En este episodio nos adentramos en el oscuro y sangriento universo de Doom, el icónico videojuego de id Software que cambió para siempre el modo en que entendemos el terror interactivo. Pero hoy no hablaremos de armas ni de demonios... sino de narrativa. ¿Puede un FPS de los 90 ser interpretado como una alegoría existencial? ¿Qué hay detrás de sus laberintos pixelados y su violencia desatada? Aquí respondemos a esas preguntas con un enfoque literario y simbólico que te hará mirar a Doom con otros ojos. Gilgamesh, Homero, Virgilio, Dante Alighieri, John Milton, Clark Ashton Smith, H. P.

In Part 2, we wrap up our consideration of Jean-Paul Sartre's midcentury magnum opus by exploring how we move from the inaccessible interiority of consciousness to our concrete relations with others. The latter half of Being & Nothingness takes up the question of what aspects of our being are revealed to us in confrontation with the Other. Sartre famously argues here that it is the Other's look, the omnipresent possibility of being seen, judged, and evaluated by another consciousness that discloses the objectivity of our being through and for the Other. As soon as the Other enters the scene, a fundamental aspect of our being is alienated from us; captured in the Other's appropriating gaze. The various attempts by the for-itself to retrieve this alienated being and penetrate the Other's essential freedom play a determinate role in shaping the contours of our fundamental projects, that is the immanently revisable set of possibilities, meaning, and value we pro-ject into the world.  In the final sections of the book, Sartre sketches an alternative to Freudian psychoanalysis, asks us to reframe our conception of the autonomous will and the role of giving and asking for reasons, and gestures towards an ethics grounded in criterionless choice.Please consider becoming a paying subscriber to our Patreon to get exclusive bonus episodes, early access releases, and bookish merch: https://www.patreon.com/MoralMinorityFollow us on Twitter(X).Devin: @DevinGoureCharles: @satireredactedEmail us at: moralminoritypod@gmail.com

Dans son essai consacré à Charles Baudelaire, Jean-Paul Sartre écrit que ce dernier avait eu la vie qu'il méritait, ce qui, quand on connaît la vie tragique du "poète maudit", ne sonne pas vraiment comme un compliment. Que voulait-il dire par là ? N'est-ce pas faire preuve de dureté, voire d'inhumanité que de considérer que nous avons la vie que nous méritons ?

Alain Leempoel est notre invité pour la mise en scène de la pièce "Kean" avec Daniel Hanssens, une adaptation de l'oeuvre d'Alexandre Dumas, revisitée par Jean-Paul Sartre. Kean est un célèbre acteur anglais. Il triomphe au Théâtre Royal de Drury Lane, et tout Londres, au début du XIXème siècle, court l'acclamer. Deux femmes l'aiment : la comtesse Éléna, épouse d'un ambassadeur, et Anna Damby, jeune héritière bourgeoise. Kean est débauché, couvert de dettes, ivrogne et coureur de jupons. Toutefois le prince de Galles en a fait son ami. Kean est un homme excessif, qui se livre avec volupté à l'insolence, à la générosité et au mépris. Mais, au-delà de ces manifestations d'un tempérament puissant, c'est la condition du comédien et de l'homme de génie que Dumas a posée dans les termes les plus efficaces. Kean est-il lui-même, ou bien les divers personnages (Roméo, Hamlet, Othello) qu'il incarne ? Dans quelle mesure ces êtres shakespeariens ne dévorent-ils pas sa personnalité ? Un soir, enfin, Kean explose. À la face du public, il met son cœur à nu. Et il est hué. Dumas peint un génie des planches, un redresseur de torts, ivrogne impénitent, amoureux empanaché. Kean est avant tout l'homme des défis et des désillusions. La pièce offre une réflexion sur la place du créateur dans la société. Dumas scrute avec humour et profondeur le conflit entre l'Art et la Vie.

durée : 00:22:27 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Albane Penaranda, Mathias Le Gargasson, Antoine Dhulster - Le philosophe Maurice Merleau-Ponty a créé avec Jean-Paul Sartre et Simone de Beauvoir la revue "Les Temps modernes" en 1945, juste après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il raconte cette aventure éditoriale et intellectuelle au micro de Georges Charbonnier en 1959. - réalisation : Massimo Bellini, Vincent Abouchar - invités : Maurice Merleau-Ponty Philosophe français

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the French philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1908-1961), who was part of the movement known as phenomenology. While less well-known than his contemporaries Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir, his popularity has increased among philosophers in recent years. Merleau-Ponty rejected Rene Descartes' division between body and mind, arguing that the way we perceive the world around us cannot be separated from our experience of inhabiting a physical body. Merleau-Ponty was interested in the down-to-earth question of what it is actually like to live in the world. While performing actions as simple as brushing our teeth or patting a dog, we shape the world and, in turn, the world shapes us.

Dolors Vilarasau, premi extraordinari a tota una traject

BB_Lesson94_LifesGoal This episode discusses the differences between the Bible's instruction on how to live our lives and the advice of some great thinkers, from Aristotle to Buddha to Jean-Paul Sartre.

