      I have an older cousin; his father (my uncle) died when he was still in college. As the only kid, he had to drop out to go home and feed the livestock. That's almost 40 years ago now. He was given all kinds of cr@p for having a bad attitude, but looking back, he was effectively "married off to his mother" at the ripe age of 21. The harder he worked, the more she spent. From what I understand, no one cared enough to pull him aside, and help him restructure the operation, or explain he was losing his youth and had other options, or get him to buy out the farm from his mother. He was her mule, and family just ridiculed any/all of his shortcomings.
      I, on the other hand, decided to learn from his experience, and went off to live my own life.
      The money isn't worth a heart full of bitterness.

I've made it to six figures with benefits and my quality of life has declined. I think especially the community and infrastructure around me that should be getting better but instead more miserable, drugged out than ever and roads buildings and small businesses deteriorating. I've chased a carrot of a small American dream that was never going to be there and it just feels hopeless anymore.

    This explains why my boomer boss when I was in my 20’s said, “get as much debt as possible, you don’t have to pay it back when you die.” Yeah, but my child will get nothing from me of value. Then my boomer parents died within 10 months of each other at 63 and 61 and they had left me the refuse of their lives to clean up at my cost (think a 20x8x6’ dumpster overfilled). Granted my mother, albeit rather late in her life, left me her house and a $10k life insurance policy to bury her. Selling her house allowed me a down payment on a house after negotiating and paying off her estate’s debt. This put my small family in a better state than most of my fellow Gen-Xers.

    In the mid 80s when I was a teen my generation was watching the baby boomer off shore the first of millions of jobs for the sake of growing their wealth. The greatest generation, their parents told them not to do it because it was destroy the economy for the generations to come. The boomers did it anyway because of their narcissistic sociopathic tendencies. As expected the economy is in the toilet. Boomers in their 70s are buying more homes than millennials and zoomers. That shouldn’t be happening. The birth rate is in the toilet. Boomers have the majority of wealth and could give zero cares about the damage they’ve done.

      Of course Boomers have the most wealth they are the largest generation living and are old (thus having the most time to accumulate wealth). GenX is too small, relatively. What has helped younger generations is the vast amount of personal finance educational material and the democratization of engaging with the markets. Anyone can learn to budget, save, invest and have access to tools and knowledge that Boomers could have only dreamed of. Millennials are catching up on the wealth front and the ones building cash positions to take advantage of the next recession will do very well for themselves.

Barely anything is made in America anymore. I really feel bad for the younger generation as their future has been sold by the previous generations. My youngest daughter doesn't even want to have children because she doesn't want to bring a child into the current societal climate and because everything is so expensive. Plus I might have been too honest with her and red pilled her. Sucks, because she is exactly the type of young person who should be having children. She's not on any meds, doesn't drink, or do drugs. Her and her boyfriend go to church with his grandparents and she's been with the same boy since they were freshman in hs. It's like the younger generation has very little hope for their future and I can see why they feel that way.

    This kid's analysis had sharpened a ton over the years. It really is impressive.
    The part he's missing is this: Unjustifiable, systemic inequality where wealth and influence is built through predation and dynastic fortunes. It's an economic, social, cultural, and tangible phenomenon. Civilizations rise. Until their ruling class inevitably insulates itself, justifies itself, perpetuates/replicates itself through technocracy and prestige, becoming increasingly malignant and entrenched over time. Conspicuous decadence in full view of their starving citizens, etc.
    Social contracts are a requirement of society. After the contract is proven to be false, society dissolves under the weight of contradictions.
    That destructive cycle has been ultimately restorative on a long enough timeline, historically.
    This time, the globe won't survive it. We live in a post scarcity reality but our biology doesn't know that. We're all genetically programmed to recognize a hostile environment and maladapt accordingly. Poverty signals scarcity to human genes. The natural biological resolution is self annihilation on an exponentially increasing scale. Antisocial, narcissistic, compulsive, violent, and nihilistic reactions will perpetuate generational trauma and population suppression.
    Until poverty/scarcity is no longer the expectation of your species.
    The wealthiest 10% of the globe are responsible for nearly all environmental degradation. 7 billion people will destroy themselves and it won't save the planet.

      @@andrescer That is not the problem. The plan is for the house to be mine eventually, but apparently the lawyer says its very complicated to will a house or put it in a trust if its not paid for yet. Its about 3 years from payoff. The reason they are in their 80s and its not paid off is because they kept refinancing it to pay for upkeep since they have no other income or assets. They were going to refinance again to install solar and do some other renovations but rather than let them I told them that would make things more difficult and it was better for me to pay for the renovations and put off expanding our solar array until the house is paid off. Otherwise they would owe on this place till they die and then I would be fighting the bank and the town for it. The other problem is that its only 1700sq feet on 3 acres. Its not really enough space for 4 adults and definitely not enough space for me to consider raising a family of my own. So I have to choose between caring for them and taking over the family house eventually, or trying to buy my own home to start a family and leave them and my disabled brother to their fate. Damned if I do and damned if I don't. By the time they are gone, my half sister who is 20 years older than me, retired (never really worked and has no credit) will probably be trying to move in too. Permanent impoverished old folks home here. Not a good place to potentially raise kids.

