Why shouldn't I like him? Is it because he is one of those atheist materialist fags or what?

Boring polemicist. Very simplistic notion of the Enlightenment. Too much rhetoric. Bad history.

He makes leftists seethe, which is good enough for me to like him

But he's right, Nietzsche was a massive faggot and the world would have been better off if he was aborted

He's a nice guy. Good but not great. He can't ride evola's tiger so to speak so now he's screwed. He's definitely got the insights for a career as a celebrity in the 90s or 00s

I get bad vibes from Pinker, something about him seems insincere and potentially evil. Though maybe it's just because this pic >>19503841

Doesn't understand statistics. Also friend of Epsteins.

His early books (when he stayed in his lane) were actually quite alright. I'm astonished to find out that the author of How The Mind Works or The Language Instinct can write something this thoroughly idiotic. I had a better reading of Nietzsche when I was in high school and I straight up didn't understand 2/3's of it.
