Yeah it's a shame really. I get what the intention is but when it doesn't come off it feels worse than if it was never tried at all. I guess it's harder to do when the belly of what you're doing is theory but charity aside if it doesn't work it doesn't work

thinking on it more this sounds like the most damning part of your critique - the very name of this loose group of philosophers is an inaccurate appropriation. as youve been suggesting, they are a new generation of Integralists who are distancing themselves from their lineage with a trendy name, but not in substance, and barely in style. it kinda feels brutal, but necessary.

thanks for all your insights in these critiques, gives me a lot to chew on for my own development.

well to be fair it's not all of them but there's definitely a heft dose of Integral DNA in the movement. I do want to highlight a version of Metamodernism I am partial to which doesn't stands aside from this strain. Glad the series is helpful for someone else тАФ in large part it's been an attempt to articulate my own discomfort
