What is perplexing about it? Genuine curiosity - where I live those views would probably be considered mundane mainstream.
- jagrsw 6y agoI replied on this in another subthread, a minute ago or so. But as for the 'mainstream', Joscha exactly doesn't want to be mainstream - see his TT stream: :) "In a playground where most people can neither come up with ideas of their own.." and various other tweets and presos related to the harm of conforming to societal norms of thinking.
- antepodius 6y agoIf your views happen to align with the mainstream, that still isn't a reason to change them in and of itself. Being ruled and controlled by the mainstream is bad, because the mainstream makes mistakes; but that doesn't mean that the right path is just to try and be as much the opposite of the mainstream as possible.
- jagrsw 6y agoThere's no disagreement in here.
