episode 24 - Lies We Have Been Told Our Whole Lives
The easy ones:
Eating sugar will make you hyperactive.
Gum lasts in your stomach for 7 years.
Don’t swim for an hour after eating.
Cracking your knuckles will give you arthritis.
Crossing your eyes for too long can make them stay that way.
Being too close to the TV can damage your eyes.
Don’t ever wake up sleepwalkers.
You must wait 24 hours before reporting a missing person.
You can see the great wall of China from space.
Napoleon was not short, but average height for the time, 5’7”.
Bulls are not enraged at the color red.
Vaccines don’t cause autism. The only study that ever linked the two was shown to have faulty data and the lead scientist fudged the results.
LIE: HR is there for the protection of the workers.
Truth: HR will always do what is in the best interest of the company.
LIE: Work hard, keep your head down and you too will live the American Dream, be rich & famous.
LIE b: If you ain’t busy, you’re lazy.
LIE c: Time is Money
Truth: There is so much luck in finding the opportunity to make it big. Hard work alone does not equate to wealth.
Just because you are enjoying life and not working, there is value there.
Your time is only a perceived value.
LIE: No pain no gain.
Truth: In reference to work and sacrificing long hours at work, grinding, paying dues, pushing yourself in school, remember, pain is absolutely not necessary to achieve your goals. The pain, and suffering, is optional.
LIE: Emotions are bad.
Truth: At the end of the day, all of our feelings are innate and neither good nor bad. We only judge them as so.
LIE: Politicians care about the plight of everyday people.
Truth: Politicians (especially at the national level) care about getting re-elected and tow the party line.
LIE: That government wants what’s best for us.
Truth: Government really doesn’t have a collective goal and that We The People are all just cogs in a massive, poorly communicating bureaucracy and we’re complacent with them just trying to keep the lights on.
LIE: Being religious makes you a good person.
LIE: Diamonds are valuable.
Truth: Diamond propaganda was created by De Beers in the 1940’s, “Diamonds are Forever”. De Beers Group now sells approximately 29.5% of the world's rough diamond production.
LIE: Farmers control food prices.
Truth: Prices are up because companies use inflation as a cover for price gouging.
LIE: The food pyramid we learned in school is good for you.
Truth: A more balanced diet should be followed. The food pyramid followed can lead to diabetes.
LIE: Pharmaceutical companies are just trying to help people.
Truth: Big Pharma is in it for the profits, otherwise they’d be free. Remember Oxy.
LIE: Studies say so, so it must be true!
Truth: Don’t believe anything you read, watch, hear, etc. Remember if it doesn’t feel right, it’s probably not.
LIE: That mental illness isn’t real and isn’t a disability.
Truth: Mental illness needs to be recognized and treated just like any other malady.
LIE: Corporate News always tells the truth.
End on something positive:
Something good we want to share with the world. A quote, a saying, etc.
