    Almost nothing living fits into strict categories. Living things are far too complicated for that. The video states that human brains like having clear categories but I also read the first 10 pages of pedagogy of the oppressed and human nature arguments are designed to hurt everything I love. Maybe if we all grew up in a non-hierarchical society that wasn't anti-intellectual we wouldn't gravitate towards density.

      Honestly the first ten pages give you a good understanding on its aim, trajectory and some consequences. In that way the book is well made even if it reads a bit propagandist, but that seems to work better than Capital's 20 fore words.
