Description

This is part 3 of our discussion on How to Think About Stuff. This week's topic is Social Pressure. Even when we know we're right, there's that piece of us that wants to fit in. Some of us will sometimes go against our own values to be accepted by people around us- friends, classmates, the online community, my followers...How do we hold on to our integrity when the pressure is on? What's Torah's angle on how to best resist social pressure?Links:The Asch Experiment in Conformityhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyDDyT1lDhAThe Stanley Milgram Shock Experimenthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nexpwnwonRcFollow us to join the conversation!https://shmoozing.nethttps://www.facebook.com/groups/5871772776273202https://twitter.com/moshezeldman

We live in times of unprecedented change and confusion – identity politics, war, loneliness, social division, the promise and the threat of artificial intelligence, woke culture…I believe that Judaism has answers.   But these answers need to be unpacked.SHMOOZING is more than a podcast. It’s a platform to create a community of thoughtful voices on important topics, from personal to social, from communal to global. Let’s explore how Torah can provoke us to deepen our understanding of the times we live in, confront the challenges we face, and bring some light into the world.
