So if we dream about us all being equal economically, we may be dreaming about ecological disaster. 

and is working far less now and it's going to continue to sputter into the future. 

Very often what he's saying is, "You come to me with a framework and that framework is poisoned." 

Nassim could take that longer than normal people, which is why he had an audience and following.

but it is tolerated as a natural part of the industry. 

And I think what we're seeing is, this isn't probably the best way of funding our future. 

Racism is implicit in the Black Lives Matter and I can't stand hearing the anti-whiteness. 

I do believe in structural oppression but this is not the way you fight it. 

Some of them are poorly trained, some are well trained. Some of them are great and some are horrible

I'm up for re-factoring the criminal justice system but this idea of tear it all down? 

This is just an anti-intellectual movement. 

The idea of monopoly in violence by the State is an innovation. 

A non-monopoly on violence will look like warring factions. That is not good. 

They are getting off their authoritarian tendencies. Same thing with the issue of trans pronouns. 

I am  fine with alteration but this idea of choosing your own pronouns, and "They?"  

That is just childish and stupid. It's dumb.

It's an incredibly technical world and we have child-like conversations. 

So what does adulthood mean to you? 

It means that you recognize the level of resolution necessary to take on a problem. 

How it requires many resources, a degree of tradeoffs, a level of granularity, and so on. 

But maybe that person votes for Trump because he believes we need a wrecking ball. 

Aspiring to equality is incredibly dangerous. I say that even as I have concerns about inequalities

You wouldn't want to live in an equal society, you will be miserable.
