All fields are disappointing in 2018 due to defective incentive structures within the academy. EvoPsych does not speak for evolutionary theory. Don't let it distract you. The most powerful defense of that which you clearly value is based in a Darwinian perspective.https://twitter.com/IonaItalia/status/1018728419167633408 …

innocent pleasures. While I love other aspects of evolutionary biology, evo psych is a truly joyless discipline. It reduces so many beautiful aspects of life, so many fun ways of interacting, so many delicious ways of just inhabiting the body into something to be scorned,

  I was uncertain if I could possible understand why uncertainty reduction is the only actual motivation but then I realized I could simply accept it & my uncertainty was reduced, so it must be true. http://slatestarcodex.com/2018/03/04/god-help-us-lets-try-to-understand-friston-on-free-energy/ … pic.twitter.com/zw0GDlScKL

  Bret, I enjoy your commentaries immensely, but here's an interesting perspective. I've been studying Quantum Physics for 11 yrs and found intuition tobe both an advantage and disadvantage. What I see is not always what's there.If I apply this thinking to other areas like politics

  "The most powerful defense of that which you clearly value is based in a Darwinian perspective." Darwin today is more, in the wiser words of T.S. Eliot, like a whimper than a bang. The backwardness of some psychologists as if we haven't yet passed Darwin is ceaselessly wonderous!

  "#EvoPsych does not speak for evolutionary theory." Certainly that is true. It is equally true that evolutionary biology does not speak for evolutionary theory. Or #evolutionary economics. Or evolutionary cosmology. So who does speak for it? Who's it's best interdisciplinarian?

  The issue is that you should not let your understanding of the props and stage mechanics blind you to the meaning and beauty of the play.

  I get where she's coming from. The view that absolutely everything is driven by the imperatives of propagation and survival where is the part that makes those things worthwhile? Always seemed that what separates humans from other animals is our capacity for impractical activity

  Eco Psychology really helped me understand and appreciate Darwin and more importantly Evolution

  EvoPsych preoccupies itself with details (esp. the titilating details of human sexuality), but is blind to the bigger & infinitely more important picture, which includes the perverted Darwinian nature of their state employer:https://twitter.com/rogerahicks/status/1008227827945213952 …

  The state has always rewarded those who transfer their loyalty from own people (tribe/village/ethnic group/race) to the state, & punished those who don't. State contempt for white identity is therefor nothing new. @epkaufm @GoodwinMJ @DAaronovitch @David_Goodhart @RubinReport
