Fixing Cultural Theory

Today is the last day of classes. This semester, I took sociology and focussed on modifications of Grid Group Theory as explained by Thompson, Ellis and Wildavsky. They put drop outs in what is called the Fatalist way of life. In Sociology, these people are non-conforming individualists - which is also where we find the sales, CEO and small business class - but not the working class. Both Individualists and the Working Class (who want stuff, not Revolution or a place in the Management hierarchy or the obligation to sell stuff).

This is the topic I addressed in my class on Inquiry - which produces a dissertation grant proposal on MAGA as a Sectarian Way of Life - along with Egalitarians. Sectarianism is where they bump heads - or in sociological social psychology terms - battle with people of equal status. - the Democrats and Republicans. Wildavsky ignores MAGA because it did not exist in his lifetime. Now that the Tea Party and MAGA have become science deniers (evolution, the need for gun control, wearing masks and getting the jab - not to mention storming the capital, the only place to put them is the radical class, in an intuitional group acting based on feelings rather than thinking, authenticity rather than compliance, attitude rather than competence. Michael Thompson has already written the book on science denial. My task is to prove his point for our fellow cultural theorists - using the January 6th riot as the example to be researched.
