Nassim Taleb, Minority Rule, and Census LGBTQ Controversy
Nassim Taleb's book "Skin in the Game" is discussed, specifically the concept of "minority rule" where a small, uncompromising group dictates societal norms, such as kosher or halal food standards. This concept is applied to the outrage from GLAAD regarding the lack of LGBTQ-specific questions on the U.S. Census. The hosts argue that these groups fear a loss of resources if their specific demographics are not officially quantified.
