Great example of how european wealth is largely held in the form of heritage built environments, rather than private disposable income.

20-year-olds keeping their options open: Prudent, reasonable, will probably act when they have enough info. 35-year-olds keeping their options open: Indecisive, timid, will probably amass generic assets for 40 years and then die without using them.
Jaywalkers are live players. They understand the principles underlying social scripts (look both ways for oncoming cars) and can act on them. Those who just obey traffic lights are dead players. They can get killed if they don't look both ways but just rely on accepted signals.
Most Americans have no idea how poor they are vs the average European.

Then, once you get there, you'll realize all these people are intellectually vapid and subject to the same herd-mentality status dynamics as everyone else, if not moreso, and will be forced to choose between "getting ahead" or boldly venturing into the wilderness on your own.

A friend points out I forgot to add that—as measures of well-being and quality of life—fertility rates between the U.S. and Europe have converged, while U.S. life expectancy is lower and suddenly collapsing.

All things considered, America and Europe are roughly equally as poor and backwards overall. Neither lives up to the hype, let alone the future they ought to be building. Check out my new article in @palladiummag! (Adapted from last week's highly popular/controversial thread.)

Marko argues that the "America vs. Europe" debate is a way for Americans to manufacture a new consensus that America is already economically great and therefore incumbent political and economic institutions do not need reform. It is a method of recuperating a defeated populism.
"Many Europeans, my wife included, will gripe incessantly about the alleged lack of public safety and order in Europe. Suffice it to say, she has not mentioned it a single time since visiting San Francisco—on paper, one of the richest cities in the richest country in the world."
Marko argues that crime and disorder in the U.S. are the most obvious way that America's public wealth is negated. It isn't wealth if you risk injury or death! Violent crime is a national phenomenon in America, but most of Europe, big cities too, is still "as safe as Dubai."
Leisure time is one of the most obviously desirable forms of wealth. Adjusting for hours worked, the numbers end up much more favorable to Europe, especially the powerhouses of Germany and France, not to mention 52 million Europeans in "small unrepresentative rich states."
America and Europe are equally poor. Higher wage and GDP figures for the U.S. are overblown and fail to capture America's dwindling public wealth. Europe is now on a trajectory to get poorer, but isn't there yet. Read the new article by @mmjukic here: palladiummag.com/2024/04/26/ame…
The way America works is federal government "artificial intelligence safety boards" end up with 20+ people including industry leaders and domain experts but then also the Governor of Maryland, the president of an oil company, and, for some reason, the CEO of Delta Air Lines.

When you are poor and afraid, it seems like obtaining safety and affluence would solve every problem. But once you have all that you just want to die on a mountain.
I’ve met people from nearly every university, and the University of Chicago are the only standouts. You really can get into the weeds with them in a way you can’t with Ivy grads. Was told by a friend that it’s campus culture. A gladiator school of sorts, but for ideas.

I used to be confused when I saw people seek powerful connections, but not convert that to power of their own. Later I realized they're *not* making a mistake. Wielding power is a bunch of work! Lots of people just want the trappings that come from social proximity to power.
People who think the answer is a progressive welfare state have to explain Norway (TFR 1.5) People who think the answer is conservative social policy have to explain Korea (TFR 0.8)
Many of the people who are concerned with falling birthrates aren't willing to consider the set policies that would address the problem -- aggressive tax breaks for families, free daycare, free education, free healthcare, and building more/denser housing to slash the price of…
Americans have largely forgotten the meaning of freedom. It means power to think, speak, act, and reproduce ("ourselves *and our posterity*" remember) for your own interests. It means not being a slave.
If you don't negotiate, and have no leverage, you get enslaved. Basic rule of life in society. Stop working for your own extermination, start refusing bad deals, and develop leverage.
Cross correlate the above data with flows of wealth and a picture emerges: you are a slave. You work your ass off your whole life and can't afford kids so that someone else can reproduce at your expense. But you can just stop. Reject the fake deal, anon.

“No arms. No legs. He has a wife and five mistresses. Five, Jerry! I can’t get five minutes with ONE! What does he have that i don’t have?” “Hair, for one thing.”
One of the losers in yesterday’s Tokyo by-election was Hirotada Ototake, a disabled rights activist who was born without any limbs, and in 2016 had a scandal where it was revealed he was cheating on his wife with five different women.
@mmjukic Some modern cities have a new kind of player: the zombie player. They jaywalk, but don’t look. They don’t rely on any signals at all. They trust reality will bend to their will, but take no further active part in their own survival. I’m excited for the next patch notes!
Most people are not looking to live around maximum biomass, maximum rainfall. On the spectrum from thick damp woods to total desert, the most desired environment is considerably closer to desert. Less bugs, humidity, rank weeds, and so forth.
The brain drain Christianity and American Protestantism in particular experienced over the last half century or so is nothing short of breathtaking
