#relativism — Public Fediverse posts

Carter and Sosa have revised their SEP-entry on Metaepistemology, https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/metaepistemology/

Another updated entry is Sophie Horowitz's Higher-Order Evidence, https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/higher-order-evidence/, which, regrettably, resonates painfully for an Alzheimerist doubting his own cognition.

Truth isn’t a mood you pick. This piece argues objective truth exists beyond belief, and that relativism collapses under its own weight. Clarity, evidence, and a steady moral standard offer a map through cultural noise.

i've long wanted to read a thorough, laser focused indictment of post modern theory. unfortunately that book could exist and i wouldn't know and if i did i probly wouldn't have the patience to read to the end

was just reading the intro and dedication of marc bloch's historian's craft and occurred to me that part of the reason norms and such are flying apart from what seems like centrifugal forces might be that we seem to have switched into a mode whereby history no longer has any purchase

if the record of the past is largely meaningless (or little more than a curiosity) then it doesn't matter so much what we do in the moment, whether an individual or an institution

A quotation from George Orwell

All nationalists have the power of not seeing resemblances between similar sets of facts. A British Tory will defend self-determination in Europe and oppose it in India with no feeling of inconsistency. Actions are held to be good or bad, not on their own merits, but according to who does them, and there is almost no kind of outrage — torture, the use of hostages, forced labour, mass deportations, imprisonment without trial, forgery, assassination, the bombing of civilians — which does not change its moral colour when it is committed by ‘our’ side.

George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1945-05), “Notes on Nationalism,” Polemic Magazine (1945-10)

We’ve never lived on granite foundations. What we call “objectivity” in social and moral life is scaffolding: provisional, rhetorical, maintained through care, reciprocity, and revolt.

In my new essay, I map an operating model for reasoning without granite illusions — and argue for an ethic of repair.
