(ii) why does any of this shit matter well maybe it doesnt hammer, nail, etc but it does seem to me that we are suffering a certain sort of epistemological crisis
looping back to the motivating conversation: it seems to me that we are very much in a sort of epistemological interregnum traditional Knowledge Authorities--universities, media, religion--have lost the mandate of heaven
i can imagine at least two causes one I talk about here with @collinofzion--this is an old story, but its simply a printing press-to-Reformation analogue universities and media authority relied on distributional barriers, and the Internet broke thosehttps://youtu.be/Gey0RPfR0kQ
this has been building for a while, and is arguably even older than the internet--look at the proliferation of alternate right media in the 80s, or underground left media in the 60s and 70s the internet and social media in particular blew everything wide open, tho
covid has been a second and acute disaster for traditional information authority experts fucked it up their mandate was to predict, prevent, and mitigate this sort of unusual event and they failed they failed embarrassingly badly and others did not fail
things like the replication crisis and rampant politicization have been eating away at institutional academic authority for a while, but that was mostly inside baseball and a slow boil compared to fucking up covid you_had_one_job.jpg
in summary this is what I am thinking is a major social role of our corner of twitter
our epistemological system is broken; the mandate of heaven is up for grabs
@wesyang talks about a successor ideology, but i am more interested in the successor epistemology
oh this is good sigh i dont want money anyway
thanks for the recc :)
