America Addicted to Rage: Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott on the Kirk Assassination
This segment zooms in on the psychology behind America’s division. With insight from psychotherapist Shavaun Scott, the panel dissects how social media outrage, tribal thinking, and dopamine-driven rage responses have turned political discourse into psychological warfare. Tony Brueski and co-hosts explore why so many Americans are trapped in “us vs. them” narratives, and how misinformation fuels distorted perceptions that can escalate into violence. Shavaun draws on clinical experience and neuroscience to explain why people become addicted to anger — and how that cycle makes tragedies like the Charlie Kirk assassination feel inevitable.
