    There are plenty of women today who are unaware of the charade of culture and are heavily intoxicated by it. Some women are smart, some men are smart; smart people are smart, and dumb people are dumb, regardless of gender. Terence is the man though, i love him and agree with him most of the time.

      I think he's making generalizations about the mean average... I don't think he intends to imply that women are identical to each other, but that there are certain feminine and masculine traits which manifest more commonly in the average. He was also talking about the way things were when our social constructs were very much more divided and clear cut then they are now. Our current cultural atmosphere doesn't have women traditionally burying the dead, for example. He was speaking of the biological and social development of humanity. :)

      I don't think it's a gender thing. I think it's a combination of the openness one must have to question all that is being told and the exposure to psychedelics and people like Terrence McKenna.

      Yeah the Chemistry analogy was actually pretty insightful. Interesting view point. I think I've seen most of TMK videos on youtube but this is a new one. In the same analogy, molecules increase in entropy or states of complication in other words as opposed to a single atom, however a system of atoms would probably have more entropy. People talking about feminism and whatnot and not really paying attention to what he is talking about

    I am not convinced the palaeolithic was some gendered equality promised land. Gender roles were very much separated, and we can see this in Australian aboriginal culture which is the oldest surviving palaeolithic culture. I do find the evolutionary arguments for speech interesting, but how do you even test that? It's an untestable hypothesis.

    • @Arthur-pc1eh
      @Arthur-pc1eh 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Nobody expected the palaeolithic to be a "gender equality promised land", as acknowledging two (or more, in some societies) genders doesn't mean that they would all have to behave the same and have the same tasks and roles in a prehistoric society, because it's not like that in apes (or almost any other mammal). Would that still mean that women or other genders are oppressed? Not if they are respected for what they are, they don't perceive oppression, and males also behave within the role that the whole society has set them in. And that definitely changed when cultures became settled and centered on human production.

      Christopher Williams He was a voracious reader from a young age. Aside from having a lifelong obsession of nature since the was a child, he was reading Jung age 10, and involved in the Catholic Church, while at the same time researching ancient esoteric dark magic rituals. He moved to Berkeley during the golden age of the 60s, he traversed all of Asia and India and the middle East and the Amazon, and he had ungodly abilities to handle massive doses of whatever drugs he came across. I don't think anyone taught him - he simply was at the right places at the right times, naturally incurably inquisitive, and never stopped reading. Once he mentioned that "wonder gets him high".

    Feminism is evidence of women not being aware of the cherade of culture. Women also tend to be more community oriented, more go-along regarding society and culture,

    • @user-hv1uv7gm3o
      @user-hv1uv7gm3o 6 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      THE LOGIC ONLY ZONE Feminism involves essentially disapproving of cultural normalities put in place that oppress women. How is it then, that feminism, is ignorant of culture? What?
      Feminism in its traditional sense is revolt against systems and cultural practices that are entrenched to suppress the power of females. E.g. forced religious attire, lack of education, child marriages, sex slavery, lower wages etc etc

    • @logiconlyzone
      @logiconlyzone 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Ava Lansley And replaces it with a new culture. Trading one god for another. I agree that feminist research tried to disprove metalinguistic discourse and other cukturak aspects as ideology, as unnatural and manmade. However feminist culture replaces traditional culture with modern culture. Its just as toxic. A good example is the overvaluing or promotion of womens success when men as individuals have value too. Group value is the issue, and ways of thinking that forget the value of EVERY individual are exactly what terence is talking about.

    • @user-hv1uv7gm3o
      @user-hv1uv7gm3o 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Hence why I said traditional
      Feminism has come in waves and obviously involves different issues dependent on the society.
      Feminism doesn't involve valuing women's work over men's.. that's sexism. And if a person claims that then they're cloaking their own sexism with feminism. Cloaking person biases exists across every ideology, you just need to realise that such cloaking of bias is whats happening.
      Feminism is more so striving specifically for the rights of women. Like blacklivesmatter specifically strives for the rights of African Americans.
      These movements dont and should not eliminate the problems that exist for other social groups.
      I think the better way to understand feminism, is considering it as a movement that tries to alleviate the widely held concept masculinity > femininity.
      This incorporates male issues as well because largely sexism towards men stems from them being compared to a woman (femininity) e.g. homosexual men being degraded because theyre "weak" or "submissive" "get penetrated like a woman" etc etc
      Or how men are degraded for crying because its "too emotional" like a "woman" or men who have been sexually harassed by a woman are taunted because "you're lucky bro stop bitching you get pussy etc etc"
      The toxic concept of masculine>feminine oppressses men from expressing any behaviour outside of "macho emotionless violent powerful".

    • @logiconlyzone
      @logiconlyzone 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ava Lansley No, its group oriented. Group oriented ideas and perceptions are inherently culture. Culture is the enemy against the individual. All ideas that are group related or management based toward the group are inherently corrupt. Any female or male philsophy is inherently destructive toward the individual. Its individualism or nothing.
