One of the most wishy-washy, bourgeois philosophy out there. Bitch I know I exist, now how is that going to help us get rid of capitalism.

    stephen pinker is a stupid geriatric cuck to the elite who thinks technology alone will solve all of humanity's current problems when in the hands of the "right people (TM)" and is under the delusion that human "progress" up to this moment has been accelerating.

    His rotten liberal brain cannot comprehend the fact that an accelerating technological development in the pursuit of increasing human wellbeing and understanding of reality would be a good thing only in the hands of a communist world system.

      Pinker sure does suck, I agree. The issue is that the essence of what the likes of Pinker assume about the progress of science isn't all that different from what you're saying either. Even under a communist world, I doubt that science will be able to solve a local issue, in our closed system, like the hard problem of consciousness because of emergent facets of consciousness that are the conditions of its own possibility. I'm not the smartest dude but that seems like a loop we aren't going to get ourselves out of
