In our final discussion of the Changing Tides video series, Michael O’Fallon and James Lindsay discuss the alchemic properties of Hegel’s understanding of science.
His view of science isn’t what most of us consider science.

In other words, for Hegel and his ideological descendants, Theory comes first and evidence after.
