Two titanic figures in contemporary theory join us for two separate and strongly divergent episodes on the status of revolutionary thought in political philosophy today. Ray Brassier influenced a generation of philosophers not only with his outstanding and highly rigorous writing, but also his absolutely stunning translations of Quentin Meillassoux and François Laruelle, and in so doing is subcutaneously responsible for literally a decade of earthquakes in the discourse. Ray joins us to evaluate the status of Marx in the 21st century.Ray traces the long arc from Nihil Unbound through Marx, Sellars, and the inferentialist tradition, opening up an unapologetically rationalist framework for understanding both science and emancipation, without reducing either to liberal platitudes or metaphysical fantasies. We discuss the seductive dangers of naive anti-humanism, the legacy of German idealism, the automation of reason, and why political theory today needs to be deeply embedded in materialist accounts of scale, finance, and abstraction. Ray shares a trenchant critique of both the empiricist and idealist strands of Enlightenment thought, offering instead a dialectical, normatively grounded, socially embedded concept of rationality that returns to Kant and Hegel by way of Wilfrid Sellars. We strongly recommend:Ray's book Nihil Unbound: Enlightenment and Extinction His essay “The View from Nowhere”His exceptional piece "Politics of the Rift" on Théorie Communiste in e-fluxWork from the journal Endnotes (https://endnotes.org.uk/)In the episode, we also discuss theorists such as Badiou, Larouelle, Meillassoux, and Marxist reinterpretations by Moishe Postone, Théorie Communiste, and the German “New Reading” school. Ray elaborates on how capital's increasing abstraction—especially in financialized regimes where labor is decoupled from value—is not the end of Marx, but a reason to read Marx more seriously and materially than ever.
Send us a textJoin us for a thought-provoking exploration into the intricate world of French philosophy and its significant impact on leftist thought, featuring insights from our esteemed guest, Jon Repetti of the Five Good Hours Substack and a PhD candidate at Princeton. What hidden influences shaped Althusser's theories, and how did Lacan's medieval Catholic roots contribute to his work? This episode promises to unravel these complexities, offering listeners a comprehensive understanding of how French intellectuals like Lacan, Althusser, Deleuze, and others perceive and critique the state.Our conversation takes a fascinating turn as we delve into the complex relationship between Marxism, existentialism, and psychoanalysis, exploring the critiques and contributions of pivotal figures such as Althusser, Sartre, and Badiou. We question the left's embrace of Lacan and investigate how Lacanian psychoanalysis intersected with Maoist ideologies, influencing French intellectual circles in the post-1968 political landscape. The discussion further explores how these ideas were transformed within American theory, highlighting the challenges of teaching and popularizing French theory within U.S. academic discourse.Unpacking the pedagogical challenges of presenting complex theories without oversimplification, we examine the cultural power and influence of French theorists like Foucault and Kristeva in the American academic scene. Listen as we reflect on the ongoing legacy of French theory, the role of educators in presenting these ideas effectively, and the intriguing cultural dynamics between French and American intellectual traditions. Whether you're a seasoned philosopher or new to the world of continental thought, this episode offers valuable insights into the enduring relevance and transformation of French theory across the Atlantic.

2011 witnessed a resurgence of protest movements from the Movement of the Squares, Occupy Wall Street, to the Arab Spring. These events propelled Marxist intellectuals Slavoj Žižek and Alain Badiou into the limelight, resulting in a surge in their popularity. But was the precondition of their popularity based on the absence of anti-imperialism in their work? In this study group, we examine Losurdo's criticism of Žižek and Badiou regarding how they understand existing state socialism, how they theorize liberation, freedom and justice. We debrief on the text and we discuss how Western Marxism can be reborn.
In Marx's Literary Style, the Venezuelan poet and philosopher Ludovico Silva argues that much of the confusion around Marx's work results from a failure to understand his literary mode of expression. Through meticulous readings of key passages in Marx's oeuvre, Silva isolates the key elements of his style: his search for an “architectonic” unity at the level of the text, his capacity to express himself dialectically at the level of the sentence, and, above all, his great gift for metaphor. Silva's unique sensitivity to Marx's literary choices allows him to illuminate a number of terms that have been persistently, and fatefully, misunderstood by many of Marx's most influential readers, including alienation, reflection, and base and superstructure. At the heart of Silva's book is his contention that we we cannot hope to understand Marx if we treat him as a scientist, a philosopher, or a literary writer, when he was in fact all three at once. Originally published in 1971, this is a key work by one of the most important Latin American Marxists of the twentieth century. This edition, which marks the first appearance of one of Silva's works in English, features an introduction by Alberto Toscano. Alberto Toscano is an Italian cultural critic, social theorist, philosopher, and translator. He has translated the work of Alain Badiou, including Badiou's The Century and Logics of Worlds. He served as both editor and translator of Badiou's Theoretical Writings and On Beckett Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

NATO, 75 yaşına girdi. 75. yaş toplantısının Washington'da yapılmış olması oldukça anlamlı ve mânidâr! Neden peki? Bunun nedenleri üzerinde kafa yormakta yarar var. “İNSAN HAKLARI” SÖYLEMİ, AHLÂKSIZLIĞIN VE TÜKENMİŞLİĞİN ÖTEKİ ADI Gazze soykırımında İsrail terör devletini kınamak yerine destekledi bütün dünyanın lordları, küresel sistemin ağababaları! Küresel sistemin başağababası ABD devleti, bütün kurumlarıyla, İsrail'in yanında olduğunu gösterdi. Bütün o ayartıcı, içi boş “insan hakları, özgürlükler ve demokrasi” söylemlerine rağmen. Yaşayan cins düşünürlerden Alain Badiou'nun Ahlâk başlıklı küçük ama nefis bir kitabı vardır. Kitapta ahlâksızlığı anlatır Badiou: “İnsan hakları, demokrasi ve özgürlükler” söyleminin Batı uygarlığının geldiği noktada ürettiği hegemonyayı meşrûlaştırmak için son derece ahlâksızca yöntemlerle kullanılan ayartıcı, sahte bir söylem olduğunu tartışır sarsıcı bir dille. “İnsan hakları, özgürlükler ve demokrasi” söyleminin küresel sistemin zorbalığını maskelemek için başvurduğu ahlâksız bir yöntem olduğunu gösterir. 75. YIL NATO TOPLANTISI NEDEN BRÜKSEL'DE DEĞİL DE WASHINGTON'DA YAPILDI? NATO'nun tarihî toplantısını Brüksel'de değil de Washington'da yapması pek çok bakımdan anlamlıdır ve üzerinde kafa yorulmayı hak eder: Öncelikli olarak, bu, ABD'nin, Yahudilerin kurduğu ve / veya güttüğü en önemli imparatorluk olduğunu, küresel sistemin merkez beyninin bir yarısını Yahudiler'in oluşturduğunu gözler önüne serer. Diğer yarısı ise İngiliz aklının kontrolündedir.
Professor of Philosophy Jim Vernon joins me for an amazing conversation where we dive deep into the mystical waters of consciousness, the reality of the world around us and how do we even know what we think is real or what we think we see is what we think we see? Is there a place for the paranormal in the world of historical thinkers and what in fact would be some of their positions on the existence of the unexplainable? So fun and inspiring to discuss these things with someone like Jim and I know you'll enjoy his incredible perspectives. Jim works broadly in Continental philosophy, with a focus on German Idealism (esp. Hegel) and recent French Philosophy (esp. Derrida, Badiou, and Deleuze), as well as in political theory, with an emphasis on the organic intellectuals of post-war Black Liberation movements in America (esp. Martin Luther King, The Black Panthers, Malcolm X, and Hip Hop culture). Current projects include a Hegelian explication and defence of the aesthetic and cultural practices surrounding the band Phish, and a monograph on the political theory and practice of Huey P. Newton and the Black Panther Party.No ads when you join the Patreon page! https://www.patreon.com/ryansingerI've got tshirts and posters! www.ryansingercomedy.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/me-paranormal-you-with-ryan-singer--5471727/support.

