108 The Problem with..."Anglicans and Florida Man"

from The Problem with Reading Hosted by The Problem with Reading

Sam, Brevin, and Stephen choose between Nietzsche and Aristotle in After Virtue chapter nine. The crew takes a deep dive into the mystery of Florida Man, read a Cosmopolitan article on Purity Culture, and discover that we are trees, you are trees, humans and society are trees, etc. Also AI will kill us all, but we knew that. On an unrelated note, imagine a country populated entirely with Ayn Rands and Nietzsches, and then imagine how many trains there would be.
