• Personally sympathetic to anti-egalitarianism and reducing importance of agency by assigning strong roles to non-conscious factors.

  • Framing a philosophy in a non-universalizing way is

    1. intellectually honest

    2. easy to defend / hard to attack

    3. suffers memetically (lacks a priori reason to convince anyone to adopt it) … so in some sense it cannot survive ‘at steady state’
