When you said that violence changes how we see the world, I started thinking about how people feel very threatened when you confront them simply with different ideas and they take it so personally that they feel you attacked their personal integrity
Hello Julian! Very curious and thankful if you can make one of these short video explainers for why Lacan argues sexuality is impossible to ground/root given their are no fixed signifiers for masculinity or femininity; that is, why with the introduction into language, isn't sexuality able to maintain its natural basis? I assume it has to do with the death drive (such as internalizing norms of when and where to use the bathroom that goes again 'natural instincts' of animals to defecate anywhere they choose) that emerges via human language which denaturalizes us. If this is the correct interpretation, what is it then about signifiers and the death drive we follow in the symbolic order, that can't maintain the natural a priori sexual instincts humans once had prior to language?
Nice, thanks. And, i can see that you are not getting as much views, but continue doing it in a way that you will like it even if it doesn’t get anything from anyone.
Really a fan of the amount of videos in addition to the ones on mondays. Already my fav youtube channel but I am worried that quality will lower over the longturn by this frequency. Quality > Quantity, not that I would complain...
1:13 I have made it thus far. I'm not sure what will be said in this video but before I go on...Two of the main building blocks of the truest of true love are vulnerability and empathy. To love you must be willing to open yourself up and dig through your layers of what makes you, you. You must be able to feel what the other is feeling, deeply. You must be willing to be hurt. Society tells me that they should keep their feelings inside bc that's what men do. They play on men's emotions making them think to feel and to tell how they feel is showing weakness. Women are more gentle, more endowed in their emotions and their feelings and willing to put their heart out there. But women telling their all seem to them like their struggles and emotions are falling on deaf ears. They hear us, but don't know how to describe their struggles and their emotions and their feelings. Then you end up with some silly quote about not being heard when you did bear your feelings so you stopped expressing your thoughts. I hate the way society tries to manipulate people how to think. Sorry for the run-on thought... it's been bothering me quite a bit.
Isn't Zizek seeing love as a simple ideology? If we reduct romance, it is just a intelectual and phsycological form to understand a interpersonal relationship, and for it to be so important to be considered a rebelion to our reality, would leave it as the same sentiment as patriotism or any other ideology. The only difference I can find right now, is that love is personal enough to be present even in this post-modern times, though that seems to be changing.

I love that these lectures are becoming more and more accessible.

I often use Zizek's ideal date for myself.
No takers yet
They always say 'love hurts'.. and it does, but it flirts first, with your pain.
Acceptance of love is a moving event..
Thus to remain unmoved is give with receiving
Thanks, Prof. Julian! I've always watching your new upload. I appreciated your efforts.
Thank you for your videos. Incredibly thought provoking and well explained.

hey man... you got the Easter Lindt bunny as well😃😃😃😃
On a break with my lover. If only he’d join me in the hall and read with me... all will be well again.
Nice, thanks.

I would play two audiobooks to themselves and opened up a video with Zizek :)
thank you, great video as always

king can you do more freud stuff
Does somebody know in which books Zizek weites about love without the fall?
The perfect date is where we split the bill or she pays for the whole thing
are you unproblematic generally because if so man u r my idol
unproblematic is a weird way of putting it. hes a good guy
He is philosophically insightful without losing a down-to-earth decency many seem to lack today.
