Dan Fagan Show 7/20/2021 (audio below). ‘Woke’ analysis starts at 20:25:
Dan explains why ‘woke’ is popular among leftists because it’s how many people are now getting their self worth, through virtue signaling, believing they’re championing for the woke causes. Leftism gives people a sense of purpose, even if what they’re championing is often not virtuous.
“Most leftists appoint themselves savior of mankind, crusaders for the oppressed. Typically, people who are left don’t believe in the existence of God. So there’s an emptiness there in their lives, and they have to fill it, and that’s how they fill it, by appointing themselves savior. And they come up with these crazy policies to destroy the lives of those who make good decisions, and to enable the lives of those who make bad decisions.”
Antidepressants are like a chemical lobotomy. Ann Blake-Tracy told me that in order to suppress depression feelings, antidepressants have to suppress all feelings. Many related links are posted below.
*NOTE: Peterson lives in high latitude Canada. Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is caused by low vitamin D and lack of full spectrum lighting, especially the lack of the blue spectrum, which blue blockers can make worse. It is easily cured by taking enough vitamin D3 (5,000-10,000 iu of a good brand), which blood tests can check (60-80 ng/ml is ideal) and full spectrum light bulbs. Low vitamin D should be a well known cause for depression.
31:40 PETERSON: “There’s a very long history of depression in my family, and so I used antidepressants for 20 years after I started suffering from depression, especially in the winter, so it was seasonal affective disorder*. It got to the point where it was debilitating. It hit my father as well, and hit my daughter and a number of first cousins, and aunts and uncles. It’s thoroughly populated on my father’s side.
But I stopped taking antidepressants 5 years ago when I changed my diet because I was also suffering from autoimmune disorders of various sorts. …
I also used an anti-anxiety medication after a particularly severe immunological reaction, I think to something I ate…. And then I suffered from complications that were extremely severe when I tried to stop using the anti-anxiety drug. So that propelled me into a terrible, terrible situation. I developed a condition called akathisia, which makes it impossible for you to ever relax, ever. It’s like being prodded by knives, like many knives. … The case reports indicate that people are driven to suicide ideation within an hour of akathisia onset. … I’m in pain pretty much all of the time. It’s quite severe.”
“We want to help you embrace personal power the only way that’s socially acceptable today by victimizing yourself.”
“Feeling significant because you made yourself into a victim is a lot easier than feeling significant because you did something significant.”
“…the more victim you are the more significant you feel, which makes you feel more powerful.”
“To victimize yourself, find someone else to blame for how you make yourself feel. … Everything about you and your life is their fault.”
“The more pain you have the more significant you feel.”
“Victimize yourself even further by canceling them. … Canceling a whole group is even better. Ruin their lives because your life already feels ruined. Hate them and hurt them because you hurt inside.”
“As you cancel them, now is the time to virtue signal. Do this by accusing them of being something horrible. This will set up a manipulative, psychological trick where you plant yourself to be the opposite of that horrible something, which is always something virtuous.”
“And don’t worry, it doesn’t matter if they’re not racist. This isn’t about them. It’s about you. And you’re about hurting others for your gain of a heightened degree of significance.”
“Always remember to virtue signal. That way, people won’t see what you’re really doing: abusing others to position yourself as the victim.”
“And we can’t do it alone. We need to ban together with other people who victimize themselves. Form a group to cancel people. Form a culture. Call it ‘cancel culture’ if you want.”
The worse a person feels the more justified they feel when they attack someone else: “That’s why we’re here to help you be better at making yourself feel worse so you can feel better about yourself when you attack someone else.”
“The world needs less self-responsibility and more safe space for people to be un-self-responsible.”
“Some people ask: ‘shows like ‘Saturday Night Live’ used to be funny? How come they’re not anymore?’ Because Hollywood’s comedy isn’t based on truth anymore. It’s based on controlling the narrative. An agenda of control squeezes the truth right out. And if you don’t have truth, you don’t have actual comedy.”
“Exposure to true information does not matter anymore. … The facts tell nothing to him. … He will refuse to believe it until he receives a kick in his fat bottom.”
Catholic deception:

