Gabor Mate, renowned physician, author, and speaker talks to filmmaker David Malone to the metaphor he uses to describe toxic culture, as is woven throughout his new book the Myth of Normal - Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture. Gabor’s ability to simply and directly connect dots that are invisible to the average mind is always fascinating to me.
I fucking love this guy.

Gabor is an amazingly insightful human. His own story of healing from early childhood (even pre natal!) trauma in his 70s on Ayahuasca journeys brought me to literal tears 🥹
His energy is fascinating. I don't find many of the things he says intellectually overly sophisticated, rather very reasonable and simple. It's not the case for instance with JBP or Tolle. Matè conveys a pacific aura, I wonder what's the dark side of that.
Fantastic book and welcome to nostr 🤙
