From his Wikipedia page: Jason Edward Hickel is an anthropologist and professor at the Autonomous University of Barcelona. Hickel’s research and writing focuses on economic anthropology and development, and is particularly opposed to capitalism, neocolonialism, as well as economic growth as a measure of human development.
What Hickel says at left is undoubtedly true. What makes this interesting is that human civilization is now threatened with extinction, specifically because of his claim, i.e., that our society is willing to ignore science when capital is at stake.
How far is humankind willing to go before it puts science in charge of policymaking when it comes to staving off catastrophe? Nobody knows.

In general, we reject racism, ignorance, corruption, and environmental destruction.
I can’t swear that the content of the meme here is accurate; in fact, most affluent Scandinavians I run across admit that they pay higher taxes than Americans.
They claim that the attraction is that they aren’t forced to live among uneducated slobs where people are dying of treatable diseases with masses of impoverished people living on the streets.
Isn’t there something to be said for that?

Apparently, there are people who believe kids should be raised by dishonest imbeciles.
