Political scientists & data quants have been telling us this for half a decade.

Women have moved *radically* leftward, at a scale & speed with no modern precedent, while men have, on the whole, remained largely steady & unchanged.

And you can see it across the data: Image It’s not just the U.S. Image

1 out of every 22 black men in America will commit murder in their lifetime (vs. 1 in 425 white men).

An ongoing scandal over Indian remote workers scamming Western firms highlights a deeper clash: low-trust Indian scam culture vs high-trust Western norms. Here an Indian VC *in the West* literally does not understand why lying is wrong & needs to be told by commenters. Unreal. 🤯 Image Many things we take for granted in the West simply aren’t possible in a low-trust culture, where no one can be relied on, and everyone’s constantly looking over their shoulder, wondering how many different ways they could be taken advantage of this time by everyone else they come across.

High-trust culture is rare. It’s fragile. And those who import low-trust norms erode its foundations. They’re not worth the cost of having.