Chapter 1 What's In Praise of Love Book by Alain BadiouIn Praise of Love is a book by French philosopher Alain Badiou, originally published in 2009. The book explores the concept of love and its significance in contemporary society. Badiou argues that love is an important and transformative force that can challenge the prevailing cynicism and individualism of our modern world.Badiou criticizes the modern notion of love as a consumerist transaction or a fleeting emotion, proposing an alternative understanding rooted in commitment and fidelity. He argues for the revival of a profound and authentic love that is not reliant on personal gain or immediate satisfaction.The book examines the relationship between love and politics, asserting that love has the potential to create social and political transformations. Badiou believes that love can inspire individuals to overcome their self-interest and engage in collective action for the betterment of society.In Praise of Love is both a philosophical inquiry into the nature of love and a political manifesto advocating for the reinvigoration of love as a transformative force. It calls for a rejection of the prevailing cynicism and a return to a more genuine and meaningful conception of love.Chapter 2 Is In Praise of Love Book A Good BookOpinions on the book "In Praise of Love" by Alain Badiou can vary depending on individual preferences and interests. However, it is generally considered a thought-provoking and insightful book on the concept of love in contemporary society. Badiou explores the limitations and challenges of modern romantic relationships, critiquing the prevailing notions of love based on consumerism and individualism. He presents an alternative perspective that emphasizes the importance of collective love, commitment, and fidelity. Whether or not the book is considered good will depend on one's personal interest in philosophical reflections on love and relationships.Chapter 3 In Praise of Love Book by Alain Badiou Summary"In Praise of Love" is a book written by French philosopher Alain Badiou. The book explores the concept of love and its place in modern society. Badiou argues that love has been gradually marginalized and commercialized, becoming a mere commodity rather than a profound and transformative experience.Badiou starts by discussing the historical evolution of love, from its classical understanding as a passionate and all-encompassing force, to its modern portrayal as a fleeting and superficial emotion. He criticizes the current cultural and consumeristic understanding of love, where relationships are based on desire and personal satisfaction rather than genuine commitment and connection.According to Badiou, true love requires a radical transformation of the self and a dedication to the other person. Love is not about personal happiness or fulfillment but about creating something new and meaningful together. It is a commitment that goes beyond individual desires and needs, requiring loyalty, trust, and the willingness to support and care for each other.Badiou also criticizes the prevalent fear of commitment in contemporary society, arguing that love cannot be reduced to a temporary passion or the pursuit of personal pleasure. He stresses the importance of taking risks and embracing vulnerability in love, as this is where the potential for growth and change lies.Moreover, Badiou explores the connection between love and politics, suggesting that love can be a powerful force for social transformation. He argues that love can transcend the boundaries of individual relationships and extend to communities and humanity as a whole. Love is a collective act that can challenge oppressive systems and advocate for...

Hello, you beautiful people and welcome to the Adams Archive. My name is Austin Adams and thank you so much for listening today. On today's episode, we are going to discuss some pretty crazy current events, starting with the North American Grappling Association, also known as NAGA, which is a very well known jiu jitsu Competitive platform for people like myself who basically are, uh, What they're under fire for was the fact that there was a woman Not a woman, a man pretending to be a woman wearing woman face who went and competed against actual women in a grappling competition, a martial arts, a, uh, you know, a literal fight and one, obviously, because It's a man, spoiler alert, uh, so I can actually speak to that. I'm a purple belt in jiu jitsu myself, I've been practicing since 2012. So, we will get into that and why it's so crazy. But, positive note, silver lining here, is that Naga came out and made a statement saying this will never happen again. And they outlined the reasons why and how they're going to ensure that that happens. So, I am... proud of you, Naga. Thank you so much for making it so that I don't have to go compete at other organizations and boycott your shit because I would have. Now, the next thing that we're going to talk about is not too often that two of the things I'm most able to speak to come together and intersect into this platform. Like usually, the things I'm talking about, yeah, I've done a lot of research on them. And I try to give my most non biased opinion on them. But When it comes to two of these things, like jiu jitsu and hockey, I actually have... Much more of an expert opinion than most people. So, uh, hockey, there was a situation that happened in the European hockey league, which was a horrific incident. Now this guy, um, Adam Johnson, I believe it was basically was skating across the ice, had a guy, um, who basically ran into another guy, clipped his leg, his leg went up and sliced his neck. And he ended up dying, which is horrific. It's terrible. Um, It's, it's horrific to see, uh, so we'll get into that and why there's a lot of people, like, a lot of large conservative influencers coming out acting like they're experts in hockey now who are saying, like, some horrific things about the guy who did this, saying that he did it on purpose, that it was murder and this and that, and so we'll talk about that because I don't think that was the case. I watched the footage. Again, played hockey for 18 years, um, very high level hockey, and, uh, I'll give you a little bit of that background, but we'll jump into that. After that, we will get into the next current event, which is about Matthew Perry from Friends Dying. Which is again, terrible. Not trying to start your day off like this. If you're listening to this in the morning, I'll put some positive spins on it for you. Sprinkle some, uh, some, I don't know, some, some, some, some positivity into your day throughout this But there's some weird little conspiracy things that people have pointed out about this that we will talk about as well now, obviously respected guys death and all of that. But there's some shady shit. And we'll get into it. After that, we're going to jump Back into the Israel and Palestine conflict with some stuff coming out of there, including a conversation by Netanyahu, where he says, this is everybody's war. This isn't just my war. This is all of you, because if you don't stop this now and give me your tax money, it's going to come to your doorstep. Tomorrow. So we'll look at that as well as his son skating the essential kind of the draft that's going on over there Where they called all these reservists we'll also discuss the un general assembly Asking for a gaza resolution calling for an immediate and sustained humanitarian truce in which there was only 14 countries who denied it out of almost 140 120 Who agreed with it and 45 who abstained? But guess who was in those 14 countries? Hmm. The United States of America. So we'll look at why that might've been. And then we'll talk about the information blackout, the cutting off of the internet in Gaza and why that might be as well as Mr. Elon Musk coming in with Starlink to save the day and Israel saying there might blow up his satellites or some shit like that. So all of that more. But first I need you to hit that subscribe button, leave a five star review. If this is your first time here today, I appreciate you. You were awesome.

