Have you ever seen a zombie movie where the protagonists are going around biting the zombies?
No.
Of course not.
In all of these movies, the protagonists are like, we need to run and hide from them.
They're stupid and easily outsmarted or outwitted.
And yet the point is that in the mind... And I'm not suggesting life is a zombie movie.
I'm saying the way we perceive threats of quantity is we run and hide.
That's the relatable experience.
So...
I like that.
Unironically, that would work.
If you are a leftist rioter and you get arrested by ICE, they just jam the Neuralink into the back of your head by force.
And then all of a sudden, the leftist stands up and goes, suddenly, I understand it all.
Rothbard is in my mind.
Like, they're screaming and smashing things, and the cop's like, do it quick, and he hits the John Locke button, and the Antifa guy goes, I understand everything now.
I'm going to stop attacking people.
Supply and demand?
What?
I don't want to stress the system.
The invisible hand, it's got me.
