My recent discussion with
who hosts the Subversive Podcast. She’s impeccably prepared and I could tell she had read a lot of my work prior to talking. We had an excellent conversation. She has a 10/10 aura and I've never been segued so seamlessly through topics.Topics discussed:
My theory and application of Biofoundationalism and Moral Foundations Utility Theory: how you're always voting your temperament, moral genotypes create political phenotypes, and the environment dictates the expression of political phenotype dominance and the utility of moral foundations. Luxury conditions beget luxury beliefs, selling conservatism in a backdrop of comfort is like trying to grow sunflowers in the winter.
Several essays in my blog incorporate this framework, but my core series of Biofoundationalism essays aren’t published to Substack yet. You can read the Biofoundationalism and Moral Foundations Utility Theory series on Twitter here. I’ll publish them on the ol' ‘Stack soon; I’ll rewrite each essay prior to doing so.
