Fanon vs. Hegel

[@bravovince3070]

Deleuze declaring "there are no more masters, only slaves controlling other slaves" makes a lot more sense after watching this

[@tcmackgeorges12]

That’s because unlike most of the other Post-Structuralist Deleuze actual read Fanon

its weird how extremely intelligent people often still think in these extremely narrow universalist frameworks where everyone is expected to act in one way or another based on their role, as if people arent all different in their personality and will not react drastically different from one another based on their roles or environments.

@@akashp01 the idea that someone in a slave role necessarily views himself as something which needs to transform into something better, rather than feeling so locked in place that they dont interspect anymore. or that a master thinks of himself as a finished product rather then something which needs to improve in order to be deserving of such a role. these things can be flipped around depending on the type of person or time or place or culture they are in. yet very often very smart people desperately want to create a single overarching narrative to define people and their relations in.

David refutes Hegel's conjecture with example of masters who "...enslave people to attain a higher order of being." Sounds frighteningly alienated to me. Unless this is a higher order in the sense of the material conditions necessary to reproduce their horrible selves. And an elaborated culture that supports their evil. That would Fanon's sense, would it not? The material conditions that liberate the individual from Marxian "necessity" and enable individual choice, and freedom. And yet the rulers are also ruled by necessities of a different kind. The alienation, trivial pursuits, and distorted apprehension of reality are what Hegel is referring to as the natural oppression of the master. It's spiritual alienation.

We really need to just abolish the subject/object relation and self identity already. Hegel was wrong, this has caused nothing but harm.

English is based on duality and so is its logic. The western world has no idea of the Two Truth Doctrine.
