I’m trying my ass off to enrich myself, but it’s so hard with watching my kids during the day and welding at night. The best I can do is read a little bit here and there and rely on videos like these in my ear at work. Sincerely, thank you.
I appreciate this nice video that you made, Julian, but I take issue with your interpretation of loving your neighbor. You're right in saying that love your neighbor works because your neighbor is the horrible unknowable beyond. And that's the issue. You don't love your neighbor by realizing they're a person just like you. A real person with a heart and a soul. I think Zizek specifically warns against this thinking. He mocks the idea that a stranger is a person whose story you haven't heard. The injunction to love your neighbor means to love them in their otherness, to give up the idea you could ever relate to them. The same thing goes for loving your lover.
Now, what this means in practice, how to serve them and form reciprocity with them without any assumptions of their kinship to you, I don't actually know
Interesting parallel that in Greek mythology Eros(love,sex) is the child of Ares(war,courage, violence) and Aphrodite(love,sex,pleasure,desire). In a sense, desire combined with violence produces love.
A more revolutionary concept of love-piggy backing on agape-is to love all, to love joy and pain, sunshine and rain. The idea that live is violent, the insular idea per se, is that love is abnormal. Where love is the norm, falling in love with a specific human isn't against anything, Rather it's in accordance.
I listen to these streams during my hikes in the woods. I really shouldn't because I live in bear country. So if I'm ever eaten know two things: 1) it's your fault and 2) it was worth it.
Needs a bit more volume. Not your hair, that already has enough, your voice in the video, had trouble hearing you without turning the sound up all the way.
@@goddamtinternet Its a joke that was mentioned multiple times, that his hair behaves unique for the most part. And its not the first video i watched, but the first i can remember that has such low volume, it is intended as constructive criticism, just saying.

love is to give somebody something you don’t have and they don’t want

Conditional love is equality and unconditional love equity..
We must love the xenonmorph

Man talks for half an hour on the meaning of love and somehow the man's hair makes an impression worth noting back.. lol so turn it up Just saying 😅
