We're WEIRD. Get over it.
(02-26-2021, 01:10 PM)pbrower2a Wrote: Opposites from the thesaurus suggest non-Western, under-educated, agrarian, poor, and un-democratic.

Afghanistan, Yemen or Somalia would be prime examples of a Natural society. They are both highly theocratic and nationalistic. Non-Western EIRD nations like Japan or South Korea also tend towards free market and lifestyle freedom, although they retain more collectivist values than America or the UK. So did Ancient Romans, though the process was reversed after the fall of the empire.

Not sure what's the causal link. Is this prosperity -> Weird culture as a Marxist would suggest, or Weird culture -> prosperity as neocons would?
