Episode notes

i think it is a very, very short term blinkerd perspective to think that the very, very recent changes in human culture are going to last forever. Cultures change, they intermix and we are clearly in a stage of human development right now where those changing and mixing are rapid and important. To somehow take some aspects of that and imagine that they're frozen in and will last forever just seems wrong to me. That seems very improbable probable to me. The rules are only one question. But again, thoalways been the rules. It's my podcast. Twhat can you do? You can't stop me a can non western civilization such as china ever embrace western democratic values?

Welcome to the July 2022 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). I take the large number of questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable size — based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good — and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic.

Big news this week! Mindscape is working with Bold.org to sponsor a college scholarship for students interested in studying the fundamental nature of reality. Listeners can find more details and donate here. Our immediate goal is to raise $10,000, and I will match the first $5,000, so this shouldn’t be too hard for us here. Hopefully we can raise much more! And hopefully this will help encourage someone who might not otherwise have been able to study this kind of topic.
