PART 2 of 2 Fresh off his appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience
(JRE), join me and Eric Weinstein in this frank discussion diving
deep into philosophical and existential questions of nuclear war,
UFOs, faith, belief, global conflict, antisemitism, the state of
elite academia, geopolitical threats including American leadership
in STEM, COVID annihilation and more. Eric holds a Ph.D. in
mathematical physics from Harvard, but did not pursue the
traditional academic route at all. He is an author, mathematician,
economist, and Managing Director of Thiel Capital. Eric practices
physics outside the academic establishment, and in that regard he
is most famous for his geometric unity proposal. He is the host of
The Portal podcast and known as one of the voices of the
intellectual dark web. Weinstein is a vocal critic of modern
academic hierarchies and advocates for advances in scientific
theory over an emphasis on experimental results. He is the host of
The Portal Podcast which can be found at
https://ericweinstein.org/. twitter.com/EricRWeinstein The crisis
in academia and the degradation of elite academic research
institutions. Too much administration? Why the equity in diversity,
equity and inclusion needs to die! Beyond communism? Is there a
“Diversity Delusion” (
https://www.manhattan-institute.org/diversity-delusion ).  Do
we need a new academic model? What would it be? Can we build a new
“container” for higher education and scientific research?  How
should the priesthood of academia be remade? Re-establishing the
concept of elitism.  Is America giving away its advantage to
foreign influences and cheap research labor? Have we shortchanged
PhD. labor? Is science talent underpaid? Is the American news media
keeping us in the dark and distribution mis/dis-information? We
need to know! The collapse of an academic pyramid the academic
hunger games and selling out of american science. What do think
about Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter. The relationship of free
speech and antisemitism. Culture should be the limiting factor not
limiting free speech. No solution to the unraveling of Twitter and
the sensationalization of social media. Optimism for AI brains
and a note on geopolitics. May global leadership be reborn! Connect