It's a small world. The great David Rieff came to my San Francisco studio today for in person interview about his new anti-woke polemic Desire and Fate. And half way through our conversation, he brought up Daniel Bessner's This Is America piece which Bessner discussed on yesterday's show. I'm not sure what that tells us about wokeness, a subject which Rieff and I aren't in agreement. For him, it's the thing-in-itself which make sense of our current cultural malaise. Thus Desire and Fate, his attempt (with a great intro from John Banville) to wake us up from Wokeness. For me, it's a distraction. I've included the full transcript below. Lots of good stuff to chew on. Keen On America is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS * Rieff views "woke" ideology as primarily American and post-Protestant in nature, rather than stemming solely from French philosophy, emphasizing its connections to self-invention and subjective identity.* He argues that woke culture threatens high culture but not capitalism, noting that corporations have readily embraced a "baudlerized" version of identity politics that avoids class discussions.* Rieff sees woke culture as connected to the wellness movement, with both sharing a preoccupation with "psychic safety" and the metaphorical transformation of experience in which "words” become a form of “violence."* He suggests young people's material insecurity contributes to their focus on identity, as those facing bleak economic prospects turn inward when they "can't make their way in the world."* Rieff characterizes woke ideology as "apocalyptic but not pessimistic," contrasting it with his own genuine pessimism which he considers more realistic about human nature and more cheerful in its acceptance of life's limitations. FULL TRANSCRIPTAndrew Keen: Hello everybody, as we digest Trump 2.0, we don't talk that much these days about woke and woke ideology. There was a civil war amongst progressives, I think, on the woke front in 2023 and 2024, but with Donald Trump 2.0 and his various escapades, let's just talk these days about woke. We have a new book, however, on the threat of woke by my guest, David Rieff. It's called Desire and Fate. He wrote it in 2023, came out in late 2024. David's visiting the Bay Area. He's an itinerant man traveling from the East Coast to Latin America and Europe. David, welcome to Keen on America. Do you regret writing this book given what's happened in the last few months in the United States?David Rieff: No, not at all, because I think that the road to moral and intellectual hell is trying to censor yourself according to what you think is useful. There's a famous story of Jean Paul Sartre that he said to the stupefaction of a journalist late in his life that he'd always known about the gulag, and the journalist pretty surprised said, well, why didn't you say anything? And Sartre said so as not to demoralize the French working class. And my own view is, you know, you say what you have to say about this and if I give some aid and comfort to people I don't like, well, so be it. Having said that, I also think a lot of these woke ideas have their, for all of Trump's and Trump's people's fierce opposition to woke, some of the identity politics, particularly around Jewish identity seems to me not that very different from woke. Strangely they seem to have taken, for example, there's a lot of the talk about anti-semitism on college campuses involves student safety which is a great woke trope that you feel unsafe and what people mean by that is not literally they're going to get shot or beaten up, they mean that they feel psychically unsafe. It's part of the kind of metaphorization of experience that unfortunately the United States is now completely in the grips of. But the same thing on the other side, people like Barry Weiss, for example, at the Free Press there, they talk in the same language of psychic safety. So I'm not sure there's, I think there are more similarities than either side is comfortable with.Andrew Keen: You describe Woke, David, as a cultural revolution and you associated in the beginning of the book with something called Lumpen-Rousseauism. As we joked before we went live, I'm not sure if there's anything in Rousseau which isn't Lumpen. But what exactly is this cultural revolution? And can we blame it on bad French philosophy or Swiss French?David Rieff: Well, Swiss-French philosophy, you know exactly. There is a funny anecdote, as I'm sure you know, that Rousseau made a visit to Edinburgh to see Hume and there's something in Hume's diaries where he talks about Rousseau pacing up and down in front of the fire and suddenly exclaiming, but David Hume is not a bad man. And Hume notes in his acerbic way, Rousseau was like walking around without his skin on. And I think some of the woke sensitivity stuff is very much people walking around without their skin on. They can't stand the idea of being offended. I don't see it as much - of course, the influence of that version of cultural relativism that the French like Deleuze and Guattari and other people put forward is part of the story, but I actually see it as much more of a post-Protestant thing. This idea, in that sense, some kind of strange combination of maybe some French philosophy, but also of the wellness movement, of this notion that health, including psychic health, was the ultimate good in a secular society. And then the other part, which again, it seems to be more American than French, which is this idea, and this is particularly true in the trans movement, that you can be anything you want to be. And so that if you feel yourself to be a different gender, well, that's who you are. And what matters is your own subjective sense of these things, and it's up to you. The outside world has no say in it, it's what you feel. And that in a sense, what I mean by post-Protestant is that, I mean, what's the difference between Protestantism and Catholicism? The fundamental difference is, it seems to me, that in Roman Catholic tradition, you need the priest to intercede with God, whereas in Protestant tradition, it is, except for the Anglicans, but for most of Protestantism, it's you and God. And in that sense it seems to me there are more of what I see in woke than this notion that some of the right-wing people like Chris Rufo and others have that this is cultural French cultural Marxism making its insidious way through the institutions.Andrew Keen: It's interesting you talk about the Protestant ethic and you mentioned Hume's remark about Rousseau not having his skin on. Do you think that Protestantism enabled people to grow thick skins?David Rieff: I mean, the Calvinist idea certainly did. In fact, there were all these ideas in Protestant culture, at least that's the classical interpretation of deferred gratification. Capitalism was supposed to be the work ethic, all of that stuff that Weber talks about. But I think it got in the modern version. It became something else. It stopped being about those forms of disciplines and started to be about self-invention. And in a sense, there's something very American about that because after all you know it's the Great Gatsby. It's what's the famous sentence of F. Scott Fitzgerald's: there are no second acts in American lives.Andrew Keen: This is the most incorrect thing anyone's ever said about America. I'm not sure if he meant it to be incorrect, did he? I don't know.David Rieff: I think what's true is that you get the American idea, you get to reinvent yourself. And this notion of the dream, the dream become reality. And many years ago when I was spending a lot of time in LA in the late 80s, early 90s, at LAX, there was a sign from the then mayor, Tom Bradley, about how, you know, if you can dream it, it can be true. And I think there's a lot in identitarian woke idea which is that we can - we're not constricted by history or reality. In fact, it's all the present and the future. And so to me again, woke seems to me much more recognizable as something American and by extension post-Protestant in the sense that you see the places where woke is most powerful are in the other, what the encampment kids would call settler colonies, Australia and Canada. And now in the UK of course, where it seems to me by DI or EDI as they call it over there is in many ways stronger in Britain even than it was in the US before Trump.Andrew Keen: Does it really matter though, David? I mean, that's my question. Does it matter? I mean it might matter if you have the good or the bad fortune to teach at a small, expensive liberal arts college. It might matter with some of your dinner parties in Tribeca or here in San Francisco, but for most people, who cares?David Rieff: It doesn't matter. I think it matters to culture and so what you think culture is worth, because a lot of the point of this book was to say there's nothing about woke that threatens capitalism, that threatens the neo-liberal order. I mean it's turning out that Donald Trump is a great deal bigger threat to the neoliberal order. Woke was to the contrary - woke is about talking about everything but class. And so a kind of baudlerized, de-radicalized version of woke became perfectly fine with corporate America. That's why this wonderful old line hard lefty Adolph Reed Jr. says somewhere that woke is about diversifying the ruling class. But I do think it's a threat to high culture because it's about equity. It's about representation. And so elite culture, which I have no shame in proclaiming my loyalty to, can't survive the woke onslaught. And it hasn't, in my view. If you look at just the kinds of books that are being written, the kinds of plays that are been put on, even the opera, the new operas that are being commissioned, they're all about representing the marginalized. They're about speaking for your group, whatever that group is, and doing away with various forms of cultural hierarchy. And I'm with Schoenberg: if it's for everybody, if it's art, Schoenberg said it's not for everybody, and if it's for everybody it's not art. And I think woke destroys that. Woke can live with schlock. I'm sorry, high culture can live with schlock, it always has, it always will. What it can't live with is kitsch. And by which I mean kitsch in Milan Kundera's definition, which is to have opinions that you feel better about yourself for holding. And that I think is inimical to culture. And I think woke is very destructive of those traditions. I mean, in the most obvious sense, it's destructive of the Western tradition, but you know, the high arts in places like Japan or Bengal, I don't think it's any more sympathetic to those things than it is to Shakespeare or John Donne or whatever. So yeah, I think it's a danger in that sense. Is it a danger to the peace of the world? No, of course not.Andrew Keen: Even in cultural terms, as you explain, it is an orthodoxy. If you want to work with the dominant cultural institutions, the newspapers, the universities, the publishing houses, you have to play by those rules, but the great artists, poets, filmmakers, musicians have never done that, so all it provides, I mean you brought up Kundera, all it provides is something that