#12 - Looking Down on Optimism

In this episode, I talk about Steven Pinker's critics attacking him and his new book showing how the world is getting better. I connect these critiques to a larger scale problem in society to help show the raw thought process that goes on where people assign compartments of "hate" and "like" to others and predetermine their attitude toward somebody based on what circles they tend to stay in.