I don't care what it is. Tell me your favorite recipe for Thanksgiving. Who cares? Just write something nice. All right, and without further ado, let's jump into it. The Addams Archive All right, let's jump into it on the very first article that we're going to talk about today is going to be the North American Grappling Association had a transgender man, woman. Man, man, woman, who a man who thought they were a woman who competed in the women's bracket in jiu jitsu now This is horrible out of all the sports that we've talked about whether it be Leah Thomas with swimming or the dudes that were dominating women's Sprints to I don't know all of the crazy things that were going on even chess tournaments like guys were getting in the number insert crazy, ridiculously high ranked person here. And then they went into chess and just obliterated women in chess. It's like, just let the women do their thing, dude, what's wrong with you? Anyways, this is probably one of the worst of them outside of MMA, right? There was a guy who was sitting there gloating on social media, like I need to pull up the posts of this. Because this guy When in, as a biological man dominated these women, I would actually really be interested to see some of the footage because they would have been just amazing if one of these women almost had was able to, because there's some, uh, like I said, so let me give you my background. I've, I've practiced jujitsu since 2012 when I was in the military, there was a sergeant who posted a poster on the wall. And it was a competition that was happening on base at my air traffic control, uh, tech training that I was doing in the air force. And so when I saw that I was like, super interested at the time I had watched, you know, I watched a little bit of Joe Rogan and was really interested in Eddie Bravo and watch some jujitsu at the time, liked the MMA culture. Wrestled a little bit in high school, but like wasn't super good or anything, gotten a lot of fights in hockey. And so I thought I was tough. And so I went to this jujitsu competition with a couple of my friends that was, uh, at the base gym in like a back room where they had all these mats laid out. And I go up to the guy who was staff Sergeant Hawk, shout out to staff Sergeant Hawk. And he's like. You know, I was pretty good shape at the time. I was lifting a lot. All I had to do was lift in the outside of tech training. And so I went up to Sergeant Hawk to sign up and he's like, Hey, man, how you doing? And shook my hand is super nice guy. Love staff Sergeant Hawk. And he basically like looked me up and down. I was like, so you have any training you ever done any wrestling, anything like that. And I told him I did a little bit in high school, maybe two or three years. I wasn't really good or anything, but you know, so he ended up putting me in the advanced bracket. There was a beginner's bracket and an advanced bracket, and maybe there was six, seven guys in each bracket. And just because I had watched some Jiu Jitsu YouTube footage and knew a little bit about every Eddie Bravo and did a little bit of wrestling, I ended up actually winning the advanced bracket. That I had no business being in, uh, but really, to be fair, in 2012, like nobody really knew about Jiu Jitsu. So, um, I ended up winning the bracket, won the tournament, got my very first gi from that tournament. And from then on, I started training, uh, under Staff Sergeant Hawk and out of Dixon's dungeon, which was under the John Dixon in Biloxi, Mississippi, who was fought in the very first pride fights. I actually used to run like a mile and a half, two miles every single day. from base to Dixon's Dungeon right outside of Biloxi, Mississippi. And so, I know a little bit about Jiu Jitsu. I still currently train. I did a tournament, uh, a competition like three months ago. And, uh, it wasn't a Naga tournament. It was a Grappling Industries tournament. Um, but I'm active. I train several times a week. I compete jiu jitsu is like, that's my hobby. That's what I do. That's my thing. So I know a little bit about this shit, right? So when it comes to like a man doing jiu jitsu with a woman, there's a certain level of like, respect that you go into and being you know, in any gym, you're going to roll with women. decently consistently, right? And there's such an obvious disparity in strength. Now, that's not to say that there's not some women out there that will just kick the shit out of most men. And by most men, I even mean men who train jujitsu. Like there's a there's real high level Jiu Jitsu black belt females who will just fuck up a guy even if they train consistently like I've gone with some girls who are just like, you know, would definitely like black belt females that are high level competitors will definitely, I've definitely gone with some women who could Like, very likely beat me in jujitsu, maybe not like, you know, a hundred percent, but like, there's, this is nothing against women's jujitsu. There's some bad ass females out there right now who would just trash me. Um, so when we talk about this, it's like, The way the jiu jitsu tournaments work is there's, you know, there's, especially if you're talking no gi, which is what this would look like, there's like gi, which is where you wear the kimono kind of looking thing, and then there's no gi. No gi is where you kind of just wear shorts and a t shirt, it looks a lot more like wrestling, that kind of deal, so it's just straight grappling. This was no gi. And so when you talk about no gi, usually it's not specifically belt based, where there's like white belt, blue belt, purple belt, brown belt, black belt. In no gi, it's beginner bracket. Intermediate bracket and advanced and beginner is like, you've been doing it for one to two years. Intermediate is you've been doing it for like two to five years, six years, seven years and advanced bracket is like you're a black belt or a brown belt. Um, so I'm somewhere in between there. I'm in the intermediate bracket. As a purple belt, you know, like I said, I started training in 2012 fell off for a little bit, started training back about five, six years ago, been training consistently ever since. Um, but when we're talking about male against female, there's such a, it's astounding how much of a difference when it comes to size, strength, um, agility, like, and, and there's a reason that there's brackets, right? Like for a, and, and, and so in the area that I live in, there's several prominent gyms. One of the prominent gyms that I don't train at, there is a. There is a transgender, uh, man, woman, guy who, male, who is identifying as a woman who is just the biggest, most jacked person you've ever seen in your life. And that individual, like all respect to them, competes, I'm pretty sure, in the male bracket because it would just be so unbelievably unfair. They are just, just jacked. Like, so, this, this situation to me is just such, so indicative of where we are as a culture that this even was able to slip in under the radar. Now, Naga came out because there was such an immense amount of pushback as a result of this. Naga came out and made a statement. And here is... That statement that I'm going to pull up for you. Just give me one second while I do. And Naga said... Let's see if I can... Drag this over to my screen here. All right. So Naga statement around this was, I am Kip Kolar, president of Naga. And I would like to address the controversial issue of transgender athletes competing in Naga events, decisions that involve conflicting rights and needs between different groups are inherently difficult. That said, maintaining fairness for female athletes in our paramount is our paramount priority due to the legacy effects of being. Born male through puberty in parallel with the policy of FINA, the world governing body for swimming, world rugby, and numerous other global sports organizations, male to female transgender athletes who have gone through male puberty are excluded from competing in the female division at Naga events. This position is of course, even more important given the heightened. Potential for injury when grappling. All right. Now, let me read the rest of that for you that I'll pull up from my phone here. So we don't have to mess with this. And it says, cause I reposted this on my story and Naga actually liked it. So again, shout out to Naga. It says, Implementing this policy poses challenges. The registration system used by most grappling events, including Naga, SmoothComp, unfortunately only allows users to choose between male and female genders when registering. It does not provide an option to register as transgender. Ideally, there should be an option in the registration process to declare yourself as transgender. Transgender. We have requested that this change be made in short order. We are a dish. We are adding additional text to the event and rules page of our website, which I'll show you in a second here because they've already done so. And our smooth comp event pages to help inform transgender females which division they need to enter. We feel these additional steps will help to make sure all competitors are in their correct division. If a competitor is discovered to be in an incorrect division, they will be contacted and provided with the option to move to the correct division Or receive a refund just as we do. If there, we were notified that a D one wrestler was in the beginner division. Yeah, because that D one register, uh, D one athlete, uh, wrestler would just smash every single white belt in the division. Now this says moving forward, we will be guided by the science around male advantage and physical performance. Good on them for using the word science. Which will inevitably develop the coming over the coming years as further evidence becomes available. We will review our position, but we believe the integrity of the female category and athletics is one of the most as is the most of the most profound importance. Thank you. Kip Kohler, President, North American Grappling Association. On Naga for making sure that women don't just get absolutely destroyed now like when we're talking about sports when we're talking about swimming it doesn't it's not a matter of life and death right everybody wants to look at you just do it like there's all the there's this category of people with jujitsu is like oh it's not a fight it's not a fight It's a fight. Like this is not, this is not a regular sport because if there is not a ref intervening, when somebody is choking you unconscious and you're tapping and they decide to just keep that choke, what happens you