Scarcity is Delusional - How agriculture infected humanity and destroyed freedom

<p>In this long-form podcast/journal I talk about some practical ideas for blockchain/NFT/crypto technology (ie for scientific rigor and communication) and then go deep into the delusion of scarcity. My research into hunter-gather cultures is uncovering the reality that for most of human history, humanity was *not* 'greedy', 'violent', 'selfish' or suffering from inequity.&nbsp;</p> <p>These pre-historic cultures in fact lived a life that we all are trying to get back to as we figure out how to solve inequality, xenophobia, disease, productivity, sustainability, loneliness, lack of purpose, etc... &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>So I must ask... if these cultures got so much right... how can we learn from them? And how did we go so wrong? &nbsp;</p> <p>--</p> <p>Here is some of the research I am basing this on:&nbsp;</p> <p>https://medcraveonline.com/JHAAS/persistent-controversies-about-the-neolithic-revolution.html&nbsp;</p> <p>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1040618206000334&nbsp;</p> <p>https://www.sapiens.org/culture/hunter-gatherer-inequality-namibia/&nbsp;</p> <p>https://rewild.com/in-depth/leisure.html&nbsp;</p> <p>https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/freedom-learn/201105/how-hunter-gatherers-maintained-their-egalitarian-ways&nbsp;</p> <p>https://hraf.yale.edu/ehc/summaries/hunter-gatherers&nbsp;</p> <p>https://www.jstor.org/stable/4602911?seq=1&nbsp;</p> <p>https://phys.org/news/2021-03-ancient-maya-houses-wealth-inequality.html&nbsp;</p> <p>https://journals.uair.arizona.edu/index.php/arizanthro/article/download/21455/21025&nbsp;</p> <p>https://www.reddit.com/r/science/comments/mdm93e/a_new_study_on_the_gutbrain_axis_found_that_lower/?utm_medium=android_app&amp;utm_source=share&nbsp;</p> <p>https://grow.acorns.com/how-taking-more-breaks-at-work-can-make-you-more-productive/ &nbsp;</p> <p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_D3ODZfNq0w&amp;feature=youtu.be</p>
