Gabor Mate on Zionism, January 1988 (38 years ago)

This 1994 article is the first instance I can find of Gabor Mate clearly supporting/describing the (highly controversial) idea that "unintegrated" traumatic memories can be unconsciously stored and later "emerge into awareness" in the right/safe conditions. Is anyone aware of anything earlier?

AI is a 'social prosthetic' www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-...

the words reveal/access are important here - this is example of normalisation of the idea that psychedelics can/should help recover repressed memories "psychedelic-assisted therapy can frequently evoke emotionally intense and existential experiences, revealing vulnerabilities, traumas..."

Transpersonal psychology is the religion of neoliberalism

I’m confident Joe Rogan can and will swing on Doblin also — I think he already knows the vibes are off

Carney was referencing Valclav Havel, former Czech president. Havel believed in the pseudoscientific idea that people can access and heal from memories of all humanity across all time through Grofs' Holotropic Breathwork. He gave Stan a lifetime achievement award in 2008 substack.com/@kgreenstien...

A therapy cannot be "ethical" if it is based on the idea that psychedelics help to recover/unearth/bring up "repressed" memories

Today, we remember the fourteen young women whose lives were stolen at Polytechnique Montréal 36 years ago. Their names are a solemn reminder of the devastating toll of gender-based violence — and the responsibility that comes with our remembrance.

Cocaine and coca leaf should be completely legal in the same way as caffeine and coffee beans are. If this was the case, snorting cocaine would be about as popular as snorting caffeine is today. Prohibition itself causes and worsens all the problems it claims to be solving.

Let go and surrender.

America does not have capital punishment for selling or smuggling drugs and none of these people were arrested or tried. There could have been mountains of cocaine in open view on the deck of the boats and it still would have been murder of unarmed civilians.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

MAPS produced a bro-informed therapy manual and called it trauma-informed

The first federal investigation into Border Patrol corruption and “excessive violence” was launched in 1930; by 1933, the government had fired every single working agent. Fast forward to today, and the agency's sexualized workplace leads to harassment and assault, according to former agents.
