It's very weird to argue with someone well-informed who seems to be (much) more of a modernist than I am. Cheers.

  > It's very weird to argue with someone well-informed who seems to be (much) more of a modernist than I am. I'm a modernist in certain things, but not in all things. I'm not much of a fan of modern politics, for example.

    It was a bit tongue-in-cheek there, modernist pretty much means "traditionalist" in this context. Philosophers have long since moved on to post-modernism and post-postmodernism and meta-modernism and all sorts of other nonsense. Kuhn was an archetypal post-modernist.

      > modernist pretty much means "traditionalist" in this context Ah, ok. I'm certainly not a post-modernist or post-post-modernist or meta-modernist or any of those things.