independent artists, creative people will sneer at, will make fun of, as you have in this new book.David Rieff: Well, I hope they'll make fun of it. But on the other hand, I'm an old guy who has the means to sneer. I don't have to please an editor. Someone will publish my books one way or another, whatever ones I have left to write. But if you're 25 years old, maybe you're going to sneer with your pals in the pub, but you're gonna have to toe the line if you want to be published in whatever the obvious mainstream place is and you're going to be attacked on social media. I think a lot of people who are very, young people who are skeptical of this are just so afraid of being attacked by their peers on various social media that they keep quiet. I don't know that it's true that, I'd sort of push back on that. I think non-conformists will out. I hope it's true. But I wonder, I mean, these traditions, once they die, they're very hard to rebuild. And, without going full T.S. Eliot on you, once you don't think you're part of the past, once the idea is that basically, pretty much anything that came before our modern contemporary sense of morality and fairness and right opinion is to be rejected and that, for example, the moral character of the artist should determine whether or not the art should be paid attention to - I don't know how you come back from that or if you come back from that. I'm not convinced you do. No, other arts will be around. And I mean, if I were writing a critical review of my own book, I'd say, look, this culture, this high culture that you, David Rieff, are writing an elegy for, eulogizing or memorializing was going to die anyway, and we're at the beginning of another Gutenbergian epoch, just as Gutenberg, we're sort of 20 years into Marshall McLuhan's Gutenberg galaxy, and these other art forms will come, and they won't be like anything else. And that may be true.Andrew Keen: True, it may be true. In a sense then, to extend that critique, are you going full T.S. Eliot in this book?David Rieff: Yeah, I think Eliot was right. But it's not just Eliot, there are people who would be for the wokesters more acceptable like Mandelstam, for example, who said you're part of a conversation that's been going on long before you were born, that's going to be going on after you are, and I think that's what art is. I think the idea that we make some completely new thing is a childish fantasy. I think you belong to a tradition. There are periods - look, this is, I don't find much writing in English in prose fiction very interesting. I have to say I read the books that people talk about because I'm trying to understand what's going on but it doesn't interest me very much, but again, there have been periods of great mediocrity. Think of a period in the late 17th century in England when probably the best poet was this completely, rightly, justifiably forgotten figure, Colley Cibber. You had the great restoration period and then it all collapsed, so maybe it'll be that way. And also, as I say, maybe it's just as with the print revolution, that this new culture of social media will produce completely different forms. I mean, everything is mortal, not just us, but cultures and civilizations and all the rest of it. So I can imagine that, but this is the time I live in and the tradition I come from and I'm sorry it's gone, and I think what's replacing it is for the most part worse.Andrew Keen: You're critical in the book of what you, I'm quoting here, you talk about going from the grand inquisitor to the grand therapist. But you're very critical of the broader American therapeutic culture of acute sensitivity, the thin skin nature of, I guess, the Rousseau in this, whatever, it's lumpen Rousseauanism. So how do you interpret that without psychologizing, or are you psychologizing in the book? How are you making sense of our condition? In other words, can one critique criticize therapeutic culture without becoming oneself therapeutic?David Rieff: You mean the sort of Pogo line, we've met the enemy and it is us. Well, I suppose there's some truth to that. I don't know how much. I think that woke is in some important sense a subset of the wellness movement. And the wellness movement after all has tens and tens of millions of people who are in one sense or another influenced by it. And I think health, including psychic health, and we've moved from wellness as corporal health to wellness as being both soma and psyche. So, I mean, if that's psychologizing, I certainly think it's drawing the parallel or seeing woke in some ways as one of the children of the god of wellness. And that to me, I don't know how therapeutic that is. I think it's just that once you feel, I'm interested in what people feel. I'm not necessarily so interested in, I mean, I've got lots of opinions, but what I think I'm better at than having opinions is trying to understand why people think what they think. And I do think that once health becomes the ultimate good in a secular society and once death becomes the absolutely unacceptable other, and once you have the idea that there's no real distinction of any great validity between psychic and physical wellness, well then of course sensitivity to everything becomes almost an inevitable reaction.Andrew Keen: I was reading the book and I've been thinking about a lot of movements in America which are trying to bring people together, dealing with America, this divided America, as if it's a marriage in crisis. So some of the most effective or interesting, I think, thinkers on this, like Arlie Hochschild in Berkeley, use the language of therapy to bring or to try to bring America back together, even groups like the Braver Angels. Can therapy have any value or that therapeutic culture in a place like America where people are so bitterly divided, so hateful towards one another?David Rieff: Well, it's always been a country where, on the one hand, people have been, as you say, incredibly good at hatred and also a country of people who often construe themselves as misfits and heretics from the Puritans forward. And on the other hand, you have that small-town American idea, which sometimes I think is as important to woke and DI as as anything else which is that famous saying of small town America of all those years ago which was if you don't have something nice to say don't say anything at all. And to some extent that is, I think, a very powerful ancestor of these movements. Whether they're making any headway - of course I hope they are, but Hochschild is a very interesting figure, but I don't, it seems to me it's going all the other way, that people are increasingly only talking to each other.Andrew Keen: What this movement seems to want to do is get beyond - I use this word carefully, I'm not sure if they use it but I'm going to use it - ideology and that we're all prisoners of ideology. Is woke ideology or is it a kind of post-ideology?David Rieff: Well, it's a redemptive idea, a restorative idea. It's an idea that in that sense, there's a notion that it's time for the victims, for the first to be last and the last to be first. I mean, on some level, it is as simple as that. On another level, as I say, I do think it has a lot to do with metaphorization of experience, that people say silence is violence and words are violence and at that point what's violence? I mean there is a kind of level to me where people have gotten trapped in the kind of web of their own metaphors and now are living by them or living shackled to them or whatever image you're hoping for. But I don't know what it means to get beyond ideology. What, all men will be brothers, as in the Beethoven-Schiller symphony? I mean, it doesn't seem like that's the way things are going.Andrew Keen: Is the problem then, and I'm thinking out loud here, is the problem politics or not enough politics?David Rieff: Oh, I think the problem is that now we don't know, we've decided that everything is part, the personal is the political, as the feminists said, 50, 60 years ago. So the personal's political, so the political is the personal. So you have to live the exemplary moral life, or at least the life that doesn't offend anybody or that conforms to whatever the dominant views of what good opinions are, right opinions are. I think what we're in right now is much more the realm of kind of a new set of moral codes, much more than ideology in the kind of discrete sense of politics.Andrew Keen: Now let's come back to this idea of being thin-skinned. Why are people so thin-skinned?David Rieff: Because, I mean, there are lots of things to say about that. One thing, of course, that might be worth saying, is that the young generations, people who are between, let's say, 15 and 30, they're in real material trouble. It's gonna be very hard for them to own a house. It's hard for them to be independent and unless the baby boomers like myself will just transfer every penny to them, which doesn't seem very likely frankly, they're going to live considerably worse than generations before. So if you can't make your way in the world then maybe you make your way yourself or you work on yourself in that sort of therapeutic sense. You worry about your own identity because the only place you have in the world in some way is yourself, is that work, that obsession. I do think some of these material questions are important. There's a guy you may know who's not at all woke, a guy who teaches at the University of Washington called Danny Bessner. And I just did a show with him this morning. He's a smart guy and we have a kind of ironic correspondence over email and DM. And I once said to him, why are you so bitter about everything? And he said, you want to know why? Because I have two children and the likelihood is I'll never get a teaching job that won't require a three hour commute in order for me to live anywhere that I can afford to live. And I thought, and he couldn't be further from woke, he's a kind of Jacobin guy, Jacobin Magazine guy, and if he's left at all, it's kind of old left, but I think a lot of people feel that, that they feel their practical future, it looks pretty grim.Andrew Keen: But David, coming back to the idea of art, they're all suited to the world of art. They don't have to buy a big house and live in the suburbs. They can become poets. They can become filmmakers. They can put their stuff up on YouTube. They can record their music online. There are so many possibilities.David Rieff: It's hard to monetize that. Maybe now you're beginning to sound like the people you don't like. Now you're getting to sound like a capitalist.Andrew Keen: So what? Well, I don't care if I sound like a capitalist. You're not going to starve to death.David Rieff: Well, you might not like, I mean, it's fine to be a barista at 24. It's not so fine at 44. And are these people going to ever get out of this thing? I don't know. I wonder. Look, when I was starting as a writer, as long as you were incredibly diligent, and worked really hard, you could cobble together at least a basic living by accepting every assignment and people paid you bits and bobs of money, but put together, you could make a living. Now, the only way to make