Setting the Stage for The Great Epistemic Swindle Chapter 1.2 of Counter Wokecraft describes the Critical Social Justice (CSJ) perspective and the main elements of its worldview, essentially its epistemology, metaphysics, ethics and political project. Epistemology is the branch of philosophy that deals with what we can know and how we can know it. This post is the first of two describing the Great Epistemic Swindle that I believe we’re living through, as well as the main causes of that crisis: the Critical Social Justice perspective; and the lack of political and ideological diversity in our universities and the media. In a third post I'll discuss what should be done to counter the swindle.
