Dear Prof Abramo, Thank you so much for all effort that you have put into making this video. You even read the book 15 times. It also teaches me to spend more time reading until getting something from the written text. Your lecture is indeed helpful to digest the concept presented by the author. Thank you for elaborating and explaining this philosophical and deep concept of the writer. Looking forward to listening to the rest of the chapter.
@@SeaphoamGreen All critical theories have a shared goal of destroying the function of society in order to promote their revolution. These revolutions unfailingly lead to authoritarian abusive regimes.
Like most thinkers of this ideological tradition, it creates a really superficial false dichotomy that warps the minds of their its followers to see everything in these terms even if real life isn't as simple. It asserts that the so called oppressed must be first "educated" about the theory. These things rarely are formed with them but by academics. It is very paternalistic about the "oppressed" and rejects gradual changes and instead goes into marxist revolutionary thinking. I also reject the idea of teleological history. It is quasi-religious thinking. Still, it is interesting to hear an uncritical explanation of his ideas.
my friend, you do not have clue about what you are talking, the same way all those so called philosophers. Those are just individual opinions with lots of big words. You need to know how the desire arises, you need to know what is consciousness is and it's function, you need to know the purpose of sense sphere and how perception gives rise to create existence of nothing. Reality is only a Projection of your mind.
@@Verulam1626...I am not a scholar of anything, only book I read from start to end and understood was the " Tipitaka" that is Buddha's direct words put into Pali from Singhalese Auwawa....which I doubt any of the westerners will ever be able to read or even can get hold of, unless they spend lifetime learning Singhalese language to comprehend the words written in Atuwawa...and even then get permission to have access to read it... luckily the Brits didn't find this ancient scripts to loot like the other scripts they looted from our countries.
Fundamental to this theory is that labor (work) is oppression. It further assumes that anyone who is not oppressed is not contributing. Both assumptions are wrong and makes every other thought derived from them fundamentally flawed
James Lindsey's New Discourses has a few veeery detailed videos on his bad ideas and influence. James can sometimes be obsessive about certain ideas and recently went a bit mad by seeing gnosticism as the root of most bad ideas in that realm of thought. The Freire videos are likely from before this. He exposes a lot with direct quotes so it is worth listening

@BeansPredi-ch6xk It's clear you didn't watch the video nor comprehend the whole master/slave dialectic at the beginning of the video. He literally states in the video, "the slaves do all the work."
incredibly helpful, thank you Joseph! It really shows that you care about your students
I'm from the Philippines, and to thank you for the comprehensive contextualization to Freire's literature, Prof. Abramo!
I feel like a vessel that has been filled with the knowledge possessed by my teacher. Thanks!
Very ironic

Thank you so much for this very informative lecture
God bless u ..very beautiful
I appreciate being taught what these critical theories are, but beautiful is not a word I would use to describe these destructive ideologies.
@@travissharon1536 how are these ideologies destructive?

Clearly you know nothing.
Gradual change? You mean change that never comes?

Sure buddy
It is funny how your last sentence is somewhat in line with a part of Kantian thinking that Freire is an heir of.
@@Verulam1626.. please explain to me that funny part, so I can have a laugh😂
