I reached out to him again. I wanted to see how Pinker was looking back over the year that was 2016 — if the election of Trump, and all the global violence that followed, had changed anything.
Lol wut? Where has Vox been the last 8 years?
Look at history and data, not headlines. The world continues to improve in just about every way. Extreme poverty, child mortality, illiteracy, and global inequality are at historic lows; vaccinations, basic education, including girls, and democracy are at all-time highs.
Very true but it didn’t just happen. Capitalism and the Pax Americana have been very beneficial for humanity. Two concepts that Democrats actively fight against.
Beware of headlines. And beware of statistics from advocacy organizations whose funding stream depends on stoking fear and outrage — I’ve learned that they can never be taken at face value.
Very subtle and subversive of Pinker to tell a fake news outlet to beware of fake news.
Oh god, Vox. Just another website pushing leftist garbage. I suppose you have to look now and again to find out what the enemy is thinking.
