I know this video is old but please keep making more philosophy videos I need more good philosophy KZbin channels to watch there’s not a lot

[@glasselevator]

Thank you! New video in a few weeks :)

[@DnBComplex]

I swear to god u had 550k subs. 121? You need more exposure, this is the thing the internet was made for. Instead of an introdutory book, i can watch your videos as an introduction to better understand it, for example. thx a lot.

[@glasselevator]

Thank you!

[@turpinglipper9171]

Great work, thanks so much. Great to have these complex thinkers ideas bought down from the clouds and explained clearly. Cheers.

[@Bakmoon]

Very high quality explanation. Keep up the excellent work.

Based New KZbin Account.

[@presentbuilder5655]

Hey, similar to your video criticising Hick’s view of Kant, maybe you can cover the KZbin channel King Crocoduck’s content on the science wars? Or perhaps the science wars as a whole? Edit: Spelling error

[@glasselevator]

I'd definitely be interested in learning more

[@thebigcapitalism9826]

Excellent video! The scientism that pervades our cultures in the West especially is very obnoxious at best and stifling at worst. This video cleared some things up for me. I will be watching this channel with great interest!

[@Burubrikoos]

This is a really, really good video. Thanks so much, I'm currently reading Chalmers and this helped a lot. I'm curious, what kind of vids are you thinking of making in the future? (Since your vids are numbered)

[@glasselevator]

Thank you! Right now I'm finishing up my philosophy degree so I am mainly focused on philosophy stuff. I'm working on a comprehensive presentation of the political philosophy of Michel Foucault and will likely do at least one video on Kierkegaard (which is the focus of my current thesis). The numbers are just for my own personal aesthetic reasons😅

[@Burubrikoos]

@@glasselevator that's awesome, looking forward to it! And good luck with your degree, what is your thesis about? Foucault as well?

[@glasselevator]

@@Burubrikoos It's on Kierkegaard, Bernard Williams, and Pavel Florensky

[@Burubrikoos]

@@glasselevator cool :)

[@James-ll3jb]

Why is Peterson made synonymous with "chaos theory and math"???

[@glasselevator]

That was just a joke due to his use of the word "chaos".

[@Phi792]

Subscribed, I am looking forward to your content! :D

[@DarkSkay]

Thanks! I'm looking for opinions on the following, quite unusual statement+question pair: "The number of questions one can ask about the world is astronomical. How can {a piece of software} contain all those questions?"

Nice

[@mark4asp]

Everyone seems to have a different definition of postmodernism, which varies depending on whether one considers oneself for or against. mod, pomo, pre-modern or re-modern, ... Very few call themselves pomo but many more seem eager to apply the label to others. But - if barely anyone is actually standing up to fight for the pomo standard then isn't it a somewhat fake label - applicable to history - not to the now?

[@glasselevator]

Great question. You are definitely right that the label is controversial. Maybe it would be more accurate here to speak about Lyotardian science? It seems like he may have been one of the more eager philosophers to accept the label although I do know he wasn't friendly to his own "The Postmodern Condition" later on. I also think it can be harder to pin down in philosophy rather than, say, the arts.

[@mark4asp]

@@glasselevator I was under the impression that Lyotard was one of the few to call himself AND his contemporaries postmodern. One can label people as such but if they don't accept your label what to do do? Fredric Jameson labelled ideas, things and processes "postmodern" but not himself. I doubt Michel Foucault or Jacques Derrida ever applied it to themselves either. Where's the evidence?

[@mark4asp]

@@glasselevator I doubt Derrida's différance idea is accepted in either linguistics or philosophy. I don't think Foucault's 'microphysics of power' is a thing in political theory; and his historical method did not revolutionize history. So I'm rejecting their main claims. What's left for me to take from pomo?

[@mark4asp]

@@glasselevator I accept the label when it's applied to art and culture (whether or not the artist accepts it). Also, philosophers who apply this label to themselves are pomo. But that all-encompassing thing the academy sells to its students - a "postmodern age" = unconvinced here.

[@gerardlabeouf6075]

Very interesting

[@gerardlabeouf6075]

Amazing

[@martinarreguy2984]

Giordano Bruno figured out the universe a couple of hundreds before Copernicus and Newton without a telescope; purely upon compilation and observations! Scince today has become a palor game drowning in dogma and financed results.

[@youngslimemillionaire]

Super Duper Awesome

Always good

[@Drforbin941]

[@MegaSudjai]

"Postmodern" and "Science" is an oxymoron.

[@agens2416]

Amazing work!
