Such a boring statement. Millions of people voted for Brexit and Trump, most of them are not stupid.
I beg to differ.

No. We beat the super evils.
I beg to differ.
If you want to leave the european union you are stupid? Lol.
Fair enough if you don't like Pinker because of these allegations. I have to point out that he favours higher taxation for the rich in the US just like Europe in his book. He bashes the right as well as he bashes the left. Keeping Pinker aside, what about Hans Rosling? He wrote Factfulness, which was of the same theme, when he was dying of cancer and he is already dead. What's he going to gain out of it?I haven't read the book and am not interested in doing so. I have however read many critiques of Pinker by people who understand this stuff a lot better than I do.
I'm not equipped to argue it in detail. I have no understanding of economics and don't pretend to (money astrology imo, and seemingly as accurate from my limited grasp of it). If you found it convincing then fair enough. I don't trust anything he says given the circles he freqents (man has bee pictured with Jeffery Epstein multiple times).
And remember, he is paid well by those who benefit the most from the current system to come up with conclusions saying the system is working.
Vinai. When ?
Dysney it is then.
Nah.....Just one of the village idiots....
TBF Petr Chech is just trying to let them let people through. Doubt he agrees with the league.That line from Cech is straight from the authoritarian playbook btw. In theory protest is acceptable but any actual protest is 'not the right way'.
I'm not aware of Rosling. Will look into him though.Fair enough if you don't like Pinker because of these allegations.

I still remember when I was a child in the 90's everyone was afraid that with the population growing at that rate, there would be hunger and starvation all around because we will have more mouths to feed. We managed to increase the percentage of people we managed to feed in spite of the absolute number of people increasing. These are achievements that free market democracies deserve credit for. I can very well see the developments I have seen with my own eyes, being captured well in both Pinker's and Rosling's books.
