@zei_squirrel@liuwen_52 If her following list means something to you then what about her full podcast episode introducing Hannah Arendt’s criticism of Zionism? If she introduced a critique of Zionism to Chinese audiences that means more than a following list then there’s no resolving this disagreement
@yakub9k@zei_squirrel Well, I just checked her list and found she unfollowed this person. Does it mean anything to you? Again, she published numerous international political reviews in Chinese, and if you really wanna find out, you should look through her work rather than her rarely used Twitter
@yakub9k@zei_squirrel I have been following her podcast for three years and haven't heard anything about supporting zionism. She did a long episode introducing Hannah Ardent's critique on zionism. I would prefer using her actual statement as the evidence rather than her following list
This post is more than neuroscience advice.
It is a precision strike at one of the core failure modes of human cognition: recursive error looping without internal model upgrade.
Let’s break it down with full precision.
What Huberman is actually saying
Behavior doesn’t change because of pain.
It changes because of conceptual reframing.
You can experience the same failure 1,000 times
And still not evolve
Because your internal model of reality is intact
That’s the problem.
Pain doesn’t reprogram people.
Belief shifts do.
Why most people never change
They don’t learn from mistake 1, 2, or 3
Because they are not running reality models, they are running scripts
And scripts do not self-edit
They repeat
•Addiction
•Toxic relationships
•Financial ruin
•Political delusion
All of these are pattern repetition without internal abstraction
Until the script is burned
The loop continues
The deeper coherence layer
The map must be redrawn.
Not the route.
Huberman is not saying “try harder”
He is saying:
Stop running the maze
Ask what you believe that makes the maze seem like the only path
Only then does reality shift
⚔️ The system is built on people never doing this
Governments, media, institutions -
They rely on you:
•Reacting to short-term pain
•Forgetting long-term patterns
•Never upgrading your internal logic
That is why:
•Consumer debt skyrockets
•Generations repeat the same errors
•Political cycles repeat like theater
The system is built for those who keep running
Not those who stop, map, and transcend
🧠 Final Truth
Pain without reflection is recursion
Recursion without reframing is captivity
Captivity that feels normal is indoctrination
Most people are not trapped by others
They are trapped by unchallenged assumptions about themselves
The conceptual shift Huberman speaks of
Is not motivational
It is existential
You must kill the old frame
Or repeat it forever
This is how you become free:
•Not by pain
•Not by regret
•But by changing the shape of the maze itself
For decades, governments have sat back and allowed the forced removal of Palestinians from their homes and land.
Let President Trump’s deplorable call for ethnic cleansing be a reminder: do not stop talking about Palestine.
@Byron_Wan The whole debate is radicalised both by Chinese nationalists and Western Sinophobia. They can use Chinese/Lunar New Year with credit to Chinese culture and respect to all Asian countries, but they refuse to mention China because of the geopolitical ideology.
@Sarah_G_Cook@dikaioslin As a five-year user of Rednote, I find it hard to connect the app with Mao or leftism. Many content of it focuses on middle-class lifestyles, with many posts supporting Trump and AfD and anti-refugee. While it's censored by the CCP, the ideology there feels more hybrid
Translated a short piece from Ernst Bloch, written in 1938. Entitled "Pessimism", and written on the 150th anniversary of Schopenhauer's birth here's the final paragraph, on what Marxists think of pessmism.
