Ehhhhh. It’s just my experience but everyone I have encountered quoting Watts in the last two or three years follows someone like Naomi Wolf or James Delingpole or Russell Brand or Tucker Carlson on Twitter. He’s the alt-right geek’s alternative of choice for Chopra.
Isn't this extremely reductive and an instance of the association fallacy? I am going to judge the complexity of your entire person based on one bit of information - whether or not you espouse the teachings of Alan Watts?
Talk about confusing images and ideas of selves, with the people themselves. Quite judgmental, and dare I say, biased, or even prejudiced.
For what it's worth I follow none of those people, so perhaps you ought to revisit your biases and correct some of your priors. Moreover, I began listening to Alan Watts over 10 years ago, when I was into Eckhart Tolle's "Power of Now" and all of that jazz.
But thank you for exposing your innate biases and revealing your priors. It's very illuminating.
