    GP did the podcast “Good Hang” with Amy Poehler a little while back, and she seemed to be a very affable, cool person. Matter of fact, most of the comments were about how they couldn’t stand GP, but kind of changed their minds based on the podcast.
    I think she was able to purposely change (use her acting ability) to jive with Amy Poehler and it worked! People changed their minds at least for a little while….

    Paltrow is just like every other actor who doens't act anymore, they hawk trash, insurance, she's the worst, she's a plain old huckster, plain and simple…and she's super wealthy, such a disgrace.

    Wow, you guys spent 10+ minutes crapping on Goop and then start gushing over the same bullshit. Pretty confusing. I like you guys, but sometimes I have to wonder if you're just talking to talk.

    From the beginning of Goop and all of that ridiculousness it was clear she has ill intentions and only cares about $$$$$ Its really sad and disturbing that people feel the need to follow people like her.

    She makes me so angry with her nonsense. If it was just idiotic adults buying into this bullshit I wouldn't care, but these people they practice this rubbish on their children too. Adults can do what they want. As far as I'm concerned, you don't like science and medicine? Fine, suffer and die, I don't care. I've absolutely had it with the complete ascension of the stupidest people in America to positions of power and influence. I was talking to someone recently and I realized that the people I truly hate, and I do mean, hate the most, are stupid people. There's no reason for you to be alive in the US in 2026 and be this stupid, but now we're all under their thumbs. They're just everywhere. loud and wrong 24/7.

    That luxury line she has is the biggest ripoff I’ve ever seen in my life. People are fucking stupid and she’s kind of lackluster actually. She doesn’t know how to dress she’s not particularly pretty. She isn’t particularly interesting. I don’t find her particularly anything.

    Ms. Paltrow is an elitist who isn’t a very good actor
    (her Oscar win was a joke), so she decided to start up a business advising other elitists on how to waste their money.

    Does she even believe the crap she says? If she really believes it then she’s a delusional nut case. If it’s a grift and she’s completely aware of the falsity then she’s a con artist. Either way the people following her and throwing money in her direction need to wake up.

    Birth control medication is poisonous. Talking from experience. I do believe that birth control is not only a woman's responsibility, it is also the man's. And I feel we also need to educate men, if they won't be a present father or they just don't want kids, that is an option. We should also shed a positive light on men's birth control options.

    mind you it is ironic watching americans call out celebrity when at some point or another you will all support celebrities when they suit you for the sheer fact they are celebrities,it's the nature of american exceptionalism

    Gwyneth Genocide Paltrow cozying up to technofascists makes a lot of sense once you understand their common interests in anti-ageing, transhumanist, life extending medical tech. There's only so much Goop can do at the age Genocide Gwneth is.

    Yeah, and you can't just tack on the name of a pro "woowoo" ( wtf does that even mean if it's not a perjorative..?), book at the end to make it seem like there's some inherent balance to what you're saying when you've already shat all over the whole concept for most of the video.

    "Just because it's natural doesn't mean it's healthy".

    Well, yeah… I wouldn't recommend eating uranium.
    But the same goes for synthetic pharmaceuticals, does it not..?

    It's not safe and effective just because some company says it is.

    Rusted on, indoctrinated… Talking about "ridiculous theatre".

    From a devoted Trump hater… 🖕
    I hold you now in similar regard.

    "Western Medicine" can have racist tones to it, cause it infers that it's "western". A huge amount of medical knowledge and research comes from universities across Asia. India and China are overwhelmingly large contributors to medical research in "Western medicine". So it's really frustrating to hear people use phrasing that orientalises eastern medicine and gatekeeps the origins of the medical canon to the "west".

    There are also many studies going on with practices like acupuncture, you just go on a preprint, journal etc and they are there. The reason the studies are generally limited in scope is because they are cultural practices and researchers have to be both considerate and work within University guidelines that include affliations with universities across regions where those practices hold the most cultural relevance. It's not because researchers are dismissive of them as woowoo, they genuinely care about not insulting a culture by publishing papers that may or may not confirm effective outcomes for practices that are important to them.

    We really need to do better on this….

    I was going to say, you pretty much already answered your question, she's addicted to the prophets and the money. She's like the direct opposite of fucking Dolly Parton
