NYT Freak Out: SSRIs Mass Sterilizing the Left

In this episode, Simone and Malcolm Collins dive deep into the controversial topic of SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) and their impact on fertility, sexual development, and mental health—especially among left-leaning youth. Drawing from recent studies, personal anecdotes, and a New York Times feature, they explore how SSRIs may be contributing to declining birth rates, lasting sexual side effects, and shifting cultural attitudes toward relationships and intimacy.

The discussion covers:

The growing criticism and negative sentiment around SSRIs on social media

Case studies of individuals experiencing long-term sexual dysfunction after SSRI use

The lack of transparency from medical professionals about potential side effects, especially for teens

The intersection of mental health, political affiliation, and prescription trends

Broader societal factors, including endocrine disruptors and cultural shifts, that may be affecting fertility and sexuality

With a mix of research, humor, and candid conversation, Simone and Malcolm challenge mainstream narratives and encourage viewers to think critically about the medications we take and the cultural forces shaping our lives.
