Carl Jung was right when he wrote that if a man does not face his shadow by age 35 he will not improve. He will calcify. His defense will become his personality.

[Hey, Dave! @davegreenidge57]

JD Vance just ended his presidential exploratory election committee. Now, his mentor, Peter Thiel, has fled the U.S., for right wing Argentina. But not before declaring that he might have overstated AI’s impact on society, particularly on employment.

Something bad is happening.

It seems to be that only a very tiny minority of people are actually capable of decoupling their identity from their ideas, examining their ideas logically in an impersonal way, and courageously changing their position when they realize the insufficiency of their own arguments.

What I mean here is: the vast majority of people subscribe to the ideas they subscribe to primarily for SOCIAL or SENTIMENTAL reasons. These commitments act as an impediment to the exercise of reason, and as handicaps with dealing with arguments.

When you, for example, refute the central point of someone's ideological position, and present evidence for the refutation that the other party can't help but accept as valid -- it doesn't mean that the person is going to admit they're wrong and then change their position.

They generally might, at best, say something like "huh, you might have a point there," forget the conversation, and move on. Because their social ties hinge upon their ideological commitments, and they basically value those ties more than they value truth or reason, the rational backdrop of their ideological disposition is totally secondary (or perhaps even not a factor at all).

This really is a major problem not just at the personal level but at the societal level. Without reason, without the conventions of sound argument, and without solid epistemological ground on which to find what is and is not factual, "ideology" or really any form of thought becomes purely social-emotional, and is divorced from anything resembling truth.

In that sort of climate, the only way to change society or to change the behaviors of people for the better is to influence their social betters in the hierarchies they interact with to adopt a more rational idea... In other words, when ideas become social-emotional accessories rather than substantive expressions of a well-reasoned argument, culture becomes the product of a soft and mostly informal series of status hierarchies and not much more.

If you are in the tiny minority of people who really will engage with what is true and rational regardless of the social consequences of doing so -- this state of affairs can and will drive you absolutely crazy. It will make you cynical.

And you will quickly begin to understand why the idea of aristocracy ever emerged.

BTW, for those who still think Peter Thiel and Elon Musk are pro-Libertarian, neither donated to Thomas Massie.

They are technocrats. They are coming for your free-will.

[Cenk Uygur @cenkuygur]

Epic showdown in Kentucky tomorrow. Main event: America vs Israel

If Israel wins, they’ll own our Congress. And if anyone denies that, they’re an obvious liar.

If Massie wins, America has a pulse. And we’re back in the ball game.

[The Megyn Kelly Show @MegynKellyShow]

.@AnaKasparian says that Thomas Massie losing would be a slap in the face to all Americans:

"What this communicates to us is that our elections and so-called democracy isn't real... A lobby that is far more concerned with a foreign country has more power than ordinary Americans."
