  100 what? It can’t be percent unless literally everyone everywhere searched for it at once at the peak day.

    100% of maximum interest during selected time period.

    279

    Here’s the graph for “cat” vs “dog” over the last year. Interest in “cat” consistently falls below half the interest in “dog” (i.e. 1 in 3 people are cat people) and “dog” really only hit the 100% interest once.

      So relative to itself? One person could search for “Greg Bovino trapped in an unstoppable ass fucking machine stuck on high” and it would show 100%?

      Neat.

    Yeah, also searches don’t reflect an idea’s prevalence but it’s just a shitpost

  Rutger Bregman is a treasure.

  Not only for speaking out, like the time he told the billionaire crowd at Davos to just pay their taxes, but also for doing stuff like setting up a new movement for morality where he recruits intelligent people that are tied of working for greedy consultancy agencies or hedge funds to team up and create a new sense of morality.

      His books are really worth reading too.

      In Man Kind he shows that in general is best to assume people have good intentions, and generally not trying to do bad things.

      In moral ambition he shows the mechanisms work that corrupt people from this general good state of being and argues that a new moral framework is needed to fight that corruption, which is ruinous for the ordinary people who just want to live well.

      But aside from just sitting that down he actually tries and start a movement to create that change. Which, I think it’s quite special.
