YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn this clip from Left Reckoning, David Griscom and Matt Lech discuss the alarming rise of loneliness around the globe. Fewer people are forming relationships, and birth rates are declining, but this isn’t just a personal or cultural issue—it’s deeply tied to capitalism and the demands of modern work.
We explore how the pressures of capitalism not only prevent us from living fulfilling lives but actively assault human nature itself, leading to fewer connections, less reproduction, and a profound sense of isolation. What can we do to rebuild community and prioritize humanity over profit?
