Michel Bauwens
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"The strange result is that we now have a ‘right’ that does just the opposite, i.e. 1) defends universalism and the positive legacy of the Enlightenment 2) fights for free speech and ideological diversity on campus and, 3) refuses judgments based on biological markers."[1]--Michel Bauwens on wokeness "First of all, we are of course not aligned to Jordan Peterson or Quilette, which are in my opinion, like the Intellectual Dark Web, mostly center-right sources, that are in opposition to the alt-right but also count a number of progressive authors. We have on occasion shared critical videos on Jordan Peterson, because he engages directly with issues of horizontality and hierarchy, which are our core concerns, and critiques by Quilette and Aero magazine on group identity theory. The criteria for selection is that these articles are sufficiently well argued, supported by evidence, and can help us think more clearly about a topic by confronting different perspective"[2] --Michel Bauwens, reacting to Kevin Carson |
