i have actually seen him mention kropotkin in more detail in a live interview, and he explicitly pushed back against the comparison, and said he wished people wouldn't make it.

i'm not so sure, myself.

again: i know that dawkins will argue the point. it might be useful for him to do so formally at some point, as i'm sure this will come up over and over. but i actually think the ideas are so similar as to essentially be the same thing, despite dawkins' dissent on the point.

(edit: search for dawkins in the text to see why i posted the link, although the essay is worth reading if you have the time. i post critiques in the following posts to this space)
