I just discovered the Conspirituality podcast with the pen letter to Aubrey Marcus. I found it fab and thorough. When it comes to the man it was written for, I suspect it will be water off a narcissistic duck's back...

To a degree what you produce can be "moral outrage porn"

For me in some ways it isn't, because I have some skin in the game as a teacher of an obscure Chinese martial art I work in this field. I've also been caught up in cultlike situations and seen the fallout in myself and others.

You have done a great job here of defining what I find instinctively repellent about Wellness/lifestyle porn. Thank you.

One of the saddest things about all this is that the wellness pornographers often have some good stuff to offer, but wrap it up in unethical bullshit.

Well thought out back to the land environmentally informed stuff is great, but then it turns into blood and soil eco-fascism...

I recommend you look up Tyson Yunkaporta and have yarn with him - sharp mind and deflating sense of humour (the other others podcast).
