Brooks: What's wrong with the IDW?

Meaning intellectual dark web. Michael's interview with Rising below.

"These are guys who are fixated on justifying hierarchies that are socially, politically produced. And not wanting to look at the reason why things have come into play. Like capitalism is just good" (1:32).

"The shortcoming of this group so often is that I did not see them applying those same principles outward" (8:00).

This is one of my main complaints with all of the 'new paradigm' folks, from integral to metamodernism to game b etc.: Lots of complex (and contorted) theory and little on social enaction. With the exception of the P2P and collaborative commons movement, that is.