45:01 “…fall on your face in front of Our Lady.” Idolatry

24:“Berlin in the 1920s was essentially San Francisco.” And after WWII, they did not turn back to God. The intellectuals were looking for something new, figuring the old brought them only destruction and misery. – Marek Chodakiewicz
Jerry Mungadze tells some of his experiences where he was discriminated against, and how he handled it. Then says:
10:10 “To my people, the biggest thing I have to say is: we cannot hang onto the pain of discrimination and slavery forever, because if we do, we get stuck, because it’s not going to hurt them. They’re not going to lose sleep over it. It’s us who carry that bitterness to where you suspect every white person to look down on you when they really don’t.”
14:10 “In our community as black people, we can’t keep saying ‘white people, you need to change; you need to change the way you treat us. We have to change ourselves. Because we do have our racist thoughts too, and we have to overcome those.”
2:10 “I do look for short periods of time at all of the TV channels just to see what all the propaganda is all about, and I’ve noticed one thing: if there’s a station that leans towards conservative — which there are probably about three now in that category — that I think the personnel seem much friendlier, and present themselves better, and they’re not antagonistic. The more progressive you get, the more liberal you get, I’ve noticed they very rarely smile. I think it’s not just something I’m making up. I think the left, the progressives who are so up tight about telling everybody how to do, since it’s an impossible task, they’re very unhappy people.
And then I got to thinking about it. That was sort of the way it was in the Congress, that people were miserable when they take it upon themselves they’re going to save the world, and ‘all we have to do is to get the people to listen,’ and they get very frustrated because ‘they’re not listening to us. If they listened to us everything would be so much better.'”
8:05 “I definitely think that people who depend on others or who want to be somebody else’s boss are less happy. That’s one of the good things about thinking about independence, self-reliance, getting the satisfaction of taking care of oneself….”
“Are you just someone who goes through life and wants to be as popular as can be, and you’ll say whatever you have to say to make sure that you’re liked by the most people? It’s very tempting to be wanted to be liked.”
Jesus:
“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.” Matthew 5:11-12
“You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end, the same will be saved.” – Mark 13:13
“Blessed are you when men shall hate you, and when they shall exclude and mock you, and throw out your name as evil, for the Son of Man’s sake. Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven, for their fathers did the same thing to the prophets.” – Luke 6:22-23
Makeup has been around for many centuries. When you look at the scientific evidence, it’s no wonder that over $40 billion dollars is spent on cosmetics each year. We are drawn to makeup because that it taps into our primal urge to find a young, healthy mate who will produce lots of kids so that we can pass on our genes. What is – The Truth About Makeup?
“When you look at the fear of death, this is where the power of doctors comes from. … When we lose this fear of death, so many other fears disappear. … If we are going to go on thinking ‘I must do anything to stay alive,’ then we’re just going to hand our power to anybody we think will help us achieve that.”
“Masks make you faceless.”
“..dismantling the psychological stability of the human race.”
From Part 3:
“The cause of human control throughout history is human acquiescence of the many to the few.”
My loose transcription, starting a 8 minutes into the video:
I know people personally who do whatever they can to avoid looking into a mirror, not wanting to face themselves, and they start to become the very things they supposedly stand against.
I think this is why people spend so much time going outside of themselves, instead of dealing with things that are going on inside.
People’s experiences differ greatly so they see the same things differently.
13:00 There’s this reality divide that’s happening and becoming increasingly obvious.
People dress themselves up in labels, take sides, and then fight and hate online, which furthers the divide.
Many now assume a person is a certain way and then argue with their assumption about that person.
Many have done complete 180s in this last year, standing now for what they recently spoke out against. Many are now applauding authoritarianism, making appeal-to-authority arguments, which relies on faith in authority figures instead of facts.
The golden rule is being thrown out of the window as people try to force their authoritarian rules and policies on others, calling people names who don’t go along.
“Love of money” driven psychiatrists don’t care enough to learn the truth about the nutrients their patients are low in, sadly — prescribing $drugs only.
Exceptionally wise and pertinent words to overcome during these deceptive last days!
NOTES I TRANSCRIBED:
“The deception in these last days is overwhelming.”
“The enemy’s … primary weapon is subtle deception. He comes at us with carefully crafted arguments that stir up our emotions, and he often mixes in a little truth into the lies he promotes, causing us to question our God-given instinct. He comes back again and again until we are offended and angry. He knows that an offended person has compromised judgment.”
“The media has become the most powerful vehicle of lies, evil and confusion of our time. … And if you disagree with them you become ridiculed, hated, slandered.”
“We must stop and question the information being planted in our hearts and minds. We must each investigate the other side of the story.”
Romans 16:18 “By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.” BSB
The Bible says numerous times “take heed that no one deceives you.”
“If we are moved by feelings and feed on lies how are we to discern the truth” as the delusion increases with more serious birth pain events?
We should ask ourselves in humility: • Have I been siding with evil? • Do I really want to know the truth? • Am I offended? • Has my heart been hardened? • Has my love gone cold?
“Anything else should be questioned. This [lays his hand on the Bible] is God’s truth.”
Study Finds 68% of Children Report Side Effects from Wearing Masks (Germany)
The results the first German study on children and teenagers wearing mouth and nose coverings reveal 68% complain of wearing a mask. Researchers at the university of Witten Herdecke had set up the first registry to report effects of wearing a mask in children. 363 doctors were invited to report their findings and ask parents and teachers to register side effects of masks. They were surprised by the elevated number of reports, as they found complaints affecting 25,930 children were entered in less than 6 days.
Most common issues were
Irritability (60%)
Headaches (53%)
Difficulties concentrating (50%)
Sadness (49%)
Reluctance to attend school (44%)
Malaise (42%)
Impaired learning (38%)
Fatigue and drowsiness (37%)
Other physical symptoms included rashes and allergies around the mouth, syncope (20%)nausea (16, 6%), hyperventilation (12%) fainting spells (2,2%)
In addition 25% of the children had developed anxieties. Asked what they were thinking about the measures, 41% of the parents estimated they should be milder and 31,6% estimated they were inappropriate.
A German study involving over 25,000 children reveals that major negative impacts on the physical, psychological, and behavioral health of children may be far more widespread than reported in the media and by government officials — affecting approximately 68% and contributing to 24 distinct health complaints, according to parent submitted observations.

2020 IN REVIEW: THE BIG PICTURE
[…]
How did this false pandemic happen?
Let me assure you this phony pandemic didn’t destroy our liberty overnight. Its conditions were set decades ago when we allowed the lure of free public education to capture America’s children and systematically indoctrinate them in social justice, political correctness, evolution, and false promises of what government power can do to create equality and a more “just world,” without freedom and judgment.
Antidepressants are the most commonly prescribed class of medication other than antibiotics, taken by more than 1 in 10 Americans (and 1 in 4 among women aged 50 to 64).1
Many assume that such pills are the best available treatment for symptoms of depression, but in fact the difference between antidepressants and placebo pills is very small — and both are ineffective for most depressed patients.2
In a meta-analysis published in PLOS Medicine, only the most severely depressed showed any response to antidepressants at all and that response was quite minimal.3 This lack of effectiveness must be taken into consideration along with the drugs’ side effects — of which there are many.