money, unless you're lucky enough to be on staff of a few remaining media outlets that remain, is you have to become an impresario, you have become an entrepreneur of your own stuff. And again, sure, do lots of people manage that? Yeah, but not as many as could have worked in that other system, and look at the fate of most newspapers, all folding. Look at the universities. We can talk about woke and how woke destroyed, in my view anyway, a lot of the humanities. But there's also a level in which people didn't want to study these things. So we're looking at the last generation in a lot places of a lot of these humanities departments and not just the ones that are associated with, I don't know, white supremacy or the white male past or whatever, but just the humanities full stop. So I know if that sounds like, maybe it sounds like a capitalist, but maybe it also sounds like you know there was a time when the poets - you know very well, poets never made a living, poets taught in universities. That's the way American poets made their money, including pretty famous poets like Eric Wolcott or Joseph Brodsky or writers, Toni Morrison taught at Princeton all those years, Joyce Carol Oates still alive, she still does. Most of these people couldn't make a living of their work and so the university provided that living.Andrew Keen: You mentioned Barry Weiss earlier. She's making a fortune as an anti-woke journalist. And Free Press seems to be thriving. Yascha Mounk's Persuasion is doing pretty well. Andrew Sullivan, another good example, making a fortune off of Substack. It seems as if the people willing to take risks, Barry Weiss leaving the New York Times, Andrew Sullivan leaving everything he's ever joined - that's...David Rieff: Look, are there going to be people who thrive in this new environment? Sure. And Barry Weiss turns out to be this kind of genius entrepreneur. She deserves full credit for that. Although even Barry Weiss, the paradox for me of Barry Weiss is, a lot of her early activism was saying that she felt unsafe with these anti-Israeli teachers at Columbia. So in a sense, she was using some of the same language as the woke use, psychic safety, because she didn't mean Joseph Massad was gonna come out from the blackboard and shoot her in the eye. She meant that she was offended and used the language of safety to describe that. And so in that sense, again, as I was saying to you earlier, I think there are more similarities here. And Trump, I think this is a genuine counterrevolution that Trump is trying to mount. I'm not very interested in the fascism, non-fascism debate. I'm rather skeptical of it.Andrew Keen: As Danny Bessner is. Yeah, I thought Danny's piece about that was brilliant.David Rieff: We just did a show about it today, that piece about why that's all rubbish. I was tempted, I wrote to a friend that guy you may know David Bell teaches French history -Andrew Keen: He's coming on the show next week. Well, you see, it's just a little community of like-minded people.David Rieff: There you go. Well, I wrote to David.Andrew Keen: And you mentioned his father in the book, Daniel.David Rieff: Yeah, well, his father is sort of one of the tutelary idols of the book. I had his father and I read his father and I learned an enormous amount. I think that book about the cultural contradictions of capitalism is one of the great prescient books about our times. But I wrote to David, I said, I actually sent him the Bessner piece which he was quite ambivalent about. But I said well, I'm not really convinced by the fascism of Trump, maybe just because Hitler read books, unlike Donald Trump. But it's a genuine counterrevolution. And what element will change the landscape in terms of DI and woke and identitarianism is not clear. These people are incredibly ambitious. They really mean to change this country, transform it.Andrew Keen: But from the book, David, Trump's attempts to cleanse, if that's the right word, the university, I would have thought you'd have rather admired that, all these-David Rieff: I agree with some of it.Andrew Keen: All these idiots writing the same article for 30 years about something that no one has any interest in.David Rieff: I look, my problem with Trump is that I do support a lot of that. I think some of the stuff that Christopher Rufo, one of the leading ideologues of this administration has uncovered about university programs and all of this crap, I think it's great that they're not paying for it anymore. The trouble is - you asked me before, is it that important? Is culture important compared to destroying the NATO alliance, blowing up the global trade regime? No. I don't think. So yeah, I like a lot of what they're doing about the university, I don't like, and I am very fiercely opposed to this crackdown on speech. That seems to be grotesque and revolting, but are they canceling supporting transgender theater in Galway? Yeah, I think it's great that they're canceling all that stuff. And so I'm not, that's my problem with Trump, is that some of that stuff I'm quite unashamedly happy about, but it's not nearly worth all the damage he's doing to this country and the world.Andrew Keen: Being very generous with your time, David. Finally, in the book you describe woke as, and I thought this was a very sharp way of describing it, describe it as being apocalyptic but not pessimistic. What did you mean by that? And then what is the opposite of woke? Would it be not apocalyptic, but cheerful?David Rieff: Well, I think genuine pessimists are cheerful, I would put myself among those. The model is Samuel Beckett, who just thinks things are so horrible that why not be cheerful about them, and even express one's pessimism in a relatively cheerful way. You remember the famous story that Thomas McCarthy used to tell about walking in the Luxembourg Gardens with Beckett and McCarthy says to him, great day, it's such a beautiful day, Sam. Beckett says, yeah, beautiful day. McCarthy says, makes you glad to be alive. And Beckett said, oh, I wouldn't go that far. And so, the genuine pessimist is quite cheerful. But coming back to woke, it's apocalyptic in the sense that everything is always at stake. But somehow it's also got this reformist idea that cultural revolution will cleanse away the sins of the supremacist patriarchal past and we'll head for the sunny uplands. I think I'm much too much of a pessimist to think that's possible in any regime, let alone this rather primitive cultural revolution called woke.Andrew Keen: But what would the opposite be?David Rieff: The opposite would be probably some sense that the best we're going to do is make our peace with the trash nature of existence, that life is finite in contrast with the wellness people who probably have a tendency towards the apocalyptic because death is an insult to them. So everything is staving off the bad news and that's where you get this idea that you can, like a lot of revolutions, you can change the nature of people. Look, the communist, Che Guevara talked about the new man. Well, I wonder if he thought it was so new when he was in Bolivia. I think these are - people need utopias, this is one of them, MAGA is another utopia by the way, and people don't seem to be able to do without them and that's - I wish it were otherwise but it isn't.Andrew Keen: I'm guessing the woke people would be offended by the idea of death, are they?David Rieff: Well, I think the woke people, in this synchronicity, people and a lot of people, they're insulted - how can this happen to me, wonderful me? And this is those jokes in the old days when the British could still be savage before they had to have, you know, Henry the Fifth be played by a black actor - why me? Well, why not you? That's just so alien to and it's probably alien to the American idea. You're supposed to - it's supposed to work out and the truth is it doesn't work out. But La Rochefoucauld says somewhere no one can stare for too long at death or the sun and maybe I'm asking too much.Andrew Keen: Maybe only Americans can find death unacceptable to use one of your words.David Rieff: Yes, perhaps.Andrew Keen: Well, David Rieff, congratulations on the new book. Fascinating, troubling, controversial as always. Desire and Fate. I know you're writing a book about Oppenheimer, very different kind of subject. We'll get you back on the show to talk Oppenheimer, where I guess there's not going to be a lot of Lumpen-Rousseauism.David Rieff: Very little, very little love and Rousseau in the quantum mechanics world, but thanks for having me.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Depois do primeiro episódio em que ouvimos falar sobre livros portugueses que contribuíram para o processo revolucionário do 25 de Abril, vamos agora focar a nossa atenção na literatura anticolonial, cujos contornos são mais internacionais, mas mais difíceis de definir. A lista de livros a discutir começa pelas obras do jornalista Basil Davidson da década de 1950, do antropólogo norte-americano Marvin Harris, Portugal's African "Wards" - A First-Hand Report on Labor and Education in Moçambique (1958) e de James Duffy, Portuguese Africa (1959). A esta configuração anglo-americana pertencem, igualmente: o livro do jornalista português António de Figueiredo, que terá sido ajudado, tanto por Harris como por Davidson, na publicação do seu livro intitulado Portugal and its Empire: the Truth (1961); bem como o de Perry Anderson, Portugal and the End of Ultra-Colonialism (1962). Do lado francês, a revista Présence Africaine acolheu nacionalistas angolanos nas suas lutas pela independência, como foi o caso de Mário Pinto de Andrade e do escritor Castro Soromenho. O Padre Robert Davezies, conhecido por ter denunciado as atrocidades da Guerra da Argélia, emprestou a sua voz à causa de Angola, num primeiro livro Les Angolais (1965), a que se seguiu La Guerre d'Angola (1968). São também lembrados os textos de dois combatentes pela libertação da Guiné e de Moçambique: é o caso de Amilcar Cabral, que escreveu a introdução à obra de Basil Davidson, The Liberation of Guiné: Aspects of an African Revolution (1969), bem como de Eduardo Mondlane, The Struggle for Mozambique (1969). Nesta sequência, é ainda considerada a intervenção do Padre Hastings na denúncia do massacre de Wiriamu, ocorrido em 1972. São ainda referidas obras mais dispersas e até de certa forma híbridas, como é o caso de ‘Negritude e humanismo’, um opúsculo publicado pela Casa dos Estudantes do Império em 1964, de Alfredo Margarido. O escritor e investigador construiu uma articulação rara entre produção literária e investigação histórica e antropológica. Esta última tinha, aliás, raízes na criatividade dos surrealistas, representados na passagem de Cruzeiro Seixas por Angola, iniciada na década de 1950. Paralelamente, a tradução portuguesa de Os condenados da terra de Frantz Fanon, com prefácio de Jean-Paul Sartre, aponta para um outro facto editorial conseguido na contra-corrente da censura, em meados da década de 1960. O debate é moderado por Isabel Castro Henriques e conta com a participação de Aurora Santos, Bernardo Cruz, José Augusto Pereira, Manuela Ribeiro Sanches, Nuno Domingos e Víctor Barros.

