This is THE Skill of the Moment

Bret Weinstein explains how Joshua Stylman, in the Inside Rail episode “Jews with Heterodox Views," demonstrates the "skill of the moment:"Watch the full episode: https://youtu.be/35xxAK3VtRA"Acknowledging that you got stuff wrong is incredibly painful, but necessary to coherent thought. Never has been more necessary than in our current moment, because the ability for pure fiction, not myth that's useful, but pure fiction to be passed off as fact has never been greater. The sophistication of the fiction mechanism is profound. And so your ability to look at what you thought and say, 'Yeah, got that one wrong. Don't love it. But it's causing me to reinvestigate other things that I was pretty sure of.' That is that's the coin of the realm as far as I'm concerned.And it's an incredibly rare skill at this moment. People are punished for exploring it. So even people who have a primordial version of it are not elaborating that skill. They're retreating from it.So anyway, that's kind of I think why you and I are able to have this conversation. I got lots of stuff wrong and I'm investigating lots of things that I was pretty sure of."***** Join DarkHorse on Locals!
