derogatory comments made about women’s bodies over the months by The Jolly Heretic, he has an enormous belly. Is there a baby in there? What a porker!! 🤣🤣 Feel free to remove this brutal comment once read. Had to let my inner teenager point out the obvious hypocrisy and absurdity of his previously stated misogynistic rantings. I can see, however, that karma has already taken its toll on him.

⛳ Bluff, waffle, forced-confidence, extra-fluffy-humour, displays of being an 'expert', conflation of familial / behavioural and genetic influence, lots of condescending talk about biology, physiology, and brain function / regions (even though he can't pronounce them correctly), yet NO explanation or discussion of actual GENETIC studies or the POSITIVE CORRELATION of such studies between genes and narcissism! Twin Studies is always a red flag - it's flawed and unreliable, but it 'makes sense' and sounds good to people who don't know any better about medical research and statistics. Still no discussion of actual *genetic proof* aside from the spurious mention of ONE gene (with no context or mode of action explained at all). And yet he claims what he's waffled on about for 30 minutes is somehow PROOF that it's *at least 50%+ genetic* 😆. This is called Pseudoscience. Why do you promote it, Grannon? Classic case of someone trying to impose their field of 'expertise' on a subject where it simply doesn't fit in order for them and their field of expertise to appear relevant to it. That's not how science is supposed to work. He's making it sound like the genetic perspective 'fits', but it doesn't, and he has NO PROOF that it does. If it's genetic why do people who've been abused by narcissistic family members want to get away from their abusive family member soooo badly and vow never to be like them!? It doesn't need to be genetic in order for someone close to the abuser to be more likely to develop it (or a similar disorder) themselves. That's called LEARNED BEHAVIOR, or CONDITIONED behavioural trait. Facts. Grannon, you should know better than to showcase such misinformation. This guy reminds me of Boris Johnson. Utter and total bullshit. How embarrassing. And how obnoxiously offensive to abuse survivors! This guy either goes home knowing he's trying to pull the wool over peoples eyes or he eats his own wool for breakfast lunch and dinner. 🐑 The only correlation worth seeing in this 30 minute presentation is all the red flags ⛳ and ZERO evidence for genetic factors. So why do you promote him, Grannon?

Great lecture!!

Very interesting content....if looking at Genology and it's part in forming the personality plus environmental influence....and the idea of Ancestral karma I am considering they may be related.

[@fish3010]

17:50 Feels like being a combo of Kafka and Dostoyevsky when you put it like that, which considering the world today, doesn't feel that bad. Simply adapting to the enviroment as a narcisist with the consideration that the self might be wrong about the mad world and the self being mad instead. 26:00 Also, brain mass/volume doesn't equate to people being able to use less of the same emotional processing, as a comparison, having 2 computers using the same hardware, but one of them having disabled 25% of the hardware of FP calculation capacity doesn't translate to having 25% less compute power in a benchmark because of the software/drivers at play there, just like mind adapts to different scenarios and a CPU is getting binned from the same base component, less complex calculations in multitasking but way more powerful as raw power, even as I've explained, in case of compute ( as we're merely extremely efficient computers ) volume or "transistor density" doesn't mean it's better, there many things involved as IPC, overall cpu/brain architecture, training the said parts of the processing part and so many other things that don't simply translate linearly with volume/size etc. As you compare that means we all should have the same capacity for creativity or logic just because we have the same brain volume or activity in the specified regions, but that is not the case.

There is one very important thing twin studies don't control for: pregnancy. The way a mother is feeling during pregnancy must significantly affect the babies' personality traits. And that would be environmental, not genetic.

[@andreavanda5402]

Personally, I'm sure there is a genetic component to narcissism. I have known too many narcissists in my life, including in my family, to not come to that conclusion. May I suggest giving the speaker a microphone next time so he doesn't have to shout. His total voice was forced and therefore quite distracting.

[@ashton1952]

Trauma can pass down in the genes apparently, which may cause the tendency. Parents with the best of intentions can raise their children wrongly by protecting them too much from disappointment. Causes habits from a young age. Ultimately though, surely we have a choice.

[@AmanitaWoodrose]

God no dont give him a microphone 🤣

The biblical God IS a psychopath... and humans can't be more moral than the god they worship.

[@a.m.s.twoheart]

if you want to get real: understand that the divine is a concept created by humans, as are gods. and they came about probably due in part to a fear of abandonment. virtue vs vice may be YOUR journey, but thats a very christian thing to say. it's amazing how some folx dunno how to behave without their bibble to tell them

Giving the broad context of relationships and then speaking in absolutes is a bit daft Ed. Evolution is a theory, of which the macro has never been verified...as Darwin admitted to.

[@TheJollyHeretic]

No he didn't

[@theStickyWicket]

@TheJollyHeretic Yes he did.. "But I do not pretend that I should ever have suspected how poor was the record in the best preserved geological sections, had not the absence of innumerable transitional links between the species which lived at the commencement and close of each formation, pressed so hardly on my theory".

We are constantly bombarded with alternative facts in this multidimensional world. Emotions are how one recognizes, discerns and identifies truth. ✨

[@RoyalMetal9]

Emotions have no intelligence.

[@brightstar4321]

@@RoyalMetal9 - Yes, emotions have intelligence, often referred to as emotional intelligence (EI). Emotional intelligence involves the ability to recognize, understand, and manage your own emotions and to empathize with and influence the emotions of others. It is a crucial aspect of human interaction and decision-making. Emotional intelligence encompasses several key skills: 1. Self-awareness: Understanding your own emotions and their impact on your thoughts and actions. 2. Self-regulation: Managing emotions in a healthy way, controlling impulses, and adapting to changing circumstances. 3. Motivation: Using emotions to achieve goals and maintain focus, even in the face of setbacks. 4. Empathy: Recognizing and understanding the emotions of others, fostering deeper connections. 5. Social skills: Effectively navigating social situations, resolving conflicts, and building relationships. Research shows that emotional intelligence is just as important as cognitive intelligence (IQ) in achieving personal and professional success. It helps us make thoughtful decisions, build resilience, and maintain healthy relationships. Would you like to explore any aspect of emotional intelligence further?

[@brightstar4321]

@@RoyalMetal9 - ​​⁠ I agree; emotions don’t HAVE intelligence; they ARE intelligence. Emotions are a form and an expression of intelligence that guide our choices, our intentions, and our existence.

I wish this guy would stop being so misogynistic! I have had to deal with so many male covert narcissists its not funny. Where in the world does he get his statistics? I'd like to know how those studies are done on twins, (adopted out twins?) ???? How would you gather lifelong information on 2 separate individuals being raised by different parents? How would you get their DNA? That wouldn't have anything to do with MK Ultra now would it 🧐🤔
