I think the 2 biggest mistakes he makes are that 1) It doesn't make sense to say that there is a rational "obligation" to reason instrumentally and 2) The skeptical attitude he describes doesn't entail that there no correct reasons, just that there are no correct "stance independent" or-whatever-else-realist-phrase-here reasons. Re 1: The only way a conscious agent can act is with respect to its own goals and interests. Every conscious action is a result of your preferring to do 1 choice of action over another. There's no way to not reason instrumentally if you are a conscious agent, because that's just what reasoning instrumentally is. Re 2: Unless he was talking about adopting a globally skeptical attitude, it's absolutely fine to endorse an account of pragmatic, deflationary, instrumental, etc reasons. Skepticism about realist concepts isn't skepticism tout court.
What the heck is "constitual"? He insists upon continually using this word and its forms. As far as I can look up, it's a translation of constitutional. Is that what he is trying to say? Why the f--- doesn't he just say constitutional. Anybody want to help me?

Thank you. Don’t know why it’s not showing on your channel for me.
