How to Win the Meme War

YouTube Version

I had a fascinating conversation with Brett Hall, Carlos De la Guardia, and PF Jung in Austin, Texas. We explored the intersections of ideas from Karl Popper, David Deutsch, Jordan Peterson, and Bret Weinstein, focusing on epistemology, memetic warfare, and the role of rational and anti-rational memes in shaping culture. Paul shared his project on winning the "meme war" through radical enlightened centrism, while we discussed street epistemology, the evolution of ideas, and the balance between tradition and progress. From the wisdom encoded in religions to the potential of transhumanism, this conversation is a deep dive into how we create, critique, and spread ideas for a flourishing society.
