Interesting, I think I'll take a look. You sorta skipper over what 'normie' or reddit behaviour was mentioned in his book specifically. Was it the lack of reading scientific articles you mentioned in another paragraph, that alone can't be it right?

Listen, just go and read the thing; it will be time better spent than listening to me precis it from memory. but if you do read it a feel like it hasn't given you an insight into what drives a whole host of behaviour that one sees on social media or that I've misunderstood the book then do come back to me and I will refresh my memory of the book to have that discussion with you.

Yeah, that's fair enough, gotta do my own homework some of the time.
