Episode notes

i'm very much against whitewashing the bad aspects of our history. i think teaching how horrible we have treated the rest of the world is really, really important. The average american does tend to perceive itself as more sanguine about doing bad things to the other countries than they should.

Welcome to the March 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. Enjoy!
