did millgram answer even one question directly? i fundamentally mistrust people like millgram who avoid direct responses. we all listen to tyler because we know a combination of intelligence, education and openeness allows a person to give direct responses. you trust yourself!
1:04:19 Karl Popper claimed to have solved the problem of induction by explaining that all knowledge is created via evolution (variation and selection). Theories or ideas that survive criticism are like genes that survive natural selection. Therefore, the theories that survive embody knowledge that is adapted to its purpose. That purpose is to answer questions or solve problems (conflicts between existing theories). If a theory offers a better answer to a question than all its rival theories the rival theories should be discarded. The reason Popperians can seem so dogmatic to some non-Popperians is that one aspect of critical rationalism is finding disagreements and trying to figure out which of the disagreeing points of view should be discarded. This is not always possible given the existing knowledge of the participants in the discussion. The best way to pop the Popperians balloon would be to provide, or point out, a refutation of Popper's solution to the problem of induction by way of evolution.
OK, I just unsubscribed you. Why? Because you wouldn't let Millgram explain Newcomb's Paradox. Your comment that "this is for us" meaning not for the listener seeking knowledge disappointed but alerted me to the unsuitability of this channel for this listener.