    One of the main problems with the economy is the people in government that control the decisions around it. This is why term and age limits are needed.
    Currently we have people in their 80's, making economic policies that will have a negative impact down the road that they will not have to deal with because they will be dead. This wasn't always the case.
    Most people don't realize that the founding fathers, such as Jefferson, Franklin and Washington were all very young. Most of them were in their twenties and thirties and George Washington was considered an old man at 44. Any policies they made they would have to live with the consequences of them due to their young age. This is no longer the case.
    This is why you must have age and term limits across all forms of office. Otherwise people are too easily corrupted and especially if they can make policies that they themselves will not have to answer for due to dying out from old age.

Oh, they were also doing a decent job of star mapping. But all of those things were still yet advancing in various places simultaneously, and the greatness of the sand people was really only recognizable as such because by comparison, their primary competition was severely depleted.

    30:33. On parents keeping their children in a perpetual state of infant-hood: have you heard of Bud and Temple Abernathy who at 9 and 5 rode horseback 1000 miles BY THEMSELVES from Oklahoma to Santa Fe New Mexico with their father’s blessing in 1909. Today the child protective agencies would take such independent children into custody. In fact parents who live in cities today are maligned for allowing their young teens to navigate the public transportation alone. When did most parents and society at large forget that the goal is to raise functioning ADULTS?

    Is it just me, or does his description of "mouse utopia" sound like a reflection of today's world?

  • @isaackellogg3493
    @isaackellogg3493 19 дней назад +24

    In addition to everyone else who tried to replicate Mouse Utopia failing to get Calhoun’s famous results, Calhoun himself was unable to replicate his most famous result on any of the other times he ran the experiment. It is literally 24 times of >not having population crash< vs one (1) single instance of population collapse that got published, which got him famous.
    So what did he do differently the one (1) time it actually worked? Well, he changed their diet from the other 24 times, and he picked mice from an already inbred, lab-hybridized strain already known for delicate constitutions. So the results of Mouse Utopia 25 could just as easily be attributed to malnutrition and/or inbreeding as to population rising above Dunbar’s Number.
    Other experimenters have tried many, many times to replicate Mouse Utopia 25, but the population never collapses, and certainly never into such meme groups as “the Beautiful Ones” or “the ones who kill those still trying to breed.” Females becoming more masculine and males more feminine is a result commonly found in populations that move to areas with high food supply and zero predators, such as bonobos vs chimpanzees.
    Since most of America’s and the West’s problems do not seem to stem from inbreeding, we might look at malnutrition as a cause. We did not evolve to consume high levels of non-fiber-associated fructose, and especially not to eat highly processed seed oils. Other societies who lack such additives to their diet do not seem to have had our problems, though the ergot hypothesis for the Salem Witch Trials might be an isolated analogue.
    Long story short, while Mouse Utopia may explain by analogy certain characteristics of our current civilization, given the irreproducibility of Calhoun’s results, in my opinion far too much stew has been made from this single, very questionable bean. It may be that future historians will see us as just as mad as the general population for blaming our civilization’s collapse on urbanization and population growth, when the true answer is so obvious to them, and should surely have been just as obvious to us.

Before that, he blithely spoke about how Mouse Utopia had been run dozens of times by Calhoun, always with the same result, and that everyone else who tried it also got the same results, which derives ultimately from a single, unsourced but oft-repeated line in a 1977 article in a non-scientific magazine.
      His modification of his previous views, however slight, definitely counts as a shoutout (thank you Rudyard, I appreciate it!) but unfortunately he has welded his wagon too tightly to this particular star (and as he pointed out, there does not seem to be any other way of explaining the peculiarities of our culture than this alleged “standard” experiment) to change his official thinking so abruptly.
      I hope that in future, he will eventually work out his own conclusion with fear and trembling, and find his current beliefs just as cringe as he now finds his own beliefs from four or five years ago, when he was *21.

He goes on tangents because he knows that all the variables matter and wants to make sure everyone is on the same page in regards to them so that the point can be made. My brain works in a similar way so it is fun to see someone else wrestling with how to transcribe a 3d thought into a streamlined concept. I would say this is probably why his scripted and textwall filled videos display his points better than the long form style does, but he has definitely gotten better at it after a couple months on the pod cast circuit.

      I come from a country where it is common for girls ages 12 and up to go to nightclubs and conduct coitus with men between 35-60 usually resulting in a unwanted baby thus, their first abortion. They subscribe even more to the tenets of feminism and misandrism than western women as eastern europe was a place where men were and still are easily disposable due to conquests and high inequality of mortality rates between men and women even in peacetime. In the past a woman could have had 7 different husbands and been "loyal" to all of them.
      How do you expect me to find an "unopened can" of vagoo in these circumstances?
