Political Philosophy: the State of Exception

[@sansalgungorgumuspala2684]

Wowe, years later, within these corona days i turn back to this video just to see how state of exeptions begin for nearly every nation..

[@Nkanyiso_K]

As they say in Animal farm, "We're all equal, but some of us are More equal"

[@BirdKeeperToby]

Superb, simply exquisite.

[@NawidN]

You actually like philosophy? That's amazing!

[@michaelhand8771]

Everyone else goes to the Political Graveyard with -1000 life points

[@vidhyagokhe7477]

Hey Olly, your channel is great!

[@thisaccountisdead9060]

I'm sure I'm not the first to ever say this (though it couldn't have been said 10 to 15 years ago) but it is kind of amazing that kids these days can grow up with social media and interact with people from all around the world - that has got to be a good thing. Before social media, really the only way to meet people from different countries was for someone to get on a plane and spend time in another country - this is something I did... I still think though that you are more likely to come across people like yourself on the internet, whereas if you actually go to another place then you are more able to see people from different walks of life, which of course you can do in your own country....

[@Owlpunk]

Mh yes, splendid!

[@PhilosophyTube]

Your picture of Worf continues to be the best

[@AMBhanBam]

This brings back memories. Missed Gentleman Thinker :P

[@camilamartinezv2277]

Hi from covid-19 (state of exception) times

[@LeBonkJordan]

the police:

[@Mad_S]

This video makes me yearn for yorkshire tea, I can't quite place why though.

[@pastelshoal]

Olly, I think these would be 100x better if you actually dressed up. Like, monocle, top hat etc. It would be pretty funny.

[@PhilosophyTube]

That would kinda defeat the purpose of the Gentleman Thinker series though, which is that they're quick and easy to make so I can make them in advance and release them over my holidays :P

[@creshiell]

Philosophy Tube at least be the gentleman thinker for halloween! you see it'll be great cause no one will get it and you'll keep having to explain it, bringing up your channel over and over again until you're too embarrassed to do it again so you'll just tell everyone that you dressed up as Donald duck's rich uncle but lost the duck bill during the night. when I say great I mean funny. and when I say funny I mean not for you

[@joelelliott7892]

I like this format. Your channel is a favorite of mine, but sometimes I just want bite sized thoughts. Cheerio, and all that.

[@sheamynoce99]

It's about time you gave Yugioh some b-roll

[@rodrigomedeirosdasilva6915]

0:18 Can someone explain to me what "ordinary rules" means?

[@whyalwaysme2522]

This is an exception!

[@revitellect3129]

Congratz on hitting 100k subs, Olly! Just checked out ur channel after a while. ^_^

[@PhilosophyTube]

Thanks!

[@revitellect3129]

Omg. You replied, senpai! Best day eva! :D

[@Nhurm]

Cheery Oh! Indeed, one must manage the estate however one must in times of, well you know...

[@dford192]

Excellent Yugioh reference.

[@tristragyopsie5464]

short but I feel this should be explored more with specific examples and uses.

[@99themo]

Quite good, ol' chap.

[@larsetom1]

We have been in a state of exception since March 2020.

[@RealCoolCowboy]

Are State of Exceptions predicated solely on war? Are there other instances that would "invite" it?

[@MrPtrlix]

I think there is a law in Canada's constitution, the notwithstanding clause, that allows parliement or local legislatures to not abide by the constitution (lol what?). Not sure if related to this.

[@deadchannel2876]

Yo Olly when are ya gonna do an anarchism video?

[@paradigmarson9586]

I am suspicious that you may have used the image of The USA Patriot Act (0:45 / 1:13) misleadingly; when you showed it I guessed that you were showing it as an example of using The State of Exception to fight metaphorical wars on drugs, terrorism etc. I saw mention of terrorism and drugs, but no evidence of the use of the state of exception to fight them.

[@MindForgedManacle]

Paradigm Arson: Um, isn't the point that the Patriots Act is an example of the state of exception, because it curtails rights for a seemingly indeterminate amount of time to supposedly combat an amorphous. vague enemy?

[@GiegueX]

@@MindForgedManacle and after 3 years, this murican didn't even bothered to reply

[@JP51ism]

So, Giorgio Agamben is on the "Exception" card? He looks like Wallace Shawn's evil older twin.

[@f.b.jeffers0n]

So this theoretically could happen?

[@PhilosophyTube]

Has happened, is happening, and may continue to happen!

[@KRIGBERT]

The classic: Hitler in 1933: oh dear, someone's set the Reichstag on fire! Better declare a state of emergency and imprison all of our political opponents indefinitely!

[@kaitlyn__L]

i hate that we literally live in a world of perpetual war now, both with the US&allies "intervening" with foreign countries and these more ambiguous wars on concepts happening in and around our own homes. instead of "wartime rationing", it's just "economic austerity".

[@cameronmartin8521]

Some would say you have a posh English accent even when you don't put it on. Cool bitesize segment though. I think a rule utilitarian would both understand why exceptions might be initially apparently justifiable but fear the slippery slope.

[@jorgedelangel5248]

Hey, it would help me a lot if you guys show me some articles or essays in general referring state of exception. I was considering doing a school project about this.

[@disciple3654]

Sort of reminds me of France this year with the labour law.

[@FishObreedy]

wanna do a collab talking about the infinite?

[@mikesinistar8834]

I thought it said expectations lok kind of ironic

[@zachhaynes6924]

State of Exception OP, State of Exception to zero!

[@blakem.92]

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.

[@streak1burntrubber]

Ah Orwell and the skill he had in filling people with buckets of dread.

[@jamesc140292]

Rather relevant atm

[@Psychedlia98]

Yu-Gi-Oh!

[@CaptainHunt1]

It's a normal spell card, so the fact that it can't be destroyed is redundant!! 😠😜

[@algot34]

Too short!

[@jerrycrawford7688]

This is occurring right now, in 2020, with all of the excessive and never-ending "COVID-19" mandates. The longer this goes on, the more people put up with it given that it becomes the "new normal". A great example is all of the extra airport security after 9/11.

[@katrinetroelsen]

i came here to say just that

[@ΠΑΝΑΓΙΩΤΗΣΠΑΠΑΝΙΚΟΛΑΟΥ-ρ7φ]

FINALLY

[@marcorodvas]

it's basically the purge lol

[@pm79080]

Eyy, Yugioh. lmao! xD

[@eustacebenedictshostacovic4999]

Dude, all of your videos are in a posh English accent, why do you need to specify that these are in one?

[@waytoobiased]

gender-swapped reboot?

[@Joe0Alt]

2nd!

[@mynameis8080]

first!

[@mynameis8080]

I am so proud of myself

[@enfercesttout]

i am so proud of you as well

[@HappyFacade]

Me too. Well done!

[@creshiell]

Yeah yeah yeah! good job, dude!
