Yes there is a U.S. literacy crisis, but the class divide of the future will NOT be literacy. It will be possession of capital. The oligarchs are locking in a hierarchy that will ensure that the rich will have power no matter how stupid they are, and the poor will be powerless no matter how clever.

Dehydration kills millions of people every year. Access to clean, potable water is a human right.

Inequality kills.

Y2K was a clerical error. Ai is a civilizational threat.

Dugin’s “4th political theory,” that supposedly transcends liberalism, communism, and fascism, idealizes the culturally & ethnically homogeneous nation state as an organic & mystical unit destined to extirpate enemies within and without and achieve geopolitical apotheosis. In other words, fascism.

It's bizarre to me how Americans take utterly for granted near-instant access to abundant, pure, clean water. This seems perfectly natural to many of them. But for the majority of human history, and for hundreds of millions of people today, it is like living a fantasy.

Im confident in saying that Anthony Bourdain would have HATED everything about this.
