    I became on Associate Professor in 2019, I have been teaching at the University of Toronto since 1994.

      Very grateful for all your work John. You’ve taken me from the (purposefully) simplified psychology / philosophy of Jordan Peterson into something greater - and I’m very thankful for your presence in this world.

      John, I have followed your work and UA-cam channel. This is a very very clear and neat delivery of your thesis. Love it. Well done.

      Anyone judging the depth of John’s insight and fluidity in presenting it knows a full professorship is overdue, at least 5-10 years behind. What happened to UT?

      Well done John. To older people who grew up with meaning and institutions firmly in place perhaps your ideas don't resonate as much, to your younger audience who knows all to well the poverty of meaning and the fragmentation of attention - which seems to be worsening year on year - your ideas make perfect sense and are of vital importance.

      @@ericrosales3277 I agree that both are good. But his emphasis on the non-propositional is less clear here than in that other lecture. I kept thinking: "Are these people going to understand what the hell does he mean by 'propositional tyranny', and why do non-propositional stuff really matter?" His connection to ritual and participation was outstanding, in my opinion.

    It was an honour to view this talk after following your work since the Mapping the Mind conference in Toronto 5 or 6 years ago. This was your most accessible piece yet, which is crucial given its contents and my attempts to engage people with your Meaning Crisis series. The main theses from your series and other works unfold in an elegant condensation here - a clear reflection of your skill as an educator and the benefits of dialogos. Your thorough, respectful answers to questions from people who could benefit from engaging with more of your work was a pleasure to see and an excellent model.
    Thank you for expanding your reach and continuing to share your wisdom process.

    three ways of knowing as Vervaecke outlines, procedural, perspectival and participatory would not afford us new knowledge, but rather will culminate in recycling status quo to the point of complacency and further obscuring poignance of finitude and inevitability of death

    The liar and the bullshit artist differences , salience threat to cognitive behavior of flexibility was the description of todays world . while I can intuit that is true I also have interpreted this as my unbeknownst experience with damage to my basal ganglia.

    “We agency.” Yes, that can explain perhaps why groups from corporations to mobs will do things that they would never do alone. Unless I’ve misunderstood the idea.

    At 48:20 the guy asking the first question in the Q&A: he was talking about Socrates formulating a ruling class. I’ve realized that what Socrates first proposes is a simple life with no ruling class really, but that his interlocutors objected, saying that such a life was fit for “pigs.” Socrates then realized that what they wanted was a “luxurious city.” And that what Socrates demonstrates is that if you go for the luxury there will be trade offs.

  • @elenabalyberdina2393

    descriptive level is mostly accurate, but no explanation seems evident in this talk

  • @elenabalyberdina2393
    @elenabalyberdina2393 2 місяці тому

    After 30 minutes trying to convince us that relevance realization is a beautiful thing, thanks to Evolution, all of the sudden John informs us that we are equally incapable of recognizing things that should be paid attention to and instead ignore what should not be ignored. Indeed, Evolution works in mysterious ways? Without explaining as to why sometimes relevance realization misfires in the first place, John goes to blame Social Media for everything. John, if you are really open to correction from other people as you say you are, make explicit theoretically as to why cognition becomes faulty, without involving immediate critique of advertisement.

    Hearing the auditory and its questions, I see that generally West doesn't talk to eastern Europe on an intellectual level. The perfect example of it is Jordan Peterson's take on Ukraine - how ignorant he revealed himself about that issue! Now John is rather deep thinker and more refined communicator who can bring new tools for other cultures.

    • @Jacob011
      @Jacob011 Рік тому

      Peterson gets a lot of shit by speakers who usually don't listen to him long enough. He actually changed expanded his view on it. I don't see any simplistic take in Peterson on the Ukraine debacle.

    @elenabalyberdina2393 2 місяці тому

    it pretty obvious that it is almost impossible to have shared normativity with current for example north Korean regime. what needs to be understood is how different normativity arise in the first place. this talk doesn't even try to address this question

  • @elenabalyberdina2393
    @elenabalyberdina2393 2 місяці тому

    there no crisis of meaning per se, but rather clash of normativities and Vervaecke makes contradictory claims. one is being that we must come together on the basis of shared normativity, on the other, he encourages diversity of perspectives. total mass that is

      If the unpotentiated norm wasn't latent in the people, Jesus's spark would not have been sufficient to set it aflame. This isn't a criticism of Jesus, but a deeper recognition of his genius.
