Did Pinker really say we shouldn't critically examine the claim that centuries of racism and sexism seem to have imprinted themselves into our institutions on a structural level? Seems very unlikely.https://twitter.com/clarkjosephf/status/967864924809637895 …

In fact, Helen, I've read a few of your articles now, and I'd be interested to get your take and read an article from you on Traditionalism and Western Esotericism, the kind of stuff that Jordan Peterson seems to have an affinity for. Just an idea.

I am not a fan of that stuff at all.

Thanks all 1,000,000 gods and myths that they would analyze. Neither am I.

Personally, I agree. The problem for me is when the postmodernists suggest that there is no idea of "absolute justice." For me, even if this was true, it would be no reason to not strive for "better justice."

The idea that we can move forward seeking justice through unethical means is what I see from these postmodernists lately; the sabotage, resorting to violence, cutting mics, etc. Not only is it unethical but misguided in that they look awful doing it, undermines their aims.

I do feel like in order to understand where the West is politically and socially today that one would need to unravel the entire history of 20th century thought. Rough task, but important? as Jordan Peterson seems to embrace some of this.
