Deep dives

Hierarchy and Reactive Forces

The podcast discusses the concept of hierarchy and how it is often maintained by reactive forces. It explores the idea that individuals who adhere to established values may be resistant to change and may view those who challenge the status quo as threats. This reactionary mindset can manifest in various contexts, such as white supremacy, heteronormativity, and capitalist ideologies. The preservation of hierarchy often supersedes the pursuit of equality, and individuals may resist the transvaluation of values to protect their privileged positions. This discussion raises questions about the judgment of values and the role of language in reinforcing hierarchies.
