Why are people so triggered? What's going on?

 I did a video on attachments and how attachments are a source of our suffering. (Buddhist concept.) I related it to investing and trading. (i.e. we are "attached" to the outcomes.)

People got pissed off. They unsubscribed or criticized me on talking about this.

Is this normal? I've been trading for over 40 years. Been a member and floor trader on 4 exchanges. Managed money for a major hedge fund. Ran a proprietary trading desk for a major international bank.

Economist by education. (Wharton, UCLA.)

Is talking about a non-Western philosophy so triggering to people? I don't fucking get it. I think we are ALL screwed up.
