I used to like some of Pinker’s ideas, but yeah. This whole article is just unprincipled garbage in 2026. Neuroscience caught up. Advocating Trivers’ now is nonsense. Interestingly many thinkers of that same era (e.g Krishnamurti, Bohm) were staring right at the modern neuroscience lens and explaining it pretty accurately in the same era Triver’s wrote his essays.
