My first foray into Hegel!

[@levimatthew8911]

Narration is conspicuously superior.

[@erichthor2580]

So, from what I understand about these lectures are really lecture notes taken by his students. Right? What does Hegel mean by this statement: ‘The State is the Divine Idea as it exists on earth ... We must therefore worship the State as the manifestation of the Difficult to comprehend Nature, it is infinitely harder to grasp the Essence of the State" I've seen used in Karl Popper's Book The Open Society and in Peikoff Books Ominous Parallels as "proof" that Hegel was advocated for a totalitarian society. I think lean towards Peter Singers interpretation on the matter. That the above quote is taken out of context. Am I right?

Great reader

3:51:08 here he is defending the October revolution

[@arlieferguson3990]

I suppose the reader must consider Hegel a very lofty character.

Lololol

It's really not hard to see why this was rejected to form the philosophy of materialism.

wdym?

[@surgeland9084]

@@doit3409 Marx is said to have stood Hegel on his head by inversing his hypothesis; rather than ideas and spirit shaping reality, Marx believed that material conditions shaped reality and that ideas and spirit followed.

[@doit3409]

@@surgeland9084 Ok that makes sense. I kind of figured that's what you meant. but I wasn't sure if you were talking about some potentially non-marxist materialism. Or what exactly you meant by rejected such as Marx's materialism not being dialectical. Thanks for the clarification
