I dunno. While there's a lot of good "food for thought" in the main article, I found it to be a bit flawed. I'm not sure I can trust anything else in it.

I read the main article and the author failed to mention one very huge problem: world overpopulation. He/she also failed to acknowledge that Communist policies led to the tragedy that's occurring in Venezuela. These are glaring oversights.

I did some research. The author is John Ramey, based out of Boulder, CO. He's a bit of a lefty which explains why he's pushing certain left-wing dogma on that site.

If by "trust" you mean turn off your truth filter & critical thinking skills and just swallow what is said...

NEVER do that, no matter what/who you are reading or listening to.

Anyone can make an observation of fact and draw conclusions from fact. But there is frequently more than one way to connect dots. Just because I disagree with the way someone else connected the dots doesn't make the dots useless to me if I connect them differently.

At the very least Sun Tzu would say there's advantage to be found in understanding how an adversary thinks.
