Why Hegelians love to say “Always Already”

Hello everybody, today is like to talk about why Hegelians love to use the expression “always already” and what it can tell us about the relationship of Hegel to Kant.
Thank you for watching. If you’d like to access “the complete guide to Žižek” ebook and my two intro to Hegel ebooks, they’re available on patreon.

Ps: perhaps one of the best know applications of “always already” comes from Althusser’s theory of ideological interpellation: “you are always already that subject.” It’s also quite common in Derrida and Žižek.

I've always already read Hegel.

You can tell the Hegelians by the red bandana and the low rider. Kantians ride Harleys and wear leather.

[@djsjdh-hoahdi]

God I love hegel so much

[@scriptea]

Oh, wild. I *just* finished The Hegel Variations after picking it up from its reference in Less than Nothing's last chapter.

I thought "always already" was an explicit heideggerian term meaning that our being is always already thrown into a world with a pre-existing set of relations and understandings, which shapes our perceptions and interactions with the world before we even begin to reflect on them.

Nice Tech Deck.

nice video as always julian. do you listen to any hiphop?

[@SuperMrdumm]

Good question

[@zamplify]

@@SuperMrdummyou can be sure he has a zizekian analysis of to pimp a butterfly.

I think he likes Eminem.. can't prove it, but I feel it

[@ExperiPuer]

No, the 'thing in itself' is a term from Baumgarten / Meier's metaphysics. Kant simply criticizes their concept. He himself does not know a 'thing in itself' in a positive meaning, only after-the-fact object concepts abstracted from the sensuality.

[@michaelwu7678]

Yes, thank you. Noumena for Kant is a limit concept (Grenzbegriff) not actually anything beyond.

[@germanndskartenfreak]

this is literally a translation of a tweet by daniel pascal zorn, isn't it?

[@ExperiPuer]

@@germanndskartenfreak yes, should have quoted him :)

Could you do a video on the idea of symptomatic readings?

[@zamplify]

I got it from Adi Da Samraj.

[@grosbeak6130]

You got what from the guru, an STD? 😆
But seriously, you're making an assertion willy-nilly. Good for you.

[@user-wl2xl5hm7k]

This is actually way more a Derrida thing

[@DelFlo]

I thought all Continental philosophers did 😅😂

[@MegaLozenge]

Somewhere around the age of 21-22 I got Hegel.
Then I got stoned, watched this video and got Hegel all over again.
Now I am haunted 👻

[@yerauldda4909]

This is an odd one, since the phrase was popularised by anti-Hegelians like Althusser and Derrida, (who took it from Heidegger, not Hegel)

[@hugopereira2883]

I was also under the impression it was Heidegger's influence. Not sure about this one.

[@Rivulets048]

Philosophy is such a weird social sphere 😂

[@roderbergis4038]

Are you actual fluent in german?

[@tommy2nes]

I can’t follow this at all

[@unknowninfinium4353]

Because they dont know the meaning of 'Aufhaben' and still figuring out what Zizek says which he too cannot get what 'Aifhaben' really means.
In single words - Who knows?
I always like to say - Garbage in, Garbage out.
Mines lot simpler...

[@grosbeak6130]

Julian's utter and complete favoritism if not fetishizing of Hegel and his philosophy is suffocating at times. Talk about confirmation bias and tunnel vision ad infinitum.
Hegel always has the last word here where every other philosopher comes up short, which is getting boring and at the same time a form of dogma.

[@Rivulets048]

It's his channel
Did you not come to the video to hear his thoughts on hegel?
