(From Dr. John) Fun with ChatGPT. I asked ChatGPT: If you were the devil and wanted to make an entire nation sick, what would you do?
Oof, that's a juicy one. Okay, playing devil’s advocate—literally—if I were the Devil and wanted to make a whole nation sick (physically, mentally, spiritually), here's how I might go about it:
Corrupt the Food Supply:
Make ultra-processed, nutrient-dead food cheap, addictive, and everywhere.
Subsidize sugar, corn syrup, and seed oils, not vegetables.
Market junk to kids early, so it becomes comfort food for life.
Destroy Sleep and Rest:
Glorify hustle culture and demonize rest.
Add screens everywhere, especially before bed.
Keep people chronically sleep-deprived and wired.
Promote Isolation and Disconnection:
Replace real relationships with digital likes.
Make community seem optional, or even burdensome.
Encourage division, suspicion, and tribalism.
Push Sedentary Lifestyles:
Design cities for cars, not people.
Make movement optional and inconvenient.
Normalize desk jobs, streaming marathons, and phone addiction.
Hijack Mental Health:
Turn self-worth into a comparison game.
Tie identity to consumption and social status.
Make people feel not enough, and then sell them temporary fixes.
Break the Family & Undermine Tradition:
Make parenting seem impossible or uncool.
Undermine trust between generations.
Encourage the idea that old wisdom is irrelevant.
Encourage Moral Numbness:
Blur the line between right and wrong.
Normalize vice as freedom.
Replace purpose with pleasure.
Drown Out Silence:
Fill every moment with noise, distraction, and stimulation.
Keep people too busy or numb to reflect, pray, or heal.
Basically, make health feel weird, truth feel relative, and dysfunction feel normal. That’d do the trick.
