"Humans are hierarchical...It’s within our nature to fall into a hierarchy." "By the same token, we are also egalitarian...It’s something that helps form bonds and relationships that has given all of us meaning beyond simply existing as a creature that needs to eat, sleep, and relieve itself of waste."
Welcome to the show, In this episode of "Been Awake with LB," we delve into the concepts of hierarchy and equality, examining their origins, implications, and the inherent tension between them in human societies. LB discusses the historical roots of the term "doctor of philosophy," the pursuit of wisdom, and the role of expertise in today's world. The conversation then shifts to a personal anecdote about a philosophy club meeting, highlighting the importance of reframing questions to foster deeper understanding.
