Adam Curry introduces the humorous term "non-practicing white" to describe his stance on identity politics. He recounts a 2012 dinner party in Austin where a professor accused him of white privilege. Curry argues that the term provides a way to opt out of racialized social conversations and critiques the performative nature of modern academic discourse.

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/492-pet-food-stamps/chapter/systemically-important-financial-institutions-economic-collapse.md

A discussion with artist and former tech executive Lori Frick touches on the inevitability of an economic collapse. The hosts argue for "ripping the band-aid off" rather than sustaining the current system of SIFIs and government partnerships. They define the current state of US corporatism as a form of fascism where regulators have an incentive to rescue failing entities to hide their own failures.
