    If human nature is the problem, then denying its existence can't be the solution.

        Nor can any solution that ignores human nature be viable...

        and the corollary: If the main factor behind the problem is denial of how deeply situationalism goes, searching for the cause in human nature can’t be the solution. Fortunately, each approach, if done honestly , can provide huge steps forward. Well, not from a tribal perspective.

        Thank the Lord of science that Eugene Gendlin dealt with this relationship so beautifully and deeply! I recommend his essay The Responsive Order for anybody who wants a fascinating evening of scientific/philosophical reasoning at its best.

        But if what’s made us successful is our adaptability, doesn’t that suggest that “human nature” is not fixed but is more like a sliding scale allowing us to adjust our behaviour depending on the circumstances we find ourselves in?

        Blank-slaters aren't denying it, they just understand it's constructed, so if nobody says 'you guys' to a mix-gendered group, all our problems will be solved. .... right?

        IOW, liberalism is not the solution. No I’m not being smug. Read A Conflict of Visions and/or The Righteous Mind. Leftism is based on a set of assumptions about human nature that are anti-science. For example this from @HdxAcademy’s original “Problem” page.pic.twitter.com/Gt9p2ssrJl
