Steven Pinker makes a shocking prediction 

Please add what date this was recorded.

And people in the wealthiest countries are more unhappy than ever, despite prosperity.

Atheistism and a disrespect for nature is a real problem. Native peoples always maintained balance in nature. Now with factory farming and other horrors how nature is dealt with is horrific. It is inevitable that there will be a backlash as there is intelligence there, it is not dumb.

Reason is one half of an equation. Super rationality can be the equivalent of Frankenstein. Reason needs feeling to balance it. Feeling needs reason to balance it. It is best to follow the Middle Way advised by Religion, Philosophy and Psychology, negotiating a path between reason and feeling, not emphasizing one or the other.

The first warning to be suspicious of a celebrity academic is when the lionshare of their comments are about subjects outside of their research discipline.

This stupid chearpicking optimism is devoid of any usefulness.

Fire departments only put out a fire, you say, every other year? Wait! What? What area are you speaking about? That's not what I read. Source?

Are you included in the statement "Most people are completly ignorant"

Facts are not data. Pinker’s data are optimism-backed. Most people are completely ignorant that he lost the bet to Marin Rees for the prediction of COVID-19. (So what? The death rate is still smaller than a century ago!) The paradox is: US, with the most advanced medical technology, gets the trophy of the highest death toll in the pandemic! Pinker never touches on the data of Global warming, nor Mental Illness (that’s a shame for a psychologist.) However, those tragic facts could be transformed into GDP numbers, supporting his narrative of Perpetual Progress.

WEF / WHO - puppets 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
