My assumption has been that he's Scottish - he speaks with a Scots accent in video clips I've seen. It's possible not, however.

Link to interview missing[edit]

Citation for Brassier’s quoted comments criticizing speculative realism links to a website that does not appear to contain the interview, and at most does not link to the interview itself. 2607:FB91:89D:CFF5:5D79:8358:8DF0:DBEA (talk) 00:02, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
