Glad you're covering the trivium, I've been devouring everything trivium on KZbin lately. Stoked!

@cheri238

Thank you, again, Professor Wes Cecil for your lectures.

@AustinStarr191

What a treasure you are in my life. Wow! I listen to your lectures over and over. You are “just the best.” Philosophy wise, an unsound statement but yet somehow also so true! Go figure.

@OrdnanceLab

Always glad to see new videos from you pop up in the feed.

@LowIiet

Very insightful video, thank you so much!

@JeromeSolberg

A fantastic analysis. Thank you.

You’ve spoken elsewhere about the myth of race, and a dimension I thought you would include here is the use of ethno-religious tropes, and not only by demagogues, in populist politics. Milei targeted Black Argentines, denying their membership in the national identity. In Donald Trump’s third campaign he is talking about “poisoning the blood.” I also think of Erdoğan’s project in Turkey and Islamic identity, the dispute over Ukrainian identity as presented by leaders in Russia and Ukraine, etc. These appeals are effective and seem highly relevant to this discussion. It’s not just economic and political discontent.

This was absolutely not a topic I thought Wes would bring up. Of course he is able to handle it with the deftness and depth of insight that he brings to every topic. Yet another slam dunk!

@gpalmer456

Thank you, Wes.

@CarloFromaggio

Thanks yet again Wes.

Good analysis from inside the cave, is still from inside the cave.

@Petelmrg

Thank you for a this - living in the UK I can confirm that Brexit was totally bone-headed and as far as I know the first time that a Country has voluntarily signed an agreement to put sanctions on itself.

@BartAnderson_writer

You explained well. Can't really get to the bottom without drawing upon the traditions of democratic socialism. Otherwise it's apolitical floundering.
