@dee_of_e I sadly have heard of all of his buddies and as much as I appreciate their existence they are just in a totally different lane than Habermas. I don't understand why the comparison is even being made.

I really like the type of post that’s like “why is Habermas famous and not me and my buddies you’ve never heard of”

Neglected Social Theory
Neglected Social Theory@MutualSociology·
@ickeriss @pourfairelevide I see your point though. If we focus on post-WWII grand theory, the neo-Kantians were the major influences in Anglo-sociology. However, it’s still worth noting that most grand theorists since Parsons have also incorporated Marx into their analyses, among other theorists.

@MutualSociology @pourfairelevide I think it’s mainly because the major schools are explicitly influenced by ppl like Weber and Durkheim. You are probably right about the Hegelian social theorists—I haven’t read them, but I think it’s quite true that mainstream sociology is reliant on the ppl she focuses on.

Neglected Social Theory
Neglected Social Theory@MutualSociology·
@ickeriss @pourfairelevide The main thing I don’t like about it is that she selectively focused on the neo-Kantians in sociology while ignoring the others, and equating them with sociology. For ex, George H. Mead, an important social theorist, was heavily influenced by Hegel. Georges Gurvitch was another.

There’s nothing shameful about audiobooks. We all have to do the dishes, buy groceries, take a shit—might as well learn while you do boring tasks. You’re not going to lug around a 4lbs book to occupy your mind.

@omnidepressant @materialcritic All i’m saying here is that I’d like more context to how this girl “defended” Sati. If she said Sati was good because women should be purified or whatever I’d agree with its condemnation but there’s a more nuanced argument there that is often conflated with its defense.

@omnidepressant @materialcritic I didn’t say it made it defensible. To be clear, Spivak doesn’t “defend” sati. I said there is a conception of Sati in Spivak’s work that makes its “defense” defensible. By framing it as categorically wrong, you simplify the societal & colonial situation that drove its existence.

I'd argue that to the extent that the 'Meet Me In The Bathroom' scene in New York's early 2000's represented a "rebellion" of any kind, it was the one which ushered in the permanent hegemony of the investor class. Privileged, tediously bacchanalian and aggressively non-political.

NEW: Wired’s editor Katie Drummond said it added 200k new paid subs last year. She told me: “If you still don’t understand why Wired covers politics, you are either willfully ignorant or a complete idiot.” nytimes.com/2026/03/17/bus…
