For me it was the Evergreen incident with Brett Weinstein.
Roving gangs of students literally trying hunt down and kill a professor, holding the school president hostage, and a litany of other criminal acts, were subjected to zero consequences.
Yeah that was WILD! I saw some videos of that.
I really like their podcast (Brett Weinstein and Heather Heyig), the Dark Horse. They're a little long-winded, but they have some really interesting topics come up.
Just recently they had a whole episode on dry fasting. Apparently they both did a 3 (or was it 7 day?) dry fast recently. And Heather Heyig had a chronic pain condition clear up, that's she'd had for about 8 years. Very interesting. I didn't even know that a dry fast of that length was possible.

Yeah, I have a colleague who does a seven day dry fast every year. I had the same reaction.
After looking into it, I think you can dry fast as long as you have body fat to burn.

I had absolutely NO IDEA that fat in the body can turn to water. "Metabolic water". Hadn't heard anything about it at all.

That's how camels survive the desert. They store fat in their humps and could go dry a month or so.
