Gabor Maté on Trauma, Authenticity, Censorship, and Israel/Palestine

Gabor Maté relates the most prominent themes of his work and recent book, "The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture" to the mass killings of Palestinians that has proceeded the October 7 Al Asqa Flood. In a conversation that ranges from the systemic successes of mass indoctrination and self-censorship to the childhood roots of these cultural pathologies, Maté delivers an enlightening and crucial look at the world today.
