In this week’s episode, we discuss air quality in Los Angeles, and how California led the way in making catalytic converters standard in cars across the United States. Now, that regulatory apparatus is being used for less honorable ends, as legislators consider mandating the inclusion of folic acid in all tortilla products. We discuss pre- vs post-industrial diet, what mother’s milk is for, whether adult Americans are sleeping well, and how reductionism helped get us into this mess. Collectively, we have a complicated mindset, mapped on to a complex system. Then: the Pentagon funded an anti-vax campaign in the Philippines during Covid. At the same time that Americans who were hesitant about the Covid vax were demonized and targeted, the government was creating vaccine hesitancy in other parts of the world. The Cartesian crisis continues.

@DarkhorsePod Do you mind if I shove something under your noses? It's surprising to me in its connections to H&G: https://philpapers.org/rec/FISCAP-12.
I'm just a lowly undergrad, out of school for a while, but I think this is . . . closer than what I'm hearing from the rest of the academic world (which is just posturing and ignoring everywhere).
Bret mentioned the lack of emphasis on deportations of illegal Chinese immigrants. The number mentioned is small but it is evidence that ICE is starting to work on that issue. Hopefully, the number will increase.
