"Like the raging denialist in the White House, the cantankerous anarchocommunalist has quit the game after the final score left him short."
This is such a bitter note. I would have paid the 1000, but Kelly was very predatory. He set up a gotcha interview and then a surprise bet on some pretty wild claims from both sides.
In any case, the world has clearly gotten worse and more unpredictable, so the spirit of the bet favours Sale, but because he lost to a technicality, now he's being compared to trump??
- rendall 6y ago> the world has clearly gotten worse and more unpredictable By what measure? Crime? Child mortality? Global poverty? Death by warfare?
- A12-B 6y agoBy Sale's measures, and since the time of Sale's prediction. I don't care for comparing this year to the past 400 years on issues like poverty, etc, people only do that because it makes them feel better so they can continue on ignoring problems. Equality and environment are clearly on a downward trajectory.
