Replying to Avatar Foxfire Mushrooms

I actually can not believe that he is even being genuine when he says that shit. He knows he is shilling bullshit and is getting paid for it. I kinda liked his book Sapiens tho haha

Haven't read or listened to Sapiens. But I heard he made a good case for the fact that human flourishing stems from our ability to continually increase and/or become more efficient with our energy usage.

But yeah, what he says in the video... I mean "as a historian" he should learn the history of money before spewing BS like this. I'll bet he gets some nice fat paychecks for that kind of stuff. Disgraceful.

I have Sapiens, and I read it some time ago.

From what I remember it's just an overview of a lot of history I already knew.

But it did remind me that we are quite primitive beings that have been thrust into a technological world, mostly due to massive climate change, suddenly coming out of the last ice age. I thought it's no wonder I feel happier when I'm outside in nature, acting like a hunter gatherer.
