Half way through and I realize he is saying "distorted" and not "destarted". 😊

Mark tells us Jesus said nothing to his disciples except in parables.

The will to power (German: der Wille zur Macht) is a concept in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. The will to power describes what Nietzsche may have believed to be the main driving force in humans. However, the concept was never systematically defined in Nietzsche's work, leaving its interpretation open to debate. 🎯

I just met you and this is crazy. I'm grieving you. What a loss, my heart aches.

Bad idea to ask a 7yr old the Socratic question of what they wanna be when they grow up during Christmas dinner for many reasons.

One of my favorite lines in "The count of Monte Cristo" is when the Priest says "I'm a priest, not a saint"

I have to laugh and criticize myself. I'm American, but did the sort of traditional ivy league upbringing and I'm a native New Englander. So I have a built in prejudice against southerners (again, I'm criticizing myself here). So it took me a while to settle in on this video and take him seriously. Actually, I quite like his attitude on the subject matter here; by attitude, I mean literally the direction from which he approaches it. Nice video.

Rick talking about how scared people are of indefinite meaning resonates now in relation to gender & patriotism just as it did then.

Applying these ideas day to day in his job Can be attuned to technology as a natural way of things Appreciation of mechanics Excellence/quality - the writing comes before the standard/criterion. Is it pre-intellectual though? You have to understand it's a language/an essay which is intellectual (I don't think that's what he means, it's more conscious (ah yeah linguistic/thinking) when I think of intellectual) Language doesn't map onto essences in the world. Abstractions are pale to the real experiences

Gosh, guys, be serious…

Love Roderick’s teaching of philosophy.

What does it mean to be human? It means to be 'of the humus', 'of the soil'; it means to be aboriginal. That was easy wasn't it. What you have these days is not Human but post-human and thus posthumous (exiled from Nature and the soil), and thus dead. The Human is dead in other words.

There was a rule. Male sadism. Moral philosophers who are entirely men engage in conversation that has its own blind spots. The Magus discussion provides a brilliant example of this. If you need another thick, real life example, see MAGA, USA, 2024.

The study of dog whistles... anyone can interpret a piece of work with any reinterpretation they want. But you gotta back it up

I haven't read the book but his work on the history of these ideas seem wrong and lacking. Based on this interview he seems to trace CRT back to Foucault and post-Modernism and did not mention David Walker, Du Bois, or Alain Locke who discussed race being socially constructed decades before Foucault. He seems to have not engaged in any serious genealogy of these ideas from Black thinkers and just claims historically most Black Americans agreed with Obama. Ummm...OK Also, he positions the idea that racism in 2023 is the same as 1953 to showcase how ridiculous these ideas are yet empirically the white-black wealth gap is larger, the white-black homeownership gap is larger, the labor participation gap is larger, the life expectancy gap is about the same, residential segregation is worse than 40 years ago, and Black American men are the most highly incarcerated population on Earth. Also, there are several studies that show how Black students have higher self esteem, mental health, and better coping mechanisms when put in an environment that is predominantly Black versus predominantly white. I avoided this episode because almost every single critique of "Identity Politics" is mundane and uninteresting and this one lived up to my expectations

Who has time to try to learn something from such an obviously biased professor?

Good one

My dream is the get Rick very drunk and have him interview Eckhart Tolle. #ANewEarth

Finally some critical theory type stuff. Much better than books on bourgeoisie bean farmers.

Descartes - free flowing consciousness. Hegel - a subject of collective, from their perspective (tension between the two) See existentialist as too neitzche (philosopher of tyranny - to be slave or tyrant). Instead trying to find a way out of this (ethical) Wrong to apply one universal value to all humans, although values come from the will (Kant) admittedly Humans make themselves a lack (related to desire) so there might be being (consciousness as lacking). The mistake is to set an absolute end though (willing freedom is the more important thing, nothing as essential like a certain project). - Counter to being Christian idea of being incomplete and being complete by being with God. (Not respecting your freedom under existential interpretation, being seen as means). God - trying to make for itself/in itself as one.

This conversation is the partially examined Merleau-Ponty. It’s like attending a seminar where no-one has read the book because the book they need is Phenomenology of Perception and what they’ve read is fundamentally derascinated from that work, so it’s just guesswork.

Good one

Please, please, please, please listen. I beg of you.This is the writing that I have devoted my entire life to. I am a reporter for a weekly magazine.There are legendary people in Japan who are famous for having suffered social persecution. The period of persecution was long, and the psychological damage was no different to that of war victims.They were writing novels , had lion-like faces, and quit their jobs when they were young because they got emotional.　My name is KOREThey were really, really cruel to them, and to their families.Those who have truly persecuted us are below us.There are two reasonsThats because the fact that those who have been persecuted and their families are struggling to survive is more amazing than the persecutors and their families. Imagine the image of war victims struggling to survive. They are strong and wonderful. It is more amazing to see the image of those who kill people in war and their families (those who persecute others and their families) alive.Also, those who suffered social persecution in Japan were the cause of the self-destruction of those who persecuted them. He is a rare historical figure. He moved Japanese society, culture and people like a nuclear bomb (really, its amazing). This is because he was cared for by many people in Japan, including people with high social status who are connected to the mass media. There really is no such figure in any other country. In Japan, he is the most famous. Truly, truly, he is like a legend.They were writing novels, had lion faces, and left their companies young and emotionally.　My name is KORE, and I am a social persecutor in Japan.JAPAN KORE KORE　Legend Legend JAPAN KORE KORE (Even in the thoughts of most persecuted people, there are persecuted people and their families who are not the subject of writing) Legend The most famous! Legend! Legend! Legend!　 Thank you. If you have any questions, please reply. If you have any thoughts, please send me a message.

Well I’m early today

Interesting, some good points. Too bad his politics influenced him so much here. It blinded him and probably the demonizing of the right and glorifying of the left turned some or even many off.i do not think using movies was the best way to go since people realize movies are not real and they are not really going through an apocalypse and their lives are not really in danger. They like to see people die from a distance as a Tool song says. When people really die it is much different. I have seen many die as a hospital chaplain. It is not like a movie or tv drama.

Love seeing more Marx on this channel

This podcast rules I'm a college freshman and love you're doing more marx.

Take a dayum Valium!

Hell yeah so happy to see you guys doing Marx again.

Well, alienation exists/occurs not only in capitalist economy as seen now.

Very interesting, although he clearly doesn't understand Christian Theology. I still appreciate his knowledge and explanations.

This was really great, looking forward to listening to more

Plato speak a noble lie and dragged human beings towards degenerate culture of religion. He hated material philosopher s,poets and musicians and laid down the foundation of ontological argument with led humanity toward scholastic philosophy which justified Christianity. Plato philosophy in otherworld systematically made possible Dark ages.

Fantastic presentation.

2:33 I think this comment on relativism is only true at the extremes. It’s not that intentional lies are equal to attempts at empiricism, but every interpretation is equally wrong in that none are actually right.
