Good political lessons here:

If you want to understand politics, make a serious study of history, not news. News doesn't educate you, it just hijacks your attention.

It is crazy to me that many humans on Earth still live so primitively. This is how humans lived 100,000 years ago! We don't need to speculate about how humans lived, we don't need to ready history books, they still live that way today!

Try to imagine the worldview of such a primitive people. It is completely different from the Western worldview. I don't mean better or worse here, I mean radically different. That difference should leave you in epistemic shock. These people do not live in a scientific world, not because they are stupid, but because the scientific world is imaginary. The entire Western worldview is a local invention, but it is not registered by Westerners as such. Westerners think their worldview is just physical reality.

An eye-opening look at the cultures of the Eurasian steppe. I feel like these cultures are neglected and unknown to most Westerners.

I listen to this one a lot in the background. Great for sleep, contemplation, meditation, yoga, tripping, and work.
