The complete, month-long tribute to Jeff Coulter. Thanks Phil, for making some of Jeff's extraordinary writings available to a broader readership

Phil Hutchinson @philhutchinson.bsky.social · May 31

Today I posted the 31st & final entry in a thread commemorating the work of Jeff Coulter, following his death in April. While not an exhaustive list, I hope it offers a sense of Jeff’s distinctive contribution, combining Rylean OLP with EMCA.

Made a thread of this, so it's easier to read

I moved from philosophy to psychology in 2018. In philosophy these kinds of arguments & debates are what you're trained for & do. It was a culture shock when I arrived in a psych dept. Critique, debate & argument were depicted as rude & undermining.
