Reading my mind? You don't seem to have read my essay. It cites Detmer, Sokal & Bricmont & Butler coz I'd not read Hicks at that point.

Yes. I wish I had. There are some good quotes in the first 2 chapters. Are we making very similar arguments?

Do you just mean that we make the same criticisms and cite the same culprits and critics of them? This is extremely likely.

But unlikely we make same argument coz he seems to be a fan of Peterson & I find him as much of a problem as the PoMos for similar reasons

Appreciated & accepted. It cld just be that we see the same problems with science-denial, intense sensitivity to language &identity politics

That is the basis of my criticism. You will see that Detmer, Sokal & Bricmont & Butler also make these criticisms.

They are valuable coz Butler attempts a neutral overview, Detmer looks at it philosophically & S&B scientifically.

If Hicks looks at it politically from right (does he?) & if he,like Peterson, regards PoMo as expansion of Marxism (does he?) we won't agree
