i feel weirdly qualified to comment on this since i've been somewhat of a fan of eric since his first joe rogan interview so here goes: everytime i see an eric weinstein thread, i'm always surprised how many haters come out of the woodwork to shut him down (maybe he's deliberately being a controversial figure to growth-hack social media?), but anyway i generally like the guy At his worst, he can be a bit full of himself and paints a picture like the world is out to get him. then again he met Epstein face to face. But at his best he's a great conversationalist and intellectual on any and every subject. i enjoy his style, attitude, ideas, and perspective on math, music, and all things going on in the world. I think his early portal episodes + his original joe rogan interview are "peak eric". His mantra about "escaping the planet" and "transcending" really resonated with me. I think lately he's kind of lost touch with his original message. i respect him for "putting his money where his mouth is" and publishing his GU ideas -- even if they're wrong (it's all over my head) i think an academic-outsider putting out new ideas is cool and overall a good thing i'd like to see more of. i've stopped following him as closely since his portal episodes have dropped off, so i'm not sure what he's done to become mired in all this controversy and criticism. But generally it feels like people are judging him through opinion pieces rather than making a first-hand judgment for themselves .. and (ultimately) missing out on some really great content and interviews. go watch his original interview with joe rogan and some of his early portal episodes, i'd be surprised if it doesnt change your mind about him.

Very honest answer, for someone to show that much of what truley lies inside them, shows you have not been targeted YET by hateful peeps, not all areas of the phyce are bad, some people get off on others being happy Some get off on hurting others, to understand all this would take a lot of me explaining, it would go into many dimensions

  sure, people in general want to make their friends happy and hurt their enemies. that's just tribalism. or maybe you're referring to people who get off on hurting those weaker than them, that's just a power-trip. but you know hate is really just a type of pain, and i pity the truly hateful more than i fear being targeted

    emotions are like fingerprint's, its not likely that two people will have the same, if you ever meet someone who likes exactly what you like, all cozy like, then most probably their kissing your ass to manipulate you for something, but look into the fingerprint's, in whatever dimension, where the mani fold's lie, there are dead tone's , for example my dead area is hate so I have none, I can get angry but without the hate to fuel my indiscretions they don't have enough energy to arrive past a muon bus stop, some peeps dead areas are love, problem is that when making a judgement we have only one finger mark to measure it off against, which is relative and subjective, but everyone from Freud to Schopenhauer has imposed their subjective view as an objective one by using domination tactics and coke, they set it up to never be properly be argued against, and were unaware what harm they were doing, really to get to the nut of it all and get a good reach around to shove the wrench in the right direction, you would need someone someone who had a few different fingerprints, a different manifold on each digit, and obviously someone who understood that although monopoly might be the dominate game in town, it is by no means the best or most entertaining by a far mark, someone who understands not only that there are other games but and also understands the difference's between the rules and appreciates those nuance's
