About this episode

Osher Günsberg explores the complexities of human behavior regarding love for animals and the tendency to criticize others in the context of online interactions.

So, do you really love Animals? Or do you really love to hate people? It's a question sparked from a recent experience I had on social media after posting a clip from my interview with comedian Daniel Sloss . And let's just say some of the comments really surprised me. In this episode, I'm delving into human behaviour, especially in the age of online outrage, and whether we are truly driven by our values, or by the emotional payoff of being 'right'? Plus a look at why supposedly 'progressive' movements sometimes push away their own supporters.
