In this essay, we consider whether the emergence of patriarchal social systems was the emergence of gender as such. How does this fit in with the idea of a post-hierarchical gender liberation that's a response to a history of oppression rather than a retreat before it? To answer that question, we reconsider the construction of gender as a construction using Bhaskar's critical realist distinction between transformative and unilateral power.

In this essay, we discuss the origins of patriarchal hierarchy within the egalitarian societies of our ancestors. While material accumulation certainly matters, there are examples of surplus not leading directly to hierarchy for many generations. Understanding the overwhelming complexity of our technofeudal moment requires a historical narrative true to that complexity.

In this essay, we discuss the controversy over whether or not evolution drives toward complexity or mere diversity. One of the obstacles is the fascist implications of any sort of purpose or direction to evolution. From far-from-equilibrium thermodynamics to organisms as hypotheses made by entire species, and with the complexification of exorcism into Internal Family Systems, we consider evolution's complexifying march.

In this essay, we discuss how our culture fills us with profit-driven stories, mass-produced archetypes, and narcissistic desires. Why do we desire things that harm us rather than things that contribute to human flourishing? Who defined what makes a truly good life and why do you continue to believe them despite the emptiness you feel inside?

In this essay, I bring Francesca Ferrando’s post-human philosophy into dialogue with the Neo-Piagetian educational philosophy of Theo Dawson and Zak Stein. Post-humanism stands for a post-dualism that refuses the oppression of dualisms, but if not taken carefully risks the oppressive dualism between anti-dualism and dualism. Through Neo-Piagetian complexification, we can see how simplistic dualisms have the potential to become pedagogical tools toward a more complex, though not necessarily inherently Good understanding of reality.

In this essay, I discuss the roadblocks in the way of Western egalitarianism through a discussion of our nomadic prehistory, the emergence of gender hierarchy, and social status. Contrary to popular belief, human beings have spent the majority of the last several hundred thousand years in egalitarian bands. When inequality seems to be accelerating faster than ever, what's the special sauce that made egalitarianism possible in the first place?

In this essay, I discuss the contradiction embedded in the claim that ethical relations can make us more human. To say such a thing is to imply that some of us are less human than others. This creates a morally dubious hierarchy in which solarpunk humanization is itself, effectively, dehumanizing. If you like this episode, please be sure to 5 star the podcast and follow for more!

In this essay, I discuss the differences between Jungian archetypes and "parts" from Internal Family Systems. I first consider them on axes of complexity, autonomy, and mythology, with archetypes having greater potentials along each. I then discuss how these differences are not merely horizontal, but that archetypes have the potential to represented nested wholes that contain entire systems or more than system of parts.
