This is the most fair&accurate critique of JBP and #IDW I've encountered.
They're doing good work, but "IDW treats postmodernism simply as a type of philosophical reasoning rather than also a stage of interior development in consciousness and culture."https://integrallife.com/can-the-intellectual-dark-web-save-western-culture/ …

"In this most recent cultural system macro-cycle, which has been underway since the 1960s, the popularity of IDW is evidence of the logjam breaking and the cultural system of the West entering a specific and predictable third stage known as the release or breakdown phase."

A fundamental problem I have with
#hypermodernism, as described in this article, is this assumption that the mind can and will eventually operate independently of the body and it's environment. I suggest looking into the book Mind in Life by@evantthompson1 reply 0 retweets 5 likes -
I agree with you that the mind nerds the body to operate, but there's the thing: hypermodernity is the milieu we are in, it doesn't represent any specific worldview. It's inherently a radical acceptance of multiplicities.

My understanding is that in the hypermodern world, premoderns don't need to integrate, because the world is actually fragmenting into different subcultures, each with own unique path, rather than unifying, and that's okay.

Right. The ideas is who's to say that there is one singular integral path for everyone? Maybe the paths and integrations can happen in multiple directions. There are no static hierarchies of consciousness. Hierarchies aren't gone, but are fluid and multidirectional.

If I’m following you correctly... i definitely agree that we are fragmenting into subcultures, imo because the internet. I don’t actually think “the way” is different across those, just different linguistically and maybe ritually, because there’s one reality... Paul says...
