Kastrup vs. the World

Post by AshvinP »

BK is really working up a presence these days. After BK called out Sam Harris previously for completely misrepresenting idealism, he also gave Michael Shermer a piece of his Mind at Large. The latter has just invited him to debate idealism on his podcast. And BK was mentioned to Jordan Peterson a few times on the latter's podcast with Vervaeke. Things are heating up!

Mild-mannered Bruce Wayne at Essentia Foundation turns into Idealism's combative Caped Crusader of the Twitterverse ;)
Here out of instinct or grace we seek
soulmates in these galleries of hieroglyph and glass,
where mutual longings and sufferings of love
are laid bare in transfigured exhibition of our hearts,
we who crave deep secrets and mysteries,
as elusive as the avatars of our dreams.

And I may have had a small part to play in this origin story, as I quote tweeted to BK. At least that's the lie I am choosing to believe... "He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight." 8-)

In his latest interview, BK goes into some more nuanced reasons for why he has issues with Sam Harris, specifically in the 30 minute segment during the 23-53 minute time frame, if anyone really still cares ...
