      Good luck with that! Truth doesn't care much whether it serves the purpose of humanity or not. XD Otherwise we could just make all the unpleasant truths not true any more & then we'd never die, there'd be no war, famine, global waming etc. Better to acknowledge them & deal.https://twitter.com/CalabreseJuve/status/953812626689019904 …

      I fail to understand how that is relevant to his point. You fail to observe the implications of his statement where truth also needs to serve the purpose of humanity.

      JP did a poor job of explaining his position on this during the first Sam Harris interview; he’s cleared it up fairly well at this point. Does not deny the existence of factual truth but posits existence of meta truths, something more along the likes of Jung’s archetypal truths

      So he denies the objectivity of truth because things can be true whether they are objectively true or not. This is typical of postmodernism,

      Replying to @HPluckrose

      The first thing I said after listening to the Sam Harris interview, it's just as postmodern as the SJW's. It's just that it's meninism-light, sprinkled in w some good 'ol trad gender roles and christianity.

      You get it. Why is so hard for so many other astute and reasonable people?

          To be fair he's pretty good at the gender pay gap and also free speech. He's got an massive presence on YouTube, that's where you reach the millenials.

          He's le Resistance, I guess. He makes for an good "Watch how JP totally schooled this SJW" video, I call it meme-fitness :) . Also perhaps he caters to a lot of the religious crowd, who don't feel comfortable with other detractors of 3rd wave fem, whom I think are mostly atheist
