The Challenges of Interpreting Their Book's Message
In this chapter, they discuss how their book didn't fully address the problems in society, as people seemed to misinterpret their central message. They touch on the topics of teaching young people the mental habits of anxious and depressed individuals, the rise of cancel culture, and the increasing trend of people losing their jobs for expressing opinions. They also mention the collaboration between students and administrators to target and cancel professors. The chapter ends with a lighthearted anecdote about finally meeting someone in person after working together for a long time.
