Radlibs is an online term for this among sort of dirtbag lefties. Radical liberals like the status quo but wrap themselves in radical bullshit. Seligman's program that doesn't mean that fixing implicit attitudes would in any way actually cause behavioral change, he says. The structural stuff is so screamingly obviouslike intergenerational cycles of poverty where people are cut off from any sort of opportunity and that takes money and redistribution to address.
Journalist, podcaster, and rapper Jesse Singal joins us to talk about his new book The Quick Fix, positive psychology (scam?), cancel culture in the media and academia (overblown?), Substack incentives, and lots more. Plus David and Tamler argue about the epistemology of ghosts.