die that you go to sleep and you don't wake up. What happens when there's no ref to intervene when you are in an arm bar and somebody is ripping your limb apart and they shatter your arm or your knee or your shoulder, like. It is absolutely a fight. Like when we talk about hockey, yes, it's a sport. The end result of hockey is a goal, right? Is a winning position within the overall game. It's a game. This is a sport. When we talk about football, the overall win is based on a scoreboard. Right. But when if there is not a ref to intervene, especially when you talk about like Nogi submission only grappling, the only outcome if there is no ref is essentially death. So it's absolutely a fight, right? Like there's no, there's no logical argument to me that Jiu Jitsu is not fighting. Sure. It's fighting without punches just as much as boxing is fighting without submissions. Right. There's only one, then there's only one category that you can call fighting in this MMA. And even at that case, you can't bite each other. You can't hit them in the balls. You can't do all this. You can't even go from a six to 12 elbow strike. So it's like, oh, is that not a fight now either? It's, it's such a silly argument. So anyways, I digress. The idea is that when you go into a fight, it is absolutely unfair for a man to fight a woman based on. biology. We all know that by now, right? When we go even like, even in sports like swimming and running, we've decided that it's unfair. So when you talk about a actual combat sport, where the there is actual consequences where you are going to be choked, unconscious. Or have your knee ripped apart, or your shoulder, or your arms, or your, like, ankle. Like, there's so much that can go wrong here. There's a reason there's weight categories. There's a reason there's male and female categories. There's a reason there's belt categories. You have to maintain the safety of this. And to not do so is absolutely, like, it would be horrific. To not make this an egregious act that is completely condemned by NAGA. It would set such a precedence in the grappling world. And so I am so happy that NAGA spoke out about this. You know you'd never see this in like the larger organizations like ADCC or WNO or like who's number one or anything on flow grappling that you would see. So, to know that There's, there's, there's barely, there's only a few safe communities and it happens to be like the martial arts community is absolutely one of those communities that would just never let this happen. So good on Naga, happy to be a part of a industry, a sport, a hobby, a, a passion that would not allow women to just get absolutely trampled by men because they feel a little. Demasculated today. Alright, so, there's that. Pretty crazy. Glad Naga spoke out about it. Next up is going to be that... So, there was a situation. It was a guy named Adam Johnson. Who recently passed away just over the weekend now. He was a 29 year old hockey player for the Nottingham Panthers. He originally played in the NHL. Um, I've actually been familiar with his name and I, you know, I was looking at his, um, prospect I forget the name of it, but it's like hockey prospects is where you can look up a lot of guys who played where, you know, like growing up. So let's, let's talk, just talk real quickly about my background with hockey. So I grew up playing hockey since I was three years old. I am in an area, a state that is a very prominent hockey state. I played at a very high level up until I was 18 years old, right before I went in the military, um, I went to play, uh, a, in a junior's league, and the day before I was flying out to, uh, a team in Texas, uh, I shattered or destroyed my ACL on a stupid little, uh, basketball game. So, um. Retour my ACL and or in meniscus the day before I was supposed to fly to Texas to go to the main camp for the team that I was going to play for. Um, so again, I played triple A hockey in Michigan, um, all, you know, growing up, played since I was three years old, have a very long standing background playing hockey three, five, six, seven times a week. I was out. Whether it was at the rink, whether it was behind my house on the canal, um, during the winter in Michigan grew up from the time that I was little. The only thing I ever wanted to do was play in the NHL. All right. And I was pretty fucking good. All right. I played for a very, very well known triple a team here in Michigan. You know, one of the best teams in the world. Um, I'm well versed, I'm way better at hockey than I was at jiu jitsu, starting off, so if that tells you anything, right? Even especially if you wanted to like list out the priority of people in the world. So, my opinion on hockey actually has some merit, right? Now, we had all of these conservative influencers, whether it was DC Drano, whether it was, uh, the, the, um, Tick tocks of, or liberals of tick tock, whether it was end wokeness, whether it was, uh, Robert star bucks or whatever his name is, all of these conservative influencers seem to have a very vehement, very serious opinion about this situation that happened in the ECHL, which is the European hockey league. And so this guy, Adam Johnson, again, played in the NHL, played for the Pittsburgh Penguins. For some time in the EIHL, I'm sorry, not the ECHL, the EIHL for the Nottingham Panthers, and let's read this article. It says Adam Johnson, a 29 year old hockey player for the Nottingham Panthers, died in a tragic freak accident on the ice rink while playing against the Sheffield Steelers on Saturday in the UK. Johnson, who played for the NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins before transferring to the elite ice hockey league in August, suffering, suffered a fatal neck injury when he collided with a player from the opposing team midway through the second period. The BBC reports that the injury was reportedly caused by a split or escape blade to the neck. Now, one thing I'd like to point out about this is that the people who were posting this, whether it was, uh, the TikToks or liberals of TikTok, or whether it was, um, DC underscore Drano, just never We're so tone deaf to the situation where it was so disgusting and so gross the way that DC Underscore Drano and liberals of tick tock posted about this guy Dying like they literally slapped the video DC Drano did slapped the video at the very beginning of his Uh, his reels or his, his post and like, it was like, Oh, graphic warning. It's like, yeah, dude, don't post the guy fucking bleeding out on the ice, spilling blood all over the ice. If you respect them, you don't respect them. This dude was just looking for clicks. Drano went about this post. So. They go on there, and, and, and, there's, here's the video here, and I'll, I'll, I, I don't even like watching this shit personally, like, it doesn't, I just don't. Um, but to me, you know, I'll break it down for you, I'm not gonna go very much past it, where you, you literally see him, like, holding his neck as blood is just pouring out of it onto the white ice. I, I, it's just not my thing, dude, like, I'll watch the beginning of it with you and break it down for you. So. Nope, that wasn't it. So they're probably not even going to show it on this post here, but DC Drano did and so I'll kind of walk you through it as I pull it up on my phone. And so DC Drano posted this along with like six or seven other posts that were related to this from other conservative type of influencers. So the guy goes across the ice. There's a two on two going down past the red line right past the blue line and right as he goes down the ice. Uh. The one guy clips legs with one of the other players that are next to him as he goes to to hit him. So there's, um, he misses the, the, like close to the first guy. And sorry, I keep kind of messing this up here on this. I'm watching it. Um, so two guys going on a two on two, the first guy crosses starting to cross at the blue line. And the defenseman goes over and crosses paths with one guy to hit the guy with the park, right as they cross the blue line, which was it. It looked to me like offsides to begin with. Not sure why that wasn't offsides and the ref calls it off. But the, the defenseman, the offside defenseman, um, crosses right across the blue line past the guy that he's next to on the two on two. And let me see if I can, I'm going to actually even just like record this and watch it. Let's see if I can break it down to a little bit of a slower pace. Okay. So I just recorded that. I'm going to pull it over and watch it from there. Cause then I can go frame by frame. So, two on two, two guys in red, they just cross over the red line, not sure why that wasn't off sides, because the guy in white in front of the guy with the puck crosses over the blue line, it looks like, before him, um, he goes to try and, uh, like skate down the blue line as the defenseman comes over and crosses. And he runs what looks like into, let me see if I can zoom in. He actually doesn't make much contact with him, but cross pass with him connects with the first forward. There's not a ton of contact, but the guy's leg comes straight up and gets the forward right in the neck. And when he does this, the guy goes straight to the ice, grabs his neck. And that's where I'm going to stop it. So all of these conservative influencers making these claims that this was intentional, that it was murder, that it was manslaughter, that it was whatever, you have to understand how fast a hockey game is actually Right. So when DC Drano gets on here and he says Adam Johnson was an NHL player who was killed while playing in England at the age of 29, another player's blade hit his neck, slicing an artery media called the incident, a freak accident, but replays show Matt Peck grave intentionally. So I just cannot see an angle here, right? And I don't think there was a ton of contact. Like originally when I looked at this, it was pretty far away. So when I break it down and go slower and zoom in on that, there's not a ton of contact even despite that. I just don't see any single scenario. If you're a player, he could have easily hip checked him. He could have easily just laid his hips out and stopped him like that. He's not gonna fucking karate kick him in the throat with his skate. I wish I could show you guys what I'm looking at here and maybe let me see if I can send this but anyways, there's just no way this was an intentional kick to the throat. I just don't see it. There's not nearly as much contact as I would have thought there was originally, and I'm going back and forth watching this kick. I just don't see it. I