  • Virtue-signaling
    A discussion of the relationship between scientism and virtue-signaling (specifically, signaling membership in the elite) in public life

    An exploration of the ways in which philosophical postmodernism is damaging USA version 1, possibly leading to the necessity of USA version 2.
