doesn't seem like you made an earnest effort to understand my points. what is your own explanation for why Popperian philosophy has not become more widely accepted? even Brett Hall acknowledges that Popper is "not that popular" among professional philosophers and scientists. he has his own explanation for this [1] but I'm curious to hear yours.

and I know you think this is a digression, and that we should exclusively argue about the philosophy itself rather than the cultural influence of the philosophy, but I just want you to humor me in exploring this question.

Hi Kasra, how nice of you to stopping by! I just wanted to acknowledge the comment and thank you for the question. I will write a reply post, but with my schedule I don’t know when it’ll be up. I’ll reply here with a link once done. Cheers.
