CEO of Sublime Behavior Marketing and Author of Habit: The 95% of Behavior Marketers Ignore. Working with clients to change customer & organizational behavior
@ericweinstein I've been working on a paper, The Truth is in Their Lies, covering much of your list. Starting with Covid Origin, then Steele Dossier, then Covid vaccines safe and effective, etc., each lie reveals the liar's goal and which communications networks they control.
I'm sitting outside at a Starbucks, and at one table, a group of high school students are engrossed in an assignment. I overhear them saying they must write a paper on a black leader's perspective on slavery. Curiosity gets the better of me, and I interject, "Who are you considering for your paper?"
Their unanimous response was, "We don't know yet."
I replied, "May I offer a suggestion?"
The mixture of apprehension and curiosity on their faces was striking—some possibly worried they'd encountered Ibhram X Kendi, while others were open to a fruitful discussion.
"I suggest reading Booker T. Washington's autobiography, 'Up From Slavery,'" I remarked.
I shared with them Washington's inspiring journey from slavery to self-education and, eventually, founding an institution for higher learning and advising presidents. They were visibly taken aback.
I told them that "Up From Slavery" should be mandatory reading for all high school students. I concluded by mentioning how Washington's narrative could dispel many of the prevalent 'woke' ideologies in their education system, especially given the assignment's timing just weeks before the school year ended.
As they left, they thanked me for the information and the conversation. Hopefully, we won't witness those students causing chaos on a college campus in the near future. #onestudentatatime

With this vile attack on Rushdie we must face facts. We either stand for free speech or we do not.
There is no “Hate Speech”. There is no blasphemy. There are no “punchable faces”.
We have *free speech* outside of a few technical adjustments.
Don’t like it? Then *YOU* exit.
I think I've had discussions w/enough Boomer-tier Trump supporters who believe the 2020 election was fraudulent to extract a general theory about their perspective. It is also the perspective of most of the people at the Capitol on 1/6, and probably even Trump himself. 1/x
I've long argued the customer loyalty is a myth, not because people will simply switch because of price, but because when they change how they get a job done they don't feel guilty about it. Blackberry users were loyal until the day the iPhone was announc…https://t.co/Yuw3AMCBJp
@ericweinstein@jack It all starts with assembling facts. Data. Accurate and unbiased. By shutting down anybody whose facts do not match the prevailing, government-approved narrative, these platforms guarantee we cannot get the correct answer.
New Year's Resolutions: Instead of setting goals as part of your resolutions, change habits. Once goals are met, you are likely to revert to the old behavior. Changing habits, even small ones, can change the course of your life and career. #newhabits
If you are serious about wanting to improve education, do not vote more money for the education establishment that has been dumbing down the schools for years. Vote for vouchers, tax credits, or anything else that will transfer decision-making power to parents.
