- Anybody studying early 20th century models of creativity?
- GenghisKhan: do you believe in diversity?
- I would like to improve my understanding of the times in which diversity is useful, and the times it is not useful

- everyone doing the exact same thing at the exact same time in the exact same way
- also all white
- +GenghisKhan
- i believe diversity is a thing that exists
- +NalaniEkewaka
- I was reading about the new elements named
- One is called eka-lead
- I wanted to understand why it's called that
- To give provisional names to his predicted elements, Mendeleev used the prefixes eka-, dvi-, and tri-, from the Sanskrit names of digits 1, 2, and 3, depending upon whether the predicted element was one, two, or three places down from the known element of the same group in his table. For example, germanium was called eka-silicon until its discovery in 1886, and rhenium was called dvi-manganese before its discovery in 1926.
- Now I know
- GenghisKhan: those against diversity focus on the times it creates problems
- +GenghisKhan
- my understanding is naming rights goes to the group the discovers it
- +NalaniEkewaka
- Those for diversity seem to always extol its value
- A real model of diversity will allow us to understand and predict the times when it is useful and the times when it is harmful
- GenghisKhan: I am simultaneously engaging in multiple threads
- I would prefer you focus on the diversity thread, though
- Unless you feel you're up to the challenge of engaging in multiple thread simultaneously whilst maintaining exceptional quality
- For example, both Karl Popper and John Rawls spoke, in part, against ur-diversity
- Karl Popper spoke of the harm of tolerance of intolerance and how it would collapse a democracy
- John Rawls, in his overlapping consensus idea, also perceives diversity on some aspects of life to be unacceptable
- So, no diversity on the idea that "speech which causes you emotional discomfort should not lead to violence against the speaker" allows for all the diversity of ideas
- If you throw in that last little bit of diversity then you lose the rest

- Trumpism is a deeply anti-intellectual movement that is focused on otherism and a small spectrum of the human emotional palette -- notably rage and fear
