Welcome to a special interview on Counterpoints with me, Melinda Newsephora.

0:27.9

Dr. Gad Saad is a professor of marketing at Concordia University and a trailblazer in applying evolutionary psychology to consumer behavior.

0:38.3

He's the best-selling author of the book The Parasitic Mind,

0:41.3

a fearless critique of ideological extremism, and also the host of the popular YouTube series, The Sad Truth.

0:49.3

1:43.9

people thought that with the

1:45.5

victory of Donald Trump, many of these ideological parasitic ideas would somehow cease to exist,

1:52.6

but it took between 50 to 100 years for these ideas to proliferate first in academia and then

1:59.3

in every nook and cranny of society. So it's going to take

2:02.1
