I saw a news report not long ago with the headline:<\/p>\n
\u201c#MeToo backlash: More male managers avoid mentoring women or meeting alone with them\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Under the photo accompanying the headline it said:<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter more men say HR personnel have advised them to avoid being alone with women at work, \u201cI really think we are facing a very serious crisis for women in getting promoted,\u201d Sheryl Sandberg says.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
My response to people like Sheryl Sandberg is simply:<\/p>\n
No shyt, Sherlock.<\/p>\n
What did she and her ilk think was going to happen?<\/p>\n
A lot of people used to ridicule, mock, even get angry with the late preacher Billy Graham for never meeting with a woman alone without his wife present. Same with former Vice President Mike Pence.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t even like Pence and find him to be a total putz.<\/p>\n
But he was wise to have that exact same rule even as the media shrieked at him over it.<\/p>\n
More:<\/p>\n
The last 25 years have been one endless string of having to ride out the time between bouts of propaganda & the masses of normies who need to be told how to think catching on. Everything from the 9\/11 war grift… to banking & mortgage schemes… to #Metoo slanders… to masks\/jabs… to crypto\/NFTs… to a four year run of war & big pharma propaganda never seen before in the history of the US… and, most recently, the so-called AI corporate Narrative that has created a ponzi scheme so ingrained in the economy now it’s almost single handedly propping the stock market up on its wobbling, pipe cleaner thick legs.<\/p>\n
The cycle of these events seems to get shorter with each, at least.<\/p>\n
And so in a year or two it’ll almost certainly be something else.<\/p>\n
I’m rooting for it to be UFOs..<\/p>\n
Whatever the case:<\/p>\n
It helps to train your brain to reject anything you see your social media friends buy into by “default.”<\/p>\n
I won\u2019t say they are always wrong, or that the crowd is always wrong. That whole “even a broken clock is right twice per day” trope is true. But it is wrong a helluva lot more than it is right. And the media is always, without a doubt, either lying or misleading\/misdirecting something.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t think anyone in the media is even capable of reporting without bias at this point.<\/p>\n
If they were, they\u2019d die in ratings because the proletariat now demands to be entertained and distracted via a constant, 24\/7 state of being in an endlessly alternating adrenaline\/dopamine loop.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t even make fun of it or mock it whole cloth.<\/p>\n
One of my most valuable email teachings essentially trains businesses how to do that with email each day. I just don\u2019t teach doing it via lies and deceit like the media does. They way I teach it creates sales, happier customers, and helps close such loops.<\/p>\n
Will not explain.<\/p>\n
As far as detecting and rejecting bull shyt narratives goes:<\/p>\n
I like to think my paid Email Players newsletter helps with that.<\/p>\n