A liberdade é um presente… ou uma condenação?Neste episódio, mergulho na visão de Jean-Paul Sartre sobre a liberdade — não aquela idealizada, mas a liberdade crua, angustiante e inevitável.

On Tuesday August 21, 2012, at 3:30 pm ET, I spoke with Josh Tillman, who'd left a popular band called Fleet Foxes to venture out on his own. He called himself Father John Misty and earlier that spring, Sub Pop had released his acclaimed debut album, Fear Fun. Josh and I had a talk about its meta- and philosophical themes, why he name dropped people like Neil Young and Jean-Paul Sartre, the novel he'd written, why he left Fleet Foxes, his interest in comedy, what his favourite Bob Dylan song was and under appreciated and over discussed aspects of Dylan's work, future plans, and more.

Andrea Malabaila"Prendi i tuoi sogni e scappa"Edizioni Spartacowww.edizionispartaco.comSe, come sosteneva Jean-Paul Sartre «il calcio è una metafora della vita», allora l'adolescenza non può che essere una finale di Champions, dove ti giochi il tutto per tutto. Lo è per Jacopo, «campione del mondo di sogni a occhi aperti»: è il maggio del 1996, la sua squadra del cuore sta per disputare la partita decisiva e lui, diciottenne, all'ultimo anno di liceo, sta per vivere la stagione più esaltante, spaventosa e straordinaria della sua esistenza. Alberto è il compagno di banco, l'amico per la pelle, sicuro di procurare due biglietti per il match. Bisogna colmare la distanza da Torino a Roma, e Jacopo riesce a prendere l'agognata patente. Ma l'adolescenza è un caos terribile e meraviglioso, ogni evento sembra nello stesso tempo possibile e irraggiungibile. Ci sono la maturità, i genitori con il fiato sul collo, la nonna malata, e poi l'universo ragazze non sempre gira nel verso giusto: Rossella è l'amore platonico di Jacopo, lei sì che gli sembra una chimera inafferrabile. È come stare sulle montagne russe: all'apice della felicità, tutto precipita. La sera della partita, dopo un gol entusiasmante, Jacopo prova una rinnovata fiducia di poter cambiare le cose. Corre fuori. La strada è lunga. Si ferma in un bar durante i rigori, per poi riprendere la sua personale missione… dichiararsi a Rossella.Un romanzo sull'amicizia, sulle passioni non solo calcistiche, in cui scorre veloce, travolgente, sorprendente, impetuosa, irresistibile la vita: «Eravamo ancora così giovani e innocenti da essere pura potenza».Andrea Malabaila è nato a Torino nel 1977. Ha pubblicato il primo romanzo a ventitré anni e da allora il “vizio” della scrittura non lo ha più abbandonato. Autore per Marsilio, Azimut, Clown Bianco, BookSalad e Fernandel, nel 2007 ha fondato Las Vegas edizioni, di cui è direttore editoriale. Insegna scrittura creativa nella Scuola internazionale di Comics a Torino. Per Edizioni Spartaco ha scritto il romanzo “Lungomare nostalgia” (2023) e “Prendi i tuoi sogni e scappa” (2025).IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

