Capitalism and the Antichrist with Justin Murphy

Justin Murphy is a political scientist and online intellectual and entrepreneur. In this conversation we explore: Balancing compassion and analytical coldness, and how an excessive focus on compassion hinders the contemporary radical left; how "woke capital" manipulates this aversion to analytical coldness; accelerationism and how the global market order functions as an AI; the impossibility of computing the end goals of this "AI", and how it maps onto the religious notion of God; the Christian eschatology, and the overlap between capitalism, instrumental rationality and the antichrist; alternatives to instrumental rationality (using rationality to optimise certain outcomes; efficiency); Justin's Christian faith, and the Christian focus on the truth as the fundamental ethical imperative; eschatology and the Kierkegardian "leap of faith"; the notion that modernity and exponential economic growth may have come as a result of a Faustian pact with the devil; US geopolitical hegemony and US-China relations; political responses to the coronavirus pandemic, and how the US federal government's failings might actually motivate citizens to become more creative and self reliant; social cohesion and building small, technologically sophisticated communities; reengineering humanity to adapt to digital, and the inequalities that will open between those who experiment and adapt and those who cling to a "normal" that has disappeared.