don't see how any situation would have caused this to be intentional. So what you're seeing is a bunch of people who don't play hockey, who don't understand how fast the game moves, who don't realize that these split microsecond decisions are the difference between your leg being Three inches lower or three inches higher or you clipping this guy's hip ends up with your it just the game moves so fast. It's the fastest game there is there's no other sport that moves faster than hockey. So you get all these people who don't know how the actual sport works. Or, or even understand the logistics of the game coming out, saying that this is murder, right? Coming out saying that this is manslaughter. And it's it to me, frankly, that wasn't even the grossest part. The grossest part was you have all these people. And when you look at like the libs of tick tock post on this, and now this I will, I will share because this was just like the most egregious thing was libs of tick tock posted this, uh, This meme that they created that said where is it? They must have taken it down. They must have taken it down. Yeah libs of tick tock took that posted down because it was so Disgusting they posted the meme of Petgrave with his leg up saying that what was it was something around along the lines of like Um, that kick wasn't dirty, the kick, and then it had him with his leg straight out and his blade sticking straight up. So they actually deleted it because it was so disgusting. Now I posted on that and said, just talked about my experience in hockey and said that like, this is just disgusting how, you know, it's absolutely not intentional. And like, let's see if that one even went away. Yeah. Wow. Dang. Who'd have thought that lives of tick tock would, would have taken that down because they realized how disgusting they were for posting that gross meme about this dude who just got his throat slit that you saw bleed out in front of the world on the ice. And you're posting a meme with his leg up saying the kick like, Oh, really? He is that. Is that. That's entertainment to you. That's what the people that you, your, your target audience want to see. Wow. At least they took it. At least they had the decency to take it down. Because that to me was probably the most disgusting was. One was, you know, DC Drano actually posting it was disgusting. But them actually, actually, uh, you know, having a silly, gross meme about it was probably the worst thing. So. I don't think it was intentional. I think things happened at a very, very quick pace in hockey. I think that there's a hundred different reasons that that happened, none of which had to do with premeditated or purposeful manslaughter. Okay, and anybody who tells you differently just doesn't understand the sport of hockey, has never touched ice, never played at a high level, never, never found themselves crossing the ice to try and hit some guy crossing the blue line at that pace, like you just, you just don't get it. Um, so. I digress. Let's move on. That to me was very disgusting. And the more that like I'm finding myself distancing myself more and more from like, as we get post COVID, the straight, strict, conservative influencers, because the things that they're keep doing, whether it's about Israel versus Palestine, whether it's about this here that we're seeing, like, I'm just starting to see some of the clickbait, some of the grossness that is coming out of like the strict. traditional conservative movement that I just don't it just does not vibe with me. And so honestly, I've always said that I've always said I'm not just your average, you know, person leaning left or leaning right, I have my own opinions about Basically everything. It just so happens that a lot of it aligns with a certain side at a certain point. And as we get further and further from COVID, as we get further and further from lockdowns, as we get further and further from even Ukraine and Russia, and we see what the, the, the war machine beating the drum is all the conservatives are calling for war against, uh, Palestine and Hamas and calling for us troops to go intervene there. It's like, nah, not me. So let's move on here. There was a conspiracy that came out. So Matthew Perry, the Friends star, uh, Chandler passed away suddenly and horrifically. And so what you saw about that was that basically he died in his hot tub. They said there was no, he had been pretty well known for recently over the past few years of having some type of like drug addiction. Um, and so there was. There was questions around that and the police came out and said no, no, no, there was no drugs found on the scene. There was no foul play reported, all of that. Now what we're seeing here, and again, my condolences to his family, my condolences to everybody that knew him. It's a horrific, public, tragic incident, just as the last one that we talked about. But in this case, there's actually some more deeper questions to be had. So there was something very strange about meth. Matthew Perry's death. The first one being that for a very long time, he hasn't been posting on social media. So I'm going to pull up his social media here. So I can kind of walk you through the timeline of events, but on his social media, he had been posting until seven days ago, very, very little. Now, seven days ago, he started posting. A post a day, essentially seven posts within just a few days. And every single one of these posts had a strange thing about them being the Batman symbol. Now, when you think of the Batman symbol, when you look in the sky and you see the Batman symbol, or you go watch the movies and you see it being displayed, what do you, what do you think when you see the Batman symbol? Well, normally when you see the Batman symbol, you, when you see the Batman symbol, you normally think. It's a sign of distress. So when Matthew Perry essentially posts the Batman symbol seven times over seven days, it starts to raise some questions for people right now. In one of his last posts, in an eerie, uh, is an eerie hand drop, uh, dropping some of what seems to be cranberries on the table with the caption saying, This is what I've had to eat today. I'm Mat Man. And it also says that it's worth, worth mentioning that the lead of the group of the cranberries died by drowning? That's a weird one. So let's see here. I don't know if I see that post with he's talking about here is me. Yeah, this is some super weird obscure posts. It's also noted that the very last chapter of his book was called. Batman. So maybe he just has some weird obsession with Batman. Maybe you know, maybe he was cast in the next Batman. Maybe that's it. But to make things more interesting, his third to last post has again, the Batman symbol with the caption saying, do you know what I mean? So let's, let's like look at this full timeline. April was the last time he posts before the most more consistent posts. The one after that is October 11th, where he said, why can Elon Musk send a woman to the moon and not be able to invent a silent leaf blower? Okay. Super obscure, weird, probably just a random post. Although most of his posts before that seemed like Somebody else is doing them like they're all not off the cuff weird things like that Anyways, he posts himself what looks like picking up leaves. The next post says here is me and my father John both holding a beverage Okay, super tragic to see his dad knowing what just occurred Anyways, the next one says, no need to worry everybody, I've got the streets tonight. This was October 17th. With the Batman up on three different, Batman, like this Batman background up on three different TVs, like one of the Batman movies. Why do you have three TVs in your room? Um, the next one says, sleep well, everybody. I've got the city tonight, Matt man, and it's a post of the Batman symbol. The next one is. Says WTF with a picture that says Batman plays pickleball. Oh, and here's the cranberry one It's literally just a video of him dropping three cranberries on a table and said this is what I've had to eat today I'm Matt man, huh? Interesting in a week ago. Somebody says is his account hacked something feels off his next post after that being October 22nd was a A batman carved pumpkin, which said, do you know what I mean? And again, if you go into the comments of this, a week ago, said, do you want us to send help? Is this your signal? Somebody else said, so Matt, you do know there are a few of us who are a little concerned about you right now. I am hoping you're just having a little silly fun and you're hinting at a new project. Your fans adore you and want you to be happy and healthy. Please take care of yourself. Thanks. The next person said, what's with the Batman obsession? Is nobody going to talk about Bruce Wayne faking his death to live a peaceful life? Somebody said that two days ago. So after he died, um, somebody else said, he said in his book, the day he needs help, he will send a bat signal and no one was listening. Wow. A week ago, you're trying to tell us something. Hmm. A week ago. I feel like you were trying to tell us something. A week ago. Is this some kind of hint? Wow. A week ago? SOS? Wow. This is super weird. Alright, so somebody posted on that and said, If anybody is confused, here's a little information about the conspiracy theories we have. If you have read his book, you may have remembered that he wrote, If I need help, I'll put a Batman symbol or something similar. His last post, a week before his death, yesterday, were all Batman posts. He even posted a picture on his jacuzzi with a red Batman logo on it. We think that Matthew is signaling for help. He was warning us about what was going to happen. His last posts were on Instagram where a picture of him in his jacuzzi. If you don't know, Matthew allegedly died in his jacuzzi. Investigators believe it was a drowning because he didn't find any intoxication in his body. There is a lot of more investigation going on so we will just have to wait. He was struggling. He needed help. He's in a beautiful place now where he doesn't have to hurt anymore. May his beautiful soul rest in peace. Okay, I'm convinced that this was not just the weird suicide that everybody was talking about after reading all of that. This is crazy. So, Matthew Perry, seemingly, was calling for help a week before his death, before his alleged suicide, with the very same messaging that he said that he would give if he needed help. And maybe that means... I need help because I'm dealing with mental health issues. Maybe that means I need help because, I don't know, some obscure entity is coming after me