        Choosing Gen AI is such a bad choice for this article. To me it screams “low effort, ad-filled sensationalist news site that barely counts as one”.

    It’s interesting that the murder rate can drop to less than half of what it was thirty years ago without us knowing exactly why. (There are theories, of course, and this blog post has links to them.)

      Everyone’s addicted to staring at screens. Less crime happens when people are hypnotized by their screens.

      Are you a fucking troll? Everything I am finding says that he is explicitly against race realists like Curtis Yarvin. Edit: And he is jewish too? Yeah you are 100% a troll.
