Episode 3 - Conspiracy Theories as a mental health issue
Should we be studying the inner workings of the minds of those who don't seem to know what know what evidence is and therefore reject it?
My summary of the issue is this: by all means question - that's healthy, however, replacing reality with another version of reality is unhealthy.
Not understanding reality creates a negative impact for all of us, it affects our collective ability to solve problems if we are not understanding of, or, if we are in denial of the root cause of the problem.

With a strong background in analytical problem solving, she specializes in understanding the systemic factors contributing to the extinction crisis. In addition to her activism, Hapi leverages her talents as a singer/songwriter and musician to raise awareness of this crisis through 'protest pop' and one of her goals is to change the music industry so that music is not just about people.
She has a long-term vision of establishing an ecological empire, designed to serve as a benchmark for ethical business practices, something which is crucial to humanity and all life on earth seeing as nearly all businesses in the western world are unsustainable and therefore unethical.