and wants me dead. Maybe it's, I don't know, and maybe the former seems much more likely than the latter, obviously. What a tragedy, right? And so you go into the last post or last two posts. The second last post says, Do you understand what I'm trying to tell you? I'm A week ago are you okay? Should we send for help? A week ago are you trying to give us a hint or something? A week ago, I hope you are doing well. I've always absolutely adored you and saw you, your struggles, and sometimes your sadness. I love your laughter and I'm always rooting for you. I know you won't see this, but I see you, and hope you are happy and living a beautiful life. Somebody else said, I can see the signs six days ago. Somebody else said, I've listened to your podcast so many times to know that this is a subliminal message. Keep up the good fight, bro. Wow. So there was so much, so much leading up to the death of Matthew Perry that it's Pretty crazy that nobody and a ton of the commenters did say that like we see this like we we know that this is an issue We know that you've said this before We see you and we love you. We're here for you like Somebody said don't relapse. Somebody else said the man was sacrificed by the elite. Although many people think this is a lie, it is reality. He already knew what was going to happen to him. Wow. This is probably one of the craziest conspiracy theories that I've seen play out in real time. Ever. Like, this... Matthew Perry died in like the single most horrific ways and his very last Instagram post he posted from the hot tub that he died in and said, Oh, so warm water swirling all around you makes you feel good. Question mark. I'm Matt, man. Damn. Wow. I'm trying to see if there's any posts here like the other ones, but man That's got to be just one of the Craziest. Oh Man, that's a rough one, right? And so There, it says there are only two options here. Yes, he could have been trying to hint at a new appearance in an upcoming Batman movie, or it was something else, something that may have gone right over the heads of those who needed to interpret it. My theory is that in the last few days, this says Matthew has been calling for help in a subtle way that hopefully his friends and family would have caught on to. Unfortunately, he dies. A week later, it's worth mentioning that in one of the comments the last chapter of his recent book is titled Batman this seems to be adding up all too. Well, wow, so He also commented on one of his posts rest easy. I'm on a tall building Hmm. Somebody else said planned suicide That's fair, right? Um, somebody else is my best guess based off of nothing but pure speculation. In the background in behavioral health, Matthew was going through a manic phase, which led to an increase in social media posts. This mania may have caused him to relapse on substances, which hot water and drugs is a very dangerous. It also says from another person that read to understand the last chapter of Matt's incredibly personal book is called Batman. It had his life photos in it. It's the most essential chapter regarding his life. Batman has repeated multiple times in his book as his pickleball, because he started that sport after he almost died from opiate use. He says something along the lines of when things are bad and you can't find yourself, just ask what would Batman. Do. Batman also is a single man with no children, which Matthew spoke about a lot in a matter that resembles depression type speaking. I think he relapsed and started posting weird from the day he says he's having a drink with his father. As in the book, he also speaks on his father in an incredibly emotional, hmm, very interesting. Somebody else said, who took that last pic of him? He's pretty far from the camera. Hmm, interesting. Wow. Pretty crazy. stuff. Um, it also said, I'm not sure if it was a cry for help. He signs off Matt man as in Batman as in he is the Batman Batman's whole theme is justice over vengeance. He fights crime to ensure no one would suffer like he did. What's that all about? The last picture is all is also pretty much Almost literal foreshadowing of his own death as if it was planned exactly like that. It feels a little bit sacrificial, like he needed to die to protect something. Mmmh, that seems like a stretch. Alright. Terrible, horrible. My heart goes out to the family, the loved ones, the friends. You know, no pun intended, uh, but pretty wild conspiracy theory, cause I don't think I've seen one happen like, see that play out like that in a long time, and again, maybe it's just foreshadowing his own death, and maybe it was a planned suicide, and that probably makes the most sense, but even so, such a, such a tragedy. Alright, we're going to switch gears now, um, and go into some of the Palestine, uh, situation with Israel, but first, What I need you to do go ahead and hit that subscribe button leave a five star review I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. I told you already if you didn't leave a review All you gotta do is leave a review, and then when I bring it up in the middle of the episode, you have to go, Oh my gosh, he already mentioned this, and I haven't done it yet, and now you have that little feeling in the stomach that just makes you feel like, Ah, man, I should have done that already. And now I don't feel good. But you can feel good right now! I'm giving you the opportunity, I for give you all you got to do is hit that subscribe button and leave a five star review. All right, then next time we're sitting here talking and you're going to be like, hearing me talk about five star reviews and you're just every time from then on, you're going to get a dopamine hit because you're like, yeah, bitch, I already did that. So go ahead and do it right now. Then you'll feel good. Every single time from here on out, knowing that you left a five star review. All right, that's what I got. Let's jump back into it. The very first thing that we're going to discuss today is some of the remarks that came from Benjamin Netanyahu as he delivered his remarks in Tel Aviv on 10 30, 2023, which is. Today. All right. So here it was his statement, some of which I was highly concerned about. I'm not sure we'll get to all of them, but I'm going to start this, uh, as he speaks in English for some of it and then transfers over. So let's listen to it right now. And if you are on YouTube, You'll be able to follow along as I just pulled up with you and you can watch it along with me. If you are listening on the podcast, great. I appreciate you. But also you can watch it. You can see my beautiful face. You can watch my crazy expressions. You can see it all. Just join the YouTube and subscribe there as well. All right. The Adams archive. Here we go. Here is what enabled us to move. Until recently, many believed. That the promise of progress in the 21st century would enable us to move beyond the barbaric horrors of the past towards a better and brilliant future. Many believe that we could go about our comfortable lives and that evil will simply pass us by. It will not. The horrors that Hamas perpetrated on October 7th remind us that That we will not realize the promise of a better future unless we, the civilized world, are willing to fight the barbarians. Because the barbarians are willing to fight us. And their goal is clear. Shatter that promising future. Destroy all that we cherish. And usher in a world of fear and darkness. Ladies and gentlemen, this is a turning point. A turning point for leaders and nations. It is time for all of us to decide if we are willing to fight for a future of hope and promise. Or surrender to tyranny and terror. Now rest assured, Israel will fight. Since October 7th, Israel has been at war. Israel did not start this war. Israel did not want this war. But Israel will win this war. Hamas launched this war by perpetrating the worst savagery our people have seen since the Holocaust. Hamas murdered children in front of their parents. Murdered parents in front of their children. They burned people alive. They raped women. They beheaded men. They tortured Holocaust survivors. They kidnapped babies. They committed the most horrific crimes imaginable. Now I, one thing I'd like to point out, and this doesn't take away from and detract from anything that he just said that was horrible. Obviously, everything you just talked about was horrible. But something that was the most egregious act that every single person was unbelievably disgusted by in this war was the idea that there was And it hurts just to say the words. But there was the idea that there was 40 or whatever, there was 44 or whatever number they threw out. It was something like that. 44 babies that were beheaded. He specifically just used the word beheaded, but did not say babies. If there was babies that were beheaded, and again, I just like, Oh, it crushes my soul to even have those words around each other. But if that was the case, don't you think he would have just said it? Like, all the propaganda that we're seeing come out about this and like, all the emotional strings that they're trying to pull with this propaganda, like, if that was the case, he absolutely 100 percent would have just stated that, that was a fact. But it didn't. You want to know why? Because it's unfounded claims. Something that they cannot validate. Something without the ability, and he hasn't the whole time because he knew that it wasn't something that was founded in fact. It wasn't something that they could. Come out and say to be true because, and again, from my standpoint and from every, the standpoint of the, you know, the same, um, uh, news organizations who called it wrong on that hospital in Gaza. called it wrong on this, right? If that was the case, they, he would have absolutely 100 percent said it because it's true. And they know, and it's one of the most egregious things that they could point to and say, they did that to our people. And here's why you should support us. But he can't do that because it was not factual. Transcribed by https: otter. ai And again, that's not to support Hamas. It's just saying that that wasn't the truth and that was propaganda. And you need to don't to know when you're looking at anything in this war, that there's such a, such a fog around every single statement that made is like, it's either big enough to make headlines and you find out it wasn't true 48 hours later, or it's not big enough to make the largest of headlines and nobody remembers it the next day. Like that's just. how it generally has played out. Right. But the 7, 000 people, and we'll get to that in a minute, 7, 400 or so