jeez what a shame people aren't willing to take a few hours out of their busy day to listen to an uncanny dissection of how to go about properly examining the world

jasi i made this username when i was 15 without a clue in the world. i thought the word "ridonkulous" was really funny. i soon learned why it isn't nor shouldn't be anything close to really funny. thank god i had my ish big brothers to teach me right from wrong, good from bad, funny from lame, dumb from bright, and the rest.

you know who you all are! god bless

So the guy talked about what kind of questions or inquiry is viable in the research of language. That was specific, so I don't know why exactly you'd pick this talk out of everything Mr. Ch has been saying publicly.

Anyway, that seems rad to think that language and language structure is very much biological, or innate. Doesn't it? Well, it was addressed in Q&A.

Also, Mr. Ch was very straightforward to call out what he thought made no sense. It got heavy in times.

Loved how he recalled somebody going around evolutionary theory and hypothesizing how maybe it was better to be a little dumb and unimaginative, as only the smart and brave would go out to fight lions, while one might rather chill back home with females, waiting for the loot to be brought. I don't like how people subscribe to so-called evolutionary teachings too quickly and too fully. It's became a dichotomous dimension, I think, oh you don't think evolution is real vs oh evolution is what has happened. Which are both flawed in phrasing, and are set to fail from the get go.
