J'avais raté cette vidéo de Shaun sur un livre récemment coordonné par l'agresseur sexuel (et accessoirement physicien et figure très présente dans les milieux sceptiques scientifiques des années 2000-2010) Lawrence Krauss chez un éditeur conspirationniste d'extrême-droite chrétienne américain.

Si vous voulez en savoir plus sur les liens entre certains scientifiques américains, qui s'inscrit dans la suite des #ScienceWars et le lien avec l'affaire #epstein (qui aurait pu prévoir???), voilà où on en est. Comme d’hab c'est long mais c'est documenté.

This Wednesday, we'll be hosting anarchist writer @rechelon who has recently published a new book on the conflict between postmodernists and scientists in the the late 20th century. William will be joined in conversation by mathematical physicist @mmarcolli who has described the book as "a lucid and detailed analysis" of how left-leaning postmodernists gave birth to a fascist resurgence that's ensnared millions in an "alternative reality."

"Did The Science Wars Take Place?" returns to an infamous conflict across radical subcultural spaces and academia to examine its lingering influence on the Left and the Right today, with an eye towards what anarchists and activists can take away. Simultaneously a gossipy account of historical drama among radicals and a studious engagement within contemporary philosophy of science, it provides a discursive autopsy and political analysis that will surprise most readers.
