some quality control for historical perspective could be useful here. a) the argument that being Catholic made you unable to be modern, forgets that Matin Luther was Catholic until he changed his mind, b) Sumerians had records and procedures, and c) not all protestant countries are presidential systems, ie in UK or Germany the leader is chosen by a party not general population, and their charisma is not why they are chosen, plus plenty of Catholic Italian city states had elections, or some kings were also elected, this critique could unfortunately continue for many points presented here as gospel

Would it be correct to say that when Rationality loses its Reflexivity it turns into Tradition? For eg. The beureaocratic system of China was extremely rational but was also traditional because of its lack of Reflexivity and reliance on 'how it has always been done'.

OMG did you drink to much coffee or red bulls? Do you REALLY think explaining a philosopher works best if you talk that fast? If you leave people breathless, without the opportunity to come to grips with what you're saying?

Hold on, I gotta draw a god damn diagram for this. Did this lady really just try to describe rationalization using 3 different outside terms that she then goes on to describe just to go back to her main point?

No Calvinist ever believed their accumulation of wealth or worldly success was a sign they were saved. That's absolutely absurd. They found assurances of salvation in many other ways.

What will happen in society when the overwhelming amount of wealth in the economy will be created by machines, not people? All due to AI and the increasing automation of society.

Um. Aren't we supposed to listen to symbolic interactionism here? The video was great but I felt like something was missing