We take it for granted that through language and communication we can learn about the experience of others. But it remains unknown whether we can fully know what it is like to be another human being. James Baldwin and Jean-Paul Sartre take radically different approaches. For Sartre, the experience of others is unknown to us. Fundamentally, we are alone with our own subjectivity. While for Baldwin, "to encounter oneself is to encounter the other; and this is love". Summing up his disagreement with Sartre he remarked: "it has always seemed to me that ideas were somewhat more real to him than people.”Was Baldwin right that to be alive is to be socially connected to others? Or is Sartre's insight that the only thing we can know is our own experience more telling? Should we conclude that we cannot understand the experience of another unless we have had the same experience? Or is language capable of bridging the seemingly impossible gap between us?

VIII En la Francia de entreguerras, en un pequeño rincón de Le Mans, se gestó una historia que con el paso del tiempo se convertiría en uno de los casos más perturbadores y enigmáticos del siglo XX. Una historia que, a pesar de haber sido juzgada y archivada hace casi un siglo, continúa inquietando a estudiosos, criminólogos, psicoanalistas y artistas por igual. Lo que sucedió aquella tarde de febrero no solo sacudió a una ciudad entera, sino que sacó a la luz la fragilidad del alma humana y las tensiones invisibles que pueden incubarse en el silencio de un hogar. El relato gira en torno a dos hermanas: Christine y Léa Papin. Huérfanas desde jóvenes, ambas ingresaron muy pronto en el mundo del servicio doméstico, encontrando finalmente empleo en una casa de aspecto burgués, habitada por una familia aparentemente respetable. Durante años, cumplieron sus labores con una disciplina casi mecánica, sin mayores sobresaltos. Pero bajo esa superficie tranquila, se tejía una red densa de emociones contenidas, sumisión, rigidez y aislamiento. La casa en la que trabajaban, si bien estable y ordenada hacia afuera, era una olla de presión. Las hermanas, especialmente Christine, mostraban una relación intensa, cerrada sobre sí misma, en la que los vínculos familiares se entrelazaban con una dependencia emocional casi absoluta. Léa, más joven, seguía a su hermana mayor con una devoción que iba más allá del simple lazo de sangre. Nadie en la casa parecía ver el abismo que se formaba entre las hermanas y el mundo exterior. El caso, que capturó la atención de la prensa nacional y luego internacional, generó un torrente de interpretaciones. ¿Fue un acto de locura súbita? ¿Una rebelión contra la opresión de clase? ¿O el estallido inevitable de una mente fracturada por años de servidumbre, silencio y dolor? El juicio fue breve, pero el eco de sus implicaciones resonó durante décadas. Filósofos como Jean-Paul Sartre, escritores como Simone de Beauvoir y directores como Jean Genet encontrarían en este caso un espejo oscuro del alma humana y de la sociedad de su tiempo. Más allá de los hechos concretos, el caso de las hermanas Papin es una grieta por la que se puede vislumbrar algo más profundo: la violencia estructural, la represión emocional, la desigualdad social y los límites difusos entre el amor, la dependencia y la locura. Este relato no es solo la historia de un crimen, sino de una tragedia larvada, en la que el verdadero horror no está en lo que se hizo, sino en cómo se llegó a ello. En este episodio, exploraremos no solo los acontecimientos, sino el contexto, las personalidades implicadas y el impacto que este caso tuvo —y sigue teniendo— en la cultura y el pensamiento. Porque a veces, lo más perturbador no está en el acto, sino en las sombras que lo preceden.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is DR Shores, author of the book Shallow Stock. Raised on the Yorkshire coastline in the United Kingdom, D R Shores studied engineering prior to a twenty-five year career in business. Literature has always been a passion, with a taste ranging from Sigrid Nunez and Thomas Harris to established twentieth-century classics from Ernest Hemingway, Jean-Paul Sartre, Ayn Rand and Milan Kundera. Now living with his family and introverted dog in the east midlands area of England, his other interests include music, current affairs, volunteering and keeping fit.   In my book review, I stated Shallow Stock is a suspense thriller that will keep you reading well into the wee hours of the morning! I loved the story and the intricate plotlines. As an author, I was also intrigued by how all the threads came together in the end.   The story has a Hatfield and McCoy vibe. Two families are at 'war' and have been for several generations. They each own a competing corporation and work tirelessly to out do one another. Wynter McGlynn is the CEO of one. Julian Dayton is the CEO of the other. Both currently have issues holding onto their positions of power and see the other as their biggest obstacle. The competition is fierce, but is it fair?

Le couple est aussi un lieu de résistance et d'engagement pour les femmes. A l'occasion de la Journée internationale des droits des femmes le 8 mars, Bababam vous plonge dans l'histoire de ces couples d'exception comme Marie et Pierre Curie, Frida Khalo et Diego Rivera, Virginia Woolf et Vita Sackville West, ou encore Lee Miller et Man Ray... des couples au sein desquels l'épanouissement de la femme et lutte pour ses droits ont été primordiaux. Précurseur, il faut l'être, quand, près d'un siècle après sa rencontre, un couple reste un des modèles phares de l'émancipation et de l'amour libre. Simone de Beauvoir et Jean-Paul Sartre ont traversé le XXème siècle côte à côte. Leur union ne ressemblait à aucune autre. Elle n'a jamais entravé leur vie intellectuelle. La preuve, ils sont deux figures majeures de notre culture. Deux génies à égalité.

