I’m so looking forward to sitting down with this, dear Tammy. Dr. Peterson has had many excellent conversations with Dr. Hicks, but the way he explains things to you makes me feel that I can understand better.

Love Hicks. Tammy you seem to be on the anti-Post Modernism bandwagon of late. I'm on board! Give me reality over fantasy any day.

He suggested hosting Sheikh Joe Bradford to talk about how Islamic law deals with contemporary women’s issues and whether Sharia law can address the problems and issues of Western women.

Whenever people talk about postmodernism like this, they neglect to mention the reasons it came about. It didn't just spontaneously spawn of spite. People became dissatisfied with the delusions of modernity with the beginning of the 20th century

I only watched from 47:00 to 59.00, to hear the bit about the arts, and it was painful, cringe-worthy, sad; you can tell those two people don't have the faintest clue of what culture was in the last 300 years. They keep ascribing causes and characteristics to a "post-modern age" that have been part and parcel of European and US culture since the 1700s. They have zero interest in understanding the world they live in; what they're looking for is an easy scapegoat on which to to blame everything they abhor. I had to chuckle at the bit about narcissism and negativity and dark mindframes in the "post-modernist era"; this silly pair never heard of the "Freien", or "Young Hegelians", who in the 1830s systematically denied and demolished all the "truths" and "certainties" dear to ordinary people. Move back 200 years and look up the "New Pyrrhonists", who did the same in the 1600s. The bit about AI being "modernist"/logical/rational as opposed to "post-modernist"/irrational is a simplistic dichotomy that fails to take into consideration the mystical motivations of many scientists, ancient and recent. Hicks needs to look into the life of Jack Parsons to disabuse himself of the notion that technology and irrationality are antagonistic: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Parsons This man's a crank. Always beware of specialists who blame everything on a SINGLE cause; the world's too messy for anything to be caused by a single thing.