people that it, that Palestine has said, including women and children and everything, like all of this is just horrible. Right? So when he's sitting here saying, Oh, we're the good guys. And like, he'll get to that. Biblical conversation here in just a second where he says, we're the good guys and they're the bad guys and there's right and there's wrong. And we're the good ones who get to murder in the name of rightness, righteousness. And, and they're the bad people who murder in the name of, you know, badness. It's like. Anytime somebody tries to sell you the idea of good versus bad without a nuanced conversation between what went wrong between the two groups like, yeah, there's inherently bad people for sure and we know that, but very much more often than not, it's a much more deep conversation to be had and maybe that's not something as a culture that we've been ready to discuss for a very long time. There's always been good guys and there's always been bad guys, right? Right. But in the, in this case, it's like, yeah, you are bombing children and women too. If you go look at some of the footage that is coming out. It's not like, and, and the only reason that I have to say this is because the, the propaganda machine is propping up Israel unbelievably. Right. Like if they were saying, oh, Hamas did it. All right? Hamas is the good guys. Hamas this, Hamas that like support Hamas, like I would be condemning them consistently too. And I do condemn the acts that they've taken. But they're not the ones in the mainstream media that they're propping up with, you know, this type of propaganda campaign. So I, it goes without saying that what they're doing is wrong, right? And what Israel is doing is wrong is being sugar coated as fucking unicorn f Farts. Like, it's like, Oh, I know we did that wrong thing, but everything that we do is in the name of righteousness. It's like, no, it's not. No, it's not. You're bombing children. And actually, like they have called to bomb hospitals at certain points. They're like, Oh, they're hiding their stuff in hospitals. If you don't evacuate, we will bomb you. It's like, Okay, no, that's not how the Geneva Convention works. You don't just get to bomb whoever you want, whenever you want, because there's allegedly weapons or people within there that are persons of interest. You just can't do that. I want you to find any single situation where the U. S. bombed a mosque or bombed a hospital or bombed an elementary school. You can't find it because we followed the Geneva Convention, right? But Israel is not doing that. So let's continue listening to what he has to say. And they're part of the axis of evil that Iran has formed. An axis of terror that works by arming, training, and financing Hamas in Gaza. All right. Now listen to this. I'll go back a minute just so you can hear that from the very beginning, but we talked about this with Iran, right? When, when we bomb, I ran back groups. We're not bombing. I ran back groups. We're sending a message to Iran, right? We didn't bomb Hamas because that would have caused this just crazy domino effect of large superpowers coming in. But what we did do was a strategic message to Iran saying, stop it, right? Even the, the, the message from Kamala Harris to Palestine and Hamas, she literally gets on the camera and goes, don't. They asked her in an interview, and I should pull it up here, but, um, I did, I didn't have it ready to go, but it says they asked, they asked Kamala Harris, what is your message to Hamas and to, or I'm sorry, they asked Kamala Harris, what is your message to Iran? And she said, don't. That was her message because they know the likelihood of them retaliating against us when we. Do offensive attacks against their backed militias is high because they know the message that they just sent to Iran. So they look back at Iran and go, you better not jump in while I beat the shit out of your friend here. You better not jump in because if you do, then we're going to war too. Don't. Right. So Kamala Harris sent a clear message to Iran. This is nothing but a message to Iran. This was not a message to whatever obscure terrorist organization that sent a drone to our, our military, uh, uh, operating bases and, and hurt 24 people and I say hurt because they were at work the next three days after and the only person who really got hurt had a, uh, a heart issue that likely stemmed from some sort of vaccine and not the drone attacks that drone attacks don't cause heart attacks. Right? So it's like I want you to pay attention to his next statement, which is a statement to Iran. Just as the question to Kamala Harris is not, what is your statement to these militias? It was, what is your statement to Iran? Just as we talked about. Here we go. And they're part of the axis of evil that Iran has formed, an axis of terror that works by arming, training and financing Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen and other terror proxies throughout the Middle East and beyond the Middle East. In fighting Hamas and the Iranian Axis of Terror, Israel is fighting the enemies of civilization itself. Victory over these enemies begins with moral clarity. It begins with knowing the difference between good and evil, between right and wrong. There you have it. It means making a moral distinction between the deliberate murder of the innocent And the unintentional casualties that accompany every legitimate war, even the most just war. So there you have it. He just said the intentional deaths of, what did he say? Let's just go listen to his own words. Netanyahu just said the thing out loud that when they kill civilians, they're the bad people. But when we do it, it's just a casualty of war. Don't blame us. Blame them. Company every year of the year. He's making a moral distinction between the deliberate murder of the innocent And the unintentional ca casualties that accompany every legitimate war, even the most just war. It means holding Hamas responsible. They are trying to gaslight us into thinking that civilian casualties, the death of women and children should be normalized in the name of what's right and what's wrong. When they kill, when, when, when they kill. Women and children, they're the bad people. But when we do it, it's just a casualty of war. Don't mind us. Definitely don't condemn us. We're the good guys. Guess what? Good guys don't kill women and children. Good guys don't level entire cities. Good guys don't don't destroy entire Entire cities filled with non violent individuals, right? When they do it, they're the bad guys. But, you know, people make a moral distinction between when they deliberately target civilians and when we deliberately target civilians and also maybe kill some bad guys, quote unquote. Jeez. And the unintentional casual I'm just going to play that for you one more time. Between right and wrong. It means making a moral distinction between the deliberate murder of the innocent and the unintentional casualties that accompany every legitimate war, even the most just war. It means holding Hamas responsible for the double war crime it commits every day by deliberately targeting Israeli civilians while deliberately using Palestinian civilians as human shields. It means making clear The use of human shields is not only an immoral tactic of terror, but also an ineffective one because as long as Hamas' use of Palestinian human shields result in the international community blaming Israel, Hamas will continue to use it as a tool of terror and so will others. So when they use their human shields and we shoot women and children, whether you saw it or didn't see it. Right? It's like, that's something I remember about the Iraq war, and the war in Afghanistan, and ISIS, and like, there was always the human shield element. Right? Like, how many instances were people actually using human shields? We don't know. It's just a narrative. It's just something that's spoken that goes, they're the bad guys, and we're the good guys, and they use human shields, and we don't, and when they target women and children, they're doing it for bad reasons, and when we do it, we're doing it for good reasons. I just, anybody who's on this train of Israel is just so baffling to me, and I'm not on the train of anybody, by the way, I'll keep reiterating that. There's no good train here guys. It's all bad. It's all bad. Now whether or not the acts on October 7th, right, they're trying to make into their 9 11 whether or not that which is the the EDM concert that the the Hamas state or the the terrorists went into and killed all those people whether that that was You know, there's still questions around that because there's people who say that they knew there's questions about people who said that they were informed about this just weeks ahead of time, days ahead of time, consistently over and over again by Egyptian intelligence officers. So it's like, okay, but maybe they were just waiting for a reason, and who's to say they didn't let this happen, and who's to say they didn't make it happen in order to conduct this attack on Gaza and retake over this land for this holy war, quote unquote, that they said they've deserved for thousands of years. Hamas will continue to use the basements in Gaza's hospitals as the command posts of its vast terror tunnel network. It will continue to use mosques as fortified military positions and weapon depots. It will continue to steal fuel and humanitarian assistance from UN facilities. While Israel is doing everything to get Palestinian civilians out of harm's way, Hamas is doing everything to keep Palestinian civilians in harm's way. Israel urges Palestinian civilians to leave the areas of armed conflict. While Hamas prevents those civilians from leaving those areas. Hamas is also preventing foreign nationals from leaving Gaza altogether. And most despicably, Hamas is holding over 200 Israeli hostages, including 33 children. Holding them, terrorizing them, keeping them as hostages. Every civilized nation should stand with Israel in demanding that these hostages be freed immediately and freed unconditionally. I want to make clear Israel's position regarding a ceasefire. Just as the United States would not agree to a ceasefire after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, or after the terrorist attack of 9 11, Israel will not agree to a cessation of hostilities with Hamas after the horrific attacks of October 7th. Calls for a ceasefire are calls for Israel to surrender to Hamas, to surrender to terrorism, to surrender to barbarism. That will not happen. Ladies and gentlemen, the Bible says that there