Simone de Beauvoir var den viktigste feministiske filosofen i det 20. århundret, men benektet selv at hun var filosof eller feminist. Hennes filosofiske originalitet har vært undervurdert. Det skyldes ikke minst at også hun selv i så stor grad tildelte Jean-Paul Sartre rollen som «den første», med den følge at hun selv ble «den andre». Hun hevdet at liv og filosofi var uløselig forbundet, men levde livet sitt på en måte som til dels var stikk i strid med hennes egen filosofi.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How do we fight back against the broligarchs? Journalist Gil Durán, of the must-read newsletters Nerd Reich and FrameLab, shows the way, in this week's Gaslit Nation.    Jean-Paul Sartre's famous line, “Hell is other people,” from his play No Exit, written in Nazi-occupied France, captured a grievance that mirrored the era's ideological clashes—fascism, communism, and isolationism, often overlapping and competing, fueling Stalin's genocides, the Holocaust, and World War II. The solution to sharing society with others, it seemed, was elimination: kill them.    This is why democracies rely on tolerance—you don't have to like my existence, but you must let me exist in peace. Yet today's tech oligarchs, having amassed unimaginable wealth, would rather invest billions in creating tech colonies and new religions to justify mass murder, enslavement, and C.E.O. king fiefdoms than address world hunger, provide free education, and strengthen social safety nets. Their vision isn't coexistence—they're building an anti-empathy billionaire bunker cult.    Gil Durán, a San Francisco journalist and former editorial page editor of The Sacramento Bee and The San Francisco Examiner, has a front-row view of the rise of the broligarchs, analyzing their fascist justifications for cruelty in his popular newsletter, Nerd Reich. Durán spent over a decade in California politics, serving as chief communications strategist for Governor Jerry Brown, Senator Dianne Feinstein, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, and Attorney General Kamala Harris. His work has appeared in The New Republic, Esquire, and PBS. He co-founded Framelab, a newsletter on politics, language, and the brain, with Dr. George Lakoff. Most importantly we discuss: how do we defeat the Nerd Reich and the Vichy Democrats?    This week's bonus for our Patreon subscribers at the Truth-teller level and higher continues with Gil Durán of Nerd Reich, examining Democratic leaders as controlled opposition—public allies secretly serving the oligarchs.

I'm 54 Years Old, and I Believe in Santa: A Reflection on Faith, Imagination, and the Spirit of ChristmasAt 54, when life yourself tethered to realism, routine, and rationality, I stand unashamed in saying that I believe in Santa. Not as a literal man sliding down chimneys but as a symbol, an idea, and perhaps even something more profound than the myth. Believing in Santa at this stage in life is an act of philosophical defiance—a conscious decision to keep faith in things unseen, embrace wonder, and acknowledge the value of imagination in a world too often consumed by cold facts.Faith Beyond the EmpiricalThe modern world urges us to reject what cannot be measured. It insists on what the philosopher Søren Kierkegaard called objectivity—truths dictated by science, reason, and evidence. And yet, I find that some truths transcend the measurable. Believing in Santa, in my mind, falls into the realm of what Kierkegaard called the leap of faith. It's about holding onto something more than what logic can explain—a belief in kindness, generosity, and joy. It is not about whether Santa Claus exists materialistically but whether we can live as though the principles he represents are real.Faith in Santa is a deliberate resistance against cynicism, an acknowledgment that the most valuable things in life—love, hope, joy—often elude the rigid structures of reason.The Necessity of ImaginationAs children, we are encouraged to imagine freely and explore worlds where reindeer fly and elves make toys. But as we grow old, imagination often falls by the wayside, crowded out by schedules, responsibilities, and the so-called serious matters of life. Yet imagination, as philosophers like Jean-Paul Sartre noted, is not a childish indulgence—it is an essential part of our freedom. Imagination allows us to conceive of what does not yet exist, dream of worlds better than our own, and engage with life's infinite possibilities.Believing in Santa, even at 54, is my way of keeping that imaginative spark alive. It's a reminder that life can be more than just predictable outcomes and measurable gains. It's permission to dream, even as we face the sometimes harsh realities of the world. Imagination is not escapism—it's a form of resistance, a way to say that the magic of life remains, even in adulthood.Santa as a Metaphor for KindnessSanta embodies the idea that goodness does not need an audience. He works in secret, expecting no recognition or reward. In this way, Santa reflects Immanuel Kant's notion of goodwill, where actions are judged not by their outcomes but by the purity of intention behind them. Santa's real or symbolic gifts remind us that kindness has intrinsic value, regardless of whether it is acknowledged.Believing in Santa means believing that altruism, though often hidden, is still possible. It is an invitation to embrace what Martin Heidegger might call being-for-others, a way of being that considers the welfare of others as inherently tied to our own. In a world where self-interest often dominates, Santa's spirit reminds us that there is still room for selflessness and that joy multiplies when shared.Christmas and the Time to Be Childlike AgainThere is a distinction between being childish and being childlike. The former implies immaturity, while the latter suggests an openness to wonder and delight. At its core, Christmas invites us to rediscover that childlike spirit—a time to believe in miracles, however small, and to allow ourselves to be moved by beauty and generosity. As C.S. Lewis said, "When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of being childish."At 54, believing in Santa means embracing that childlike sense of joy without apology. It means not being afraid to celebrate, to give without expecting anything in return, and to see magic in the mundane. It's a reminder that some of the most profound experiences in life—laughter, love, connection—require us to let go of our guarded selves and allow joy to seep in.The Spirit of Christmas: A Philosophy of HopeUltimately, my belief in Santa is not about the man in the red suit. It is about hope. The hope that light can be found even in the darkest moments. Christmas, with all its stories and symbols, is a reminder that joy is possible, even when life feels heavy. It is a call to believe in things that cannot be proven but can be felt—a nudge to live as though the world is still filled with wonder.To believe in Santa at 54 is to resist the temptation to become jaded. It is a conscious choice to say that life, even in its complexity, still holds room for magic. And perhaps that is the real gift of Santa—reminding us, year after year, that joy is not a relic of childhood but something we carry with us, if only we dare to believe.So yes, at 54, I believe in Santa. And in doing so, I believe in kindness, imagination, generosity, and hope. Life is better when we allow ourselves to be enchanted by it, even if only for a season. And that, to me, is the true spirit of Christmas.From mine to yours, have a wonderful and blessed Christmas, happy holidays, and a great New Year! This is a public episode.

