@Benny Bunter read the first half with us

But yeah to just straightforwardly uphold Hegel would be a LARP increasingly since then. Some people have even made an online career out of it

Its the perspective of the high pomp of the Enlightenment. His philosophy is talked about as the German equivalent in thought of the French Revolution, almost like they’re interchangeable as events/signifiers in that way. A very confident outlook that fell out of favor and was never really ever...

Very mysterious lifestyles you two

I’m driving a forklift right now

I don’t understand how either of you could afford to do that

Pretty Hegelian quote actually

@luka

Yeah @vershy versh in Platypus one of the founders whose a bit sour on the Hegelianism was in a reading group the week we did that Hegel text and was challenging everyone to explain how his view of history isn’t a secularized theology. I didn’t really have a response other than though that might...

He will read it and it will convince him that Reason is actually pretty neat, pretty badass

@vershy versh Yeah Philosophy of History is a big long book but the Introduction’s 125 pages and stands on its own, thats why its sold in a little volume on its own which is the pdf I linked. And the children’s guide by Marcuse I linked luka has, its just the first 200 pages that are strictly on...

They decided not to destroy humanity because Bud loves his wife. Our end of the bargain is that we must “stop playing with childish things.” Then a guy turns to the military commander and says “looks like you’re out of a job!” because the aliens have affected defense spending by making the tidal...

We also loved the guy who wanted to nuke the aliens up to the very end. He was a great cartoonish villain. Obviously a metaphor for anti-USSR paranoia. Cameron buried tons of subtle messages in there, for those with eyes to see of course

That and then me and linebaugh will do a punk thread and then I’ll get kicked off this website

Everyone watch this to have a good laugh today

@sus the most embarrassing part of Abyss is probably at the end when Bud salutes one of the sea aliens and it salutes him back

I had this in middle school

Nope
