Love this. The train metaphor for civilization is spot-on. Especially in America in 2023, where we’re all incredibly privileged regardless of sex or race, we seem to have found a way to ruin our own success. It’s quite illogical and amazing, the way we’ve managed to find new problems where problems don’t actually exist. Ideology and tribalism die hard. I write about this often.

And yes, we need more like him.

This filled and moved me. Grateful. ✌🏼💜

I love Bowden. Got introduced to his writing back in college. RIP.
