It's very hard to prove with evidence the perversion of an ideology. I can only cite disparate evidence. I think once you become aware of these ideas you start seeing their influence though.
- apocalypstyx 6y agoIdeology is a lens: every one we try renders a different image, but without one, we are blind. The gravitational pull of one is always seen through the perspective of another.
- 205guy 6y agoYou have been adroitly played by TeaDrunk using your own logic against you. To use words of your own choosing: are you starting to see the influence of your own perverted ideology?
- DC-3 6y agoI meant pervasion. It was a typo. I think it could be demonstrated empirically that certain anti-rationalist attitudes have increased in recent years, especially on the left. Since we're not doing science here I don't see why I need to provide ultra-rigorous evidence. Is that itself anti-rationalist? I don't think so - I'm not trying to influence government policy or get a PhD - some discussion contexts call for a larger burden of evidence than others.
