    I love that Zizek always pleads for more time to speak and interact with people. You know that he is there for the discussions and the talks. Besides, I had not heart much of or about Mr. Sloterdijk yet. I interested to read him and hear more of him now.

    Finally a publication on this channel which isn't decades old. I shall listen very carefully whether he has recovered from being a nwo tool of sorts _(even if that be a misunderstanding, but just like with Nietzsche, that is all they want: forms of expression with a 90% likelihood of being misunderstood in favor of their agenda; addendum after finishing the video: he didn't really say much, so hard to tell)_ and how much of his formulative genius is lost when speaking english _(a lot !)_ . I hope this woman isn't going to interrupt much _(after finishing the video I was very pleasantly surprised by her in filling the role !)_ . If this swedish law she mentions becomes the norm everywhere, people like these two might consider holding a dialogue over a coffee table instead of on a stage.
    37:10 - 44:05 This Gottfried Benn's categorization of people into monks and criminals is an extremely helpful sweeping generalization which relieves one, much more than without it, of wanting to convince others of _any_ truth. _Any_ conversation should start with some innocent sounding test questions to determine to which camp the other one roughly belongs. If he is a "criminal" there is no point in talking about _anything_ below the superficiality threshold.

    But not only this. His idea of _a civilisation of culture_ is both at the same time : Intriguingly seductive, but a dead horse at same time. The moment we try to apply the process needed in this case to be started we undoubtedly will meet the full force of resistance of culture and traditions themselves.

      @@farrider3339 You state "Intriguingly seductive, but a dead horse at same time", ok, to be philosophical, this is a sensual expression of a surface level look, wich has its interesting point, but you don´t specify why this is the way it appears to you, so you don´t at least express any self reflection with it and don´t try to explain wich arguments do this to you and why. It´s just stated very broad with no specified context, wich may be fine for art, but not for theroretical discussion.
      Next.
      Wich process? How do you imagine the process of "thinking" (my assumption) of Sloterdijk being applied, again, how (?), "...will meet the full force of resistance of culture and traditions ..." ok, distinguishing between culture and traditions seems prett wrong unless maybe specified and what is this resistance process you are so sure about?
      It´s a lot of variables that actually don´t state a clear argumentation, because of the openness of these words.
      Naturally people are affected by images and I´m not even saying you may not have a point, but it´s not really understandable over a very surface asthetic level.
      I don´t write to dominate you personally, if you can take sth away from what I´m saying it would be the best situiation, pls don´t feel insulted. If you´d like to rewrite your comment with some of those elements, that I´ve mentionend, I will read it and would be a little happy for it, but we will probably still disagree.

  • @AlessioAndres
    @AlessioAndres Рік тому +1

    I don't feel the need to defend the Slavoj's US case. Just because they're deciding what others decided first, and arrange after, social movements to argument the decisions as they've been initiated by the citizenship, it doesn't make you democratic and yes, the end groups of the populous never had and will never have access to the exercise of power.
    He disagrees with the mistifying truth, maybe that was a key to unlock his statement. He's always cunning like that, a psychologist. I appreciate him mostly for that, I can visualise his intentions, which seem too raw to not wear make-up.
    I don't agree with Sloterdyijk's sedimentarian approach, a Nietzschean type of fundamental romantism, but I do appreciate his case. You see, like most things, Truth is a journey, not a destination. You can't anchor yourself in a precise, made of dense matter future and pull your entire weight towards it. You need to sail like a Portuguese towards it and make sure that others can also see the stars you're guided by, and not point only towards the barrels with supplies. Truth looks more like sincerity because truth is the main slave of relevance. A common direction is important but more importantly, a commonly agreed relevance is empiric. That's how I would describe Peter's Truth that is more important than Life. You wanted to look for truth in the past? Yes, I would try self-scepticism without the poetry of the circumstantial present. Conviction is not a good thing if you're interested in the absolutist rhetoric that you should be followed instead of making yourself understood, yet, immaterial conviction is necessary.
    I would dare to say that modernism was never achieved, yet, most people already want to slaughter it. The reductionist side of syncretism dillutes the memory to the point of utter delusion and molests the sceptical method by translating it into eternal leftism. They refute the entire collection of ideas and policies for purely individualistic purposes. What is worse, they're fundamentalising the being and directs the ideological fundamentalism with the attitude that nobody else in the past ever doubted anything at all. For example, I do want to defend myself from the fatality of the identity politics. It is odious to contemplate at the fact that disagreeing becomes illegal again with the disgusting scent of some sort of neo-humanism that tends to protect multiculturalism and kills the human interest. Therefore, it is true that pure behaviourism is the only proposed education by the inherited Victorians, the only proposed virtue being virtuality. Like, the Americans go to the comedy store to laugh, not to get amused. I do fear a pandemic of psycopathical projection, they're not aware sympathy is just that and the lack of empathy.

    Yes, I thought this was quite interesting, although they didn't talk much with each other. Still both philosophers shed one or the other beam of light on some of the phenomena we're witnessing or have witnessed. Great event! Also kudos to the Goethe institute and it's representative. Most recently it was reported that the German government intends to close down some of the world wide Goethe institutes (Bordeaux, Curitiba, Genoa, Lille, Osaka, Rotterdam, Trieste, Turin, Washington D.C.), allegedly or maybe even actually out of financial considerations. What a shame! Now, regarding the discussion section I was unpleasantly surprised that almost all of the questions came from native American speakers. The Slovenian students should speak up also, instead of being so shy; it does not matter that much when you struggle a bit with the language, dear friends!

    31:05 "There were no white people who went to Africa kidnapping their slaves".
    This is false. Europeans absolutely engaged in slave raiding.
    "Why this focus?"
    Because the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade was uniquely horrific. Not only were millions starved or drowned across the Middle Passage, but slaves on American plantations were cut off from their own languages and traditions and could not marry, unlike domestic slaves in Africa, for example.
    "The West was the only civilization which systematically developed a movement to abolish slavery."
    Sorry, also false. Ancient China attempted to abolish slavery at least twice, during both the Qin and Xin dynasties. And many societies, like the Inca, never had slavery.
