Oddly enough, because I feel like you actually have to have autism in order to follow what he's saying.

idk if you mean something that goes over your head and makes you feel stupid, but i felt like the last quarter or so of Bro by Sorokin was actively making me stupider in reading it

I think it is. Whitehead was known as a mathematician, so it is philosophical ideas laid out with mathematical forms. I like a lot of the theologians he influenced, but I can't stand to read him.

I've been hoping to read this soon. Does it hold up? Has Whitehead's theories been refuted?
