Joe Bogan posted:It's this. Basically the entirety of modern economic """"""science"""""" is based on the idea that everyone is a piece of poo poo out to get you, an idea developed by someone who was literally, medically, delusional and paranoid, whose mental health issues made him believe everyone was a piece of poo poo out to get him. That's nonsense.

Freakonomics may legitimately be one of the most psychically poisonous works of the 21st century, it's made so many people who ought to know better think economics has any value.

I don't want to get into it and this is solely my own position but I think Adam Curtis's work is really very good, and its conclusions, connections, and predictions, also quite good. Hypernormalization called the 2016 election, unfortunately.

Milo and POTUS posted:The nice year page Flint_Paper posted:Tom sits with his head in his hands, ears still ringing from the blast. He did it. He won. Strange, though. He always thought he'd feel pride. Joy. Elation. He always thought that he'd feel something. Standing on unsteady legs he heads to the kitchen to get the mop. He'd need to do something about the new hole in the wall, but that can come later. Cleaning, first. Got to get things clean.
