4/ To answer
@sonyasupposedly 's question below, I think that there has been an uptick in LEISURE because of societal wealth. More LARPing of every sort today than in 1950, more in 1950 than in 1890.https://twitter.com/sonyasupposedly/status/1156625694769549312 …ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs added,
🎀 sonya supposedly 🤖 @sonyasupposedlyolder people, has there been an uptick in "consult the ancestors" lifestyle engineering? (see Jay's second tweet for examples.) certainly feels like a trend in SV I wonder whether the boom in archaeogenetics research has had an influence, even indirectly

5/ I disagree with the first part - far too simple of a narrative. Cavaliers relocating to N America were lifestyle engineering the status quo back home / maybe 50 years earlier. Boers in S Africa weren't going back to 2000 BC, etc. Re second part:https://twitter.com/infiniturtle/status/1156629192865406976 …

finite turtle @infiniturtleReplying to @infiniturtle @sonyasupposedlyin the past, all the lifestyle engineering narratives were really deep — went all the way back to the beginning of time. we lost that when we tried to kill religion. now we are in the process of re-bundling and telling a very deep story once again, this time featuring Science3 replies 0 retweets 6 likesShow this thread -
Oh nononono. That whole "Cavaliers in America" thing is a 19th century construction.

Yeah, I've read that, and it doesn't hold up. But, the theory is so attractive that people seize on it to force order on what was chaos.

> doesn't hold up well, I've cited a book that cites original sources are you going to cite anything to argue the other side, or just say "it doesn't hold up" ? maybe you're right, but without any references, there's no reason I should believe you

This review points out some of the issues. http://www.ihr.org/jhr/v12/v12p114_Rosit.html … There are others. I think he got the Quaker stuff all wrong, because German immigration to Pennsylvania had a huge impact, as it did in the Midwest. Imma not even going to bring up Irish immigration
