34/ We agree here. I'm just using "High theory" in the way that you use "theory that starts with theory and cherry picks data", and "low theory" in the way you use "starting with facts and then testing". https://twitter.com/PereGrimmer/status/1315664748378230784 …

35/ Also, maybe my "High Theory" maps to part of Kegan 4, and "Low theory" / "diversity of theories" maps to Kegan 5 and all that associated

36/ When you start out with a theory that you are convinced explains EVERYTHING, then things that do not mesh well with the theory get denied, ignored, or attacked. When you have multiple small theories, a thing that does not fit with T1 perhaps fits with T2.

37/ This thread touched on earlier trads who want to tie architecture aesthetics into a just economy for the working man, which is tied into traditional families, which is tied into Christianity, which is ... I think, OTOH, that those each demand their own theory.

38/ Ayn Rand also did High Theory, where aesthetics = politics = epistemology = philosophy so tiresome

40/ I'm also a fan of low theory, not high, in governance. Common Law is low theory - "here's what kinda more or less worked over time, and there's no a coherent philosophical basis for the whole thing beyond pragmatism."

Prince-philosopher Coinaday 🤴 🧐 @coinaday1Great thread but missing this: We need such a "High Theory" as the base of our personal narrative. And yet it will be false. The solution is to choose a relatively harmless lie, such as "Coinaday is the only significant Prophet in the last thousand years" and run with it. https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1315646152331726849 …1 reply 0 retweets 9 likesShow this thread -
42/ I can't imagine basing my own personal narrative on something that I can't help but see as nonsensical. But, OTOH, that means that I don't have much of a personal narrative. I guess it boils down to "I try to do X, but !@# happens and I end up doing Y instead". ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

43/ "Conversational tool", you say? Well, I've tried screaming "you are stupid, and you are saying stupid things, and please stop that" at people, but I can't really recommend it as being effective.https://twitter.com/WomanCorn/status/1315668389164089345 …
