I thought I could do without the /s tag
- hilbert42 5y agoSorry, that's the McLemore article. From the way you were talking I thought it was an article by E.O. Wilson himself.
- disgruntledphd2 5y agoI think that the person you asked the question of was talking about the Sci Am article, but I was hoping for some evidence that EO Wilson was a racist, from his published works. All I can figure out is that if you don't subscribe to a blank-slate approach to human behaviour (i.e. nurture >> nature) then apparently you are racist. Probably someone should have mentioned that to all the authors of the psychology textbooks I read in college, then.
- hilbert42 5y agoRight, what you're saying makes sense to me (see my concerns about that in other posts). (I once studied formal logic and I still have most of my textbooks but I'm seriously thinking of ditching them. Of late, with the emergence of the new COVID logic and logic sans steps or process, I've decided that what I once leaned is getting into too much confrontation. Life would be much easier if I unlearned everything.)
