Liberty is the combination of freedom and responsibility. Alone, freedom allows people to harm each other for their own gain. Only when you join freedom to right action do you produce a just society. Without justice, freedom is worthless. To understand that you are not alone is the first step on the path.

Is The West Heading Towards Social Breakdown? | Aaron Bastani Meets Peter Turchin
History is not just one thing after another. Historians spend lifetimes figuring out how X event in medieval France impacted Y event in 20th century Polynesia - but none of these historians have truly 'done the math' like this week's guest.
Coming from a background in applied mathematics, Peter Turchin has gathered an unprecedented amount of historical data which he believes gives him a better chance than most of predicting how societies slide into grave crises. He's been proven right too, in the early 2010s, he predicted that 2020 would see a global rise in instability.
