I don't know much about Peterson beyond clips that pop in my feeds, but he appears to be someone who's familiar with world history and the history of thought, and that applies some kind of intellectual rigor in making…
It shouldn't be a surprise that there's no more trust. And blaming it on one "side" makes no sense because in Chomsky's view power has only one side, not two. Chomsky and other critical theorists and marxists pointed…
This ties in with the Art Nouveau movement which he was a part of. If you look at paintings and other architecture from the time period, there are lots of references to nature and "organic" shapes.
It's interesting to me that a country that loves consumerism so much doesn't have a pro-consumer movement. It looks like Ralph Nader led one for a while back in the '70s but it's long dead now. If someone were to revive…
During the days of slavery, the Dems were the party pushing to maintain the status quo and the existing power structure. The Republicans were those fighting to change it. Coming out of the civil rights movement, it was…
Sounds like you want a super liquid asset that's not actually an asset because it doesn't appreciate, and also it needs to be really easy to buy, cheaply. That's unlikely to happen and what we have right now is probably…
I think San Francisco has something like this with their Below Market Rate (BMR) housing program. You have to be below a certain income to be considered, and basically you get to pay a fixed monthly rate to "own" a…
I think a big component of China's imperialist strategy is to de-infustrialize the world, much like what's happened to the US.
I'm pretty sure most of the robots and drones are manufacturered in China though. Even if they weren't, a lot of critical components for building things come from there now.
In the past, people were able to buy a small piece of land and develop it themselves. Literally build the house themselves. Over a long period time if necessary to spread out the cost. They also built 2-4 family homes…
Latin America is probably the region to look at since it's more developed than Africa but less so than the US and Europe, and has developed dramatically in recent decades. One or two generations ago people still had…
Existing big-city police forces already have the resources to stop crime in their respective cities. They just choose not to do it. If you want to see how capable they are of stopping crimes that are of interest to…
I have a question on the topic of 1600s history. Do historians see this as a period of global stagnation or isolation or anything like that? It seems like most of the world's major powers were either stagnating or…
Strangely, there's a ton of vacant commercial real estate in my neighborhood that the corporate landlords don't seem to be in any rush to rent out.
I agree with everything that you said but it's a "better the devil you know" type of situation. The vibe that many people have in the US is that things are constantly in flux and that we have less and less control over…
The moralizing aspect comes in when we admit that we all made Florence (and Rome and Venice) the way they are, and that this is the inevitable end of any tourist destination. Therefore an alternative is needed, that…
I think you kind of missed his point. The current era of tourism does to foreign cities what gentrification did to working class neighborhoods. At first, people want a taste of something different and authentic. But…
Nope, just two ignorant groups who have hijacked the entire country.

Wouldn't it be more profitable to solve the issue? Wouldn't it be more profitable to exaggerate the issue so you can milk it? Stonewalling against saving the planet seems like the least profitable course of action,…
Lawmakers aren't informed enough to figure out a plan. Experts are needed to do that. Scientists and industry work together all the time to enact sea changes in the world around us. The AI revolution is a recent…
That's a goal more so than a plan.
Before that there was Kyoto. I get that the US is braindead and can't make things happen. But what about all the other countries?
Politicians don't come up with plans either. Even with the best intentions, they don't know enough to be able to come up with a plan. Experts need to do that. You also don't need the government if you want to enact…
The fact that there are so many countries should mean that at least one of them should have solved the issue by now, no? Meaning, there should be some country that has near zero greenhouse gas emissions. Have they?
