Interview with Gurwinder Bhogal about his Twitter thread exploring human nature, cognitive biases, mental models, status games, crowd behaviour and social media. Discusses how saying ridiculous things can be a test of loyalty, why people can be too stupid to know that they’re stupid, why million-to-one odds happen 8 times a day in New York City, why The Bullshit Principle is actually a thing, why everyone is seeing racism everywhere, and more.
