YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

On this, our 312th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss the fact that the centre cannot hold. More Epstein files were released, which included an email from our friend and former mentor, Robert Trivers. We discuss his contributions, his life, and what the email does and does not imply. Also in the Epstein files: pizza, torture, Bitcoin, and the “goyim.” Was it all about blackmail; if not, what? And what is the CEO of TikTok on about, with regard to hate speech? Finally: a silver lining in the madness, as gender clinics close down and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (finally) takes the position that “gender-affirming” surgeries should not be done to people before the age of 19.