is a time for peace and a time for war. This is a time for war. A war for our common future. Today we draw a line between the forces of civilization and the forces of barbarism. It is a time for everyone to decide where they stand. Israel will stand against the forces of barbarism until victory. I hope and pray that civilized nations everywhere will back this fight. Because Israel's fight is your fight. Because if Hamas and Iran's axis of evil win, you will be their next target. That's why Israel's victory will be your victory. But make no mistake, regardless of who stands with Israel, Israel will fight until this battle is won. And Israel will prevail. May God bless Israel, and may God bless all those who stand with Israel. No, thank you, sir. Let's go back and listen to a couple of those closing statements, which is that our fight is your fight. Regardless of who stands with Israel, Israel will fight until this battle is won. Iran's axis of evil win. You will be their next target. We'll back this fight. Because Israel's fight is your fight. Because if Hamas and Iran's Axis of Evil win, you will be their next target. Excuse me, sir. Israel's fight is not my fight. Israel's fight is not my children's fight. Israel's fight is not my friend's fight. Israel's fight is Israel's fight. Israel is 7, 000 miles away from the United States. Israel is its own nation with its own capable military with the most advanced. Uh, the most advanced, one of the most advanced militaries and intelligence organizations in the world. Why in the hell would you need my money? Or my son's blood? Or my blood? I'm fighting age, still. No thank you, I'm not fighting your war, send your son. Oh, but wait, you won't send your son, your son sitting at a beach in Miami because of the 350, 000 reservists that you just recalled of the men across the globe that are from Israel. You forgot your own son, the coward sitting here in the United States today who won't go and fight your war for you just as much as you don't believe it. And he doesn't believe it. Because if you were going to believe in this war, if you were going to truly believe in this fight, go send your son to do it. You're not going to send mine. You're not going to send me. Especially if you're not going to send your own son. And that's a fact. Let's pull this up here, which is the fact that during the same exact time that he's talking about this here, during the same exact time here, which is an article from the Daily Mail states, where is Netanyahu's son, Israeli soldiers blast Benjamin Netanyahu's son, Yair, 32, for abandoning them by staying in Miami. While 360, 000 reservists are called up to fight against Hamas. But you sell me. You tell my family members. You tell my friends that your war is our war. And that we should go fight it for you. But you won't send your own son. That's disgusting. You believe in your war? Send your son. Send yourself. Don't send mine. Don't spend my tax dollars. Don't spend my son's blood. Don't send, spend my blood on your war. You, you decided to engage in this conflict. You of 140 countries decided that a ceasefire wasn't worth it. So why would I send my son? Why would I sell and send myself? To a war that you're not even willing to sacrifice. You're not even willing to send your own son to fight. Here's what the article says. The son of Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has been blasted for staying in Miami while reservists returned home to fight Hamas. Yair Netanyahu, 32 years old, has been in Florida since last April after his father told him to stop making inflammatory posts on social media, which saw him sued for defamation multiple times. Meanwhile, an unprecedented 360, 000 reservists have been called up, many of them dropping everything to fly back to Israel, even abandoning honeymoons. And there's some links on there, but yeah, a year has remained in Miami. To the irritation of many troops, Yair is enjoying his life at Miami Beach while I'm on the front lines, one soldier, a volunteer, serving on Israel's northern front, told the Times. It's us who are leaving our work, our families, our kids, to protect our families back home, in the country, not the people who are responsible for the situation. Our brothers, our fathers, sons are all going to the front line, but Yair is still not here. It does not help build

durée : 00:25:00 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Albane Penaranda - En 1989, la Révolution française était deux fois centenaire et l'Université Paris 8 avait vingt ans. Pour saluer cet anniversaire, Espace Éducation avait invité Claude Frioux qui en avait été le président durant onze années. L'Université de Paris 8 était autrefois nommée l'Université de Vincennes. Aujourd'hui, on la connait sous le nom de l'Université Paris 8-Vincennes-Saint-Denis. Elle est l'héritière du Centre universitaire expérimental de Vincennes, créé dans la foulée du mouvement de 1968 pour être un foyer d'innovation ouvert au monde contemporain, où se sont investies de nombreuses personnalités intellectuelles de l'époque, comme Gilles Deleuze ou Hélène Cixous. Le Centre universitaire expérimental de Vincennes nait dans la foulée de Mai 1968 En 1989, l'Université Paris 8 avait vingt ans. Pour saluer cet anniversaire, l'émission "Espace Éducation" avait invité Claude Frioux qui en avait été le président durant onze années. Au micro de Michèle Chouchan, Claude Frioux rappelle dans quel contexte politique était née, au lendemain de Mai 68, cette université qui ne ressemblait à aucune autre, créée au cour du bois de Vincennes, dans l'urgence et l'improvisation. Une université dont les noms de ceux qui y enseignèrent suffisent, aujourd'hui encore, à entretenir le mythe : Foucault, Deleuze, Schérer, Lyotard, Badiou, Cixous, Châtelet, Serres, Castel et bien d'autres.

The Apocalyptic Paul Booth is a series of episodes dedicated to apocalyptic readings of the apostle Paul's letters. Interviews situate Pauline apocalyptic—a stream of similar interpretations of Paul's writings originating in the work of exegetes like Rudolf Bultmann and Ernst Käsemann—among other interpretations (the Old and New Paul readings, for instance) as well as among Second Temple Jewish apocalyptic literature. Here we interview Douglas Harink, Professor Emeritus of Theology at The King's University in Edmonton, Alberta, whose main areas of interest are in Pauline studies and contemporary theology. His publications include Paul among the Postliberals: Pauline Theology beyond Christendom and Modernity (Wipf & Stock, 2013) and the edited volumes, Paul, Philosophy, and the Theolopolitical Vision: Critical Engagements with Agamben, Badiou, Zizek, and Others (Cascade, 2010) and (with Joshua Davis) Apocalyptic and the Future of Theology: With and Beyond J. Louis Martyn (Cascade, 2012).

Pairing close readings of the text with special guests, it promises to enlighten both those new to Badiou as well as those already familiar with his work. Episodes released weekly through Spring 2023.
Ryan and Todd trace the history of how thinkers have dealt with the problem of love--the varying definitions of love, the view of love's role in society, and love's philosophical importance. They begin with Plato's Symposium, touch on the New Testament, explore the role of love in Hegel's thought, discuss Badiou's love event, and conclude with the psychoanalytic conception of love, as developed by Jacques Lacan and Mari Ruti.
Robin McCoy Brooks' book Psychoanalysis, Catastrophe, and Social Action (Routledge, 2021) uses psychoanalytic theory to explore how political subjectivity comes about within the context of global catastrophe, via the emergence of collective individuations through trans-subjectivity. Serving as a jumping-off point to address the structural linkage between collective catastrophe, subject, group, and political transformation, trans-subjectivity is the central tenet of the book, conceptualized as a psyche-social dynamic that initiates social transformation and which may be enhanced in the clinical setting. Each chapter investigates a distinct manifestation of trans-subjectivity in relation to various real-world events as they manifest clinically in the analytic couple and within group processes. The author builds her conceptual arguments through a psyche/social reading of Kristeva's theory of signifiance (sublimation), Lacan's 1945 essay on collective logic, Heidegger's secular reading of the apostle Paul's Christian revolution, and Zizek, Badiou and Jung's conception of the neighbor within a differentiated humanity. The book features clinical illustrations, an auto-ethnographic study of the emergence of an AIDS clinic, an accounting of trans-subjectivity in Black revolutionary events in the U.S., and an examination of some expressions of care that arose in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Psychoanalysis, Catastrophe & Social Action is important reading for psychoanalysts, psycho-dynamic based therapists, psychologists, group therapists, philosophers and political activists. Roy Barsness is a Clinical Psychoanalytic Psychologist, Founder and Executive Director of the Post-Graduate Program in Relationally-Focused Psychodynamic Therapy; Professor at the Seattle School of Theology and Psychology and have been in clinical practice for 30+ years.

La publicación en español del libro más reciente de Erin Graff Zivin (Profesora de Español y Portugués y de Literatura Comparada en la Universidad de Southern California) es un acontecimiento para los estudios literarios latinoamericanos, la literatura comparada, los estudios culturales y la filosofía continental. Breve libro infinito, Anarqueologías. Ética y política de la lectura errada (Prometeo, 2021) es al mismo tiempo una apuesta por y un ejercicio de la lectura intempestiva: un abrazo a la incertidumbre, la errancia y el equívoco que constituyen todo acto de lectura. Anarqueologías es, además, una propuesta y una puesta en práctica de la mutua exposición —orgullosamente porosa y anacrónica— entre pensadores y campos del saber: ¿qué frutos se desprenden de leer a Kierkegaard, Levinas, Derrida, Badiou y Rancière con, contra, mediante y a la luz de Borges, Saer, Kafka y César Aira? ¿Qué ocurre si en vez de insistir en la lógica inquisitorial de la identidad y en la excavación interpretativa como doxa, pensamos indisciplinadamente, anacrónicamente, anarqueológicamente? Anarqueologías de Erin Graff Zivin es un merodeo, una aventura y, por qué no, un regodeo en estas preguntas—un libro que pone de relieve el disfrute, la dificultad, y el disfrute en la dificultad de toda lectura detenida.
