Today's culture has severed meaning from agency.

Today's culture is hostile to the idea of agency, and comfortable with the ideas of determinism and of existential victimhood.

Instead of "thanks" you should have closed with "meh" and just leave. Great lecture otherwise!

Thank you for the review, but I'm definitely going to avoid this author. Of all literary devices, a protagonist without agency is the one I regard as most revolting.

I get your point. I'm still not sure why I keep reading new books of his. I wouldn't say it's a guilty pleasure, as it's not really a pleasure, but they do have their moments and insights.
