some highlights:
marc strives to have as little degree of introspection as possible
marc thinks nobody really had the desire (or maybe even the capacity) to introspect before 400 years ago
marc thinks guilt is a manufactured result of therapy wrongly asking the Great Men of History to reflect on consequence
marc thinks the thrust of history post enlightenment is, roughly, the story of “individuals” building empires, corporations, technologies
marc points at the history of therapy arising in europe in the 1910s-20s (specifically naming “Freud and that whole movement”) as the source of a “guilt based whammy” that convinces the individual to self-criticize
marc thinks nobody really had the desire (or maybe even the capacity) to introspect before 400 years ago
Nobody famously said something about the value of introspection 2500 years ago.
