New Episode: Epistemic Responsiblity - Out Now!

[Sempiternity]

Video is definitely sped up. Noticed this on the last video too. I'm sure it has something to do with today's audience short attention spans, or conforming to some YouTube algorithms, but it's just disappointing to see the change.

Nothing is sped up. Check your player settings.

Just finished it, deep episode. It aligns with some things I’ve realized about truth-seeking. 

It also made me wonder if I’m way more epistemically irresponsible than I thought. Will be contemplating this one.

One thing I notice in Leo’s communication that could be improved is his tendency to overgeneralize science and assume the worst in scientists.

For instance, Leo critiques science as if science is just a stagnate methodology that isn’t improving itself. Science is constantly improving and the domain of science is so vast that it is difficult to criticize the whole thing. Newton looking through a telescope and testing his observations is science. Science doesn’t have to be done in a group or within the domain of academia. Me sitting in my armchair contemplating and testing my observations and insights is as much science as academia. Academia science may be more rigorous than an Ethnography or philosophical contemplation but it’s still science.

Leo tends to assume scientists are lazy, biased, atheistic, and dogmatic. This may be true of a lot of academic scientists. But it’s still a big generalization full of assumptions about a group of people. There is never any mention of a Tier 2 scientists. I am sure there are more great scientists out there than Leo may acknowledge.

Leo assumes scientists don’t account for relativism or don’t take philosophy seriously, but I don’t think this is true. I bet there are a lot of scientists that think deeply about philosophy. I understand Leo’s critiques and have seen the dogma myself but have also seen the opposite.

I just notice this bias to reduce science down or assume the worst. But there are probably great truth-seeking awakened scientists in the world today. Why couldn’t an awakened person be a scientist? What even counts as a scientist? A true capital S Scientist is one who cares relentlessly about Truth. So in a way, all of Leo’s critiques of science are of small s science and not capital S Science.

I still enjoyed the episode.

Much love. 🙏
