Not a fan of Rick Rubin or Brett Weinstein’s pontificating. I say this because near the beginning, Rick Rubin had interrupted a crucial inspired moment where Weinstein was touching on something really poignant but was shut down and the opportunity to say whatever it was that he was developing, was then gone.

I feel that language itself slows progression. When we talk about effects that alarm us, in 2024, for example, we include ourselves by using the pronoun “we” which is definitely diluting and pulling apart, not integrating, our individual voices, as the “lone wolf” theory Weinstein suggests as much as it does in the intentions of USA’s compromised bipartisanship between the Senate and House of Representatives. Thomas Kuhn touched on this phenomenological lack of alacrity in our societal and scientific paradigm shifts, referred to in his book, ‘The Structure of Scientific Revolutions’.
