CIA Spy: Give me 20 minutes and I'll delete your fear of failure

What was said

"I used to believe that people could be equal, and fundamentally now I know that people will never be equal because equality is not really the thing that we're after. What we're secretly after that we don't want to admit to is we're always after being better, having more, being in a better position than everyone else."

The former CIA operative made the controversial claim that true equality is impossible because humans inherently seek advantage over others while publicly claiming to want equality. He accused politicians advocating for equality of deliberately lying to maintain conflict and control over the population, representing a fundamental shift from his earlier beliefs.