Am citit și am discutat romanul Greața (Nausea) de Jean-Paul Sartre, publicat în 1938. Romanul are loc în „Bouville” (omofon al lui Boue-ville, literal, „Orașul noroios”), un oraș asemănător cu Le Havre, și cuprinde gândurile și experiențele subiective — sub forma unui jurnal personal — ale lui Antoine Roquentin, un intelectual melancolic și izolat social, care locuiește în Bouville aparent cu scopul de a completa biografia unui personaj istoric. Alienarea și deziluzia crescândă a lui Roquentin coincid cu o experiență tot mai intensă de repulsie, pe care o numește „greața”, în care oamenii și lucrurile din jurul său par să-și piardă toate calitățile familiare și recognoscibile. Titlul original al romanului lui Sartre înainte de publicare a fost Melancholia. ▶DISCORD: – Participă la următoarele discuții din book club: discord.gg/meditatii ▶DIALOGURI FILOSOFICE: – Română: soundcloud.com/meditatii/sets/dialoguri-pe-discord – Engleză: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLL…NYNkbJjNJeXrNHSaV ▶PODCAST INFO: – Website: podcastmeditatii.com – Newsletter: podcastmeditatii.com/aboneaza – YouTube: youtube.com/c/meditatii – Apple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/medi…ii/id1434369028 – Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/1tBwmTZQHKaoXkDQjOWihm – RSS: feeds.soundcloud.com/users/soundclo…613/sounds.rss ▶SUSȚINE-MĂ: – Patreon: www.patreon.com/meditatii – PayPal: paypal.me/meditatii ▶TWITCH: – LIVE: www.twitch.tv/meditatii – Rezumate: www.youtube.com/channel/UCK204s-jdiStZ5FoUm63Nig ▶SOCIAL MEDIA: – Instagram: www.instagram.com/meditatii.podcast – TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@meditatii.podcast – Facebook: www.facebook.com/meditatii.podcast – Goodreads: goodreads.com/avasilachi – Telegram (jurnal): t.me/andreivasilachi – Telegram (chat): t.me/podcastmeditatii ▶EMAIL: andrei@podcastmeditatii.com

American federal debt is growing faster than the GDP now. This year, the debt-to-GDP ratio stands at 121 percent. . . about fifth worst in the world. Interest payments on the federal debt have topped 36 percent of total tax receipts. And all of this has its roots in the Keynesian philosophies of the early 1920's and 30's. The present-orientedness, existentialism, and the ideology of Jean-Paul Sartre and John Maynard Keynes are what ran the 20th century and helped produce what we have today. So how much character would it require to reverse the worldview that has soaked our respective nations over the last 50-60 years? How much long-term vision would it take to turn the nation around? Probably a little more than what Elon Musk and Scott Bessett can offer. We review President Trump's pick for Secretary of the Treasury and revisit the history of modern economics on this edition of the program. This program includes: 1. The Worldview in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Kamala's bizarre video to supporters; TV channel fined for stating that abortion is leading death cause; Hal Lindsey, author of "The Late Great Planet Earth," died at 95) 2.

In this episode I look at Jean-Paul Sartre's Existentialism and Human Emotions with a focus on the failure of existentialism to acknowledge human nature.

In Part 1, we explicate Jean-Paul Sartre's attempt to build a total existential system hinges on an unusual account of the evanescent character of consciousness at the heart of the meaning of existence. In this episode, we cover the first half of Sartre's monumental work, Being and Nothingness, explaining core concepts derived from his philosophical progenitors found in Husserlian phenomenology and Heideggerian Existenz philosophy. After discussing Sartre's creative appropriations of these thinkers, we discuss the role of ontological nothingness, consciousness as a transcendence-within-immanence, bad faith, and ethical anguish. These concepts form the backbone of Sartre's unique system of phenomenological ontology that purports to avoid the pitfalls of subjective idealism and naive realism and instead deliver both the reality of consciousness and the world upon which it stamps its meaning and values.Please consider becoming a paying subscriber to our Patreon to get exclusive bonus episodes, early access releases, and future bookish merch: https://www.patreon.com/MoralMinorityFollow us on Twitter(X).Devin: @DevinGoureCharles: @satireredactedEmail us at: moralminoritypod@gmail.com

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION “Everything has been figured out, except how to live.”~Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980), French existentialist philosopher “God writes straight with crooked lines.”~Portuguese Proverb “[‘Acknowledge God in all your ways' (Proverbs 3:6)] has far more to do with one's experience of God than with comprehension of doctrinal points about God.”~John F. Evans, professor of Hebrew and Presbyterian clergyman “The poet only asks to get his head into the heavens. It is the logician who seeks to get the heavens into his head. And it is his head that splits.” “A madman is not someone who has lost his reason but someone who has lost everything but his reason”~G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936), author and literary critic “Isn't it interesting how simply being in proximity to God creates a moral self-awareness…? [T]here is something about God that is so pure, even if unspoken, that when near Him, it becomes so plain that nothing is like Him, especially in terms of righteousness.”~Jackie Hill Perry, Holier Than Thou: How God's Holiness Helps Us Trust Him “It is easier for us to get to know God than to know our own soul...God is nearer to us than our own soul, for He is the ground in which it stands...so if we want to know our own soul, and enjoy its fellowship, it is necessary to seek it in our Lord God.”  “The greatest honor we can give Almighty God is to live gladly because of the knowledge of his love.”~Lady Julian of Norwich (c. 1343-c.1416), theologian, anchoress, and mystic “I have come to one conclusion: All that I am, all that I aspire to be, all that I was before, is by the grace of God.”~Leymah Gbowee, Liberian peace activist, Nobel Peace Prize winner, and 2016 Dartmouth Commencement SpeakerSERMON PASSAGEProverbs 3:1-12 (ESV)Proverbs 31 My son, do not forget my teaching,  but let your heart keep my commandments,2 for length of days and years of life  and peace they will add to you. 3 Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you;  bind them around your neck;  write them on the tablet of your heart.4 So you will find favor and good success  in the sight of God and man. 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,  and do not lean on your own understanding.6 In all your ways acknowledge him,  and he will make straight your paths.7 Be not wise in your own eyes;  fear the Lord, and turn away from evil.8 It will be healing to your flesh  and refreshment to your bones. 9 Honor the Lord with your wealth  and with the firstfruits of all your produce;10 then your barns will be filled with plenty,  and your vats will be bursting with wine.11 My son, do not despise the Lord's discipline  or be weary of his reproof,12 for the Lord reproves him whom he loves,  as a father the son in whom he delights. Hebrews 12 5 And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons? “My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord,  nor be weary when reproved by him. 6 For the Lord disciplines the one he loves,  and chastises every son whom he receives.” 7 It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? 8 If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons. 9 Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits and live? 10 For they disciplined us for a short time as it seemed best to them, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness. 11 For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

In honor of the 420 episode, I decided to smoke a nice strong joint for this one while recording. And the topic pairs perfectly with weed: a philosophical discussion on the nature of life. Why are we here and what is the point of life? We'll summarize Friedrich Nietzsche's thoughts on nihilism, Albert Camus's musings on absurdism, and Jean-Paul Sartre's views on existentialism. Is there any real point to our lives? Does that matter? If there's no higher power watching over us or judging us, why even bother to try and be decent people? Why care at all about our fates? Getting deep today! And very, very high.
