Slavoj Žižek & Yuval Noah Harari | Should We Trust Nature More than Ourselves?

Are we above nature? How can we combat extremism? How do extreme ideologies often become their opposite?
In a lively discussion between Slavoj Žižek and Yuval Noah Harari, the two thinkers debate extremist ideology, our role in nature, the notions of good and evil, and catastrophes of the past. The conversation is moderated by Günes Taylor, and was filmed on June 2, 2022 as part of the HowTheLightGetsIn Festival.

    @@abmas1901 it’s elementary. It’s also merely semantics. Of course I agree, that everything is nature including us and our works. On the other hand though, that is only true V according to one definition of nature, and when we present this topper of semantics argument, it is actually infantile to not acknowledge the simple fact that words have multiple definitions and that this agreement Olly hold true by definition, and we are referring to a word with multiple definitions. This whole “debate” is on its face intellectually bankrupt. I respect both of the participants, but this is not as debate, it’s presented in a highly misleading format, and there is clearly an agenda behind it, but that agenda is not opaque, despite its obviousness. Ultimately this all boils down to a complete loss of credibility. False dichotomies are bad enough, but here the false dichotomy is so shabbily contrived that it is embarrassing at best, and disturbingly tragic at worst.

    There's a biiiig problem right from the outset here-we're driving an entirely ariticial distinction between people and nature. We are natural phenomena, the things we do are natural by definition. When we talk about good and bad, we are talking about good and bad in relation to a moral agent-someone who either does good or bad things, or observes them. As philosophical naturalists, to the extent good and bad even exist, they only exist in and because of human minds. Nature is not good or bad, except insofar as we are beings with moral intuitions, and we interpret natural phenomena in a moral way. We are part of nature, and we give it a morality. That interpretation can be guided by an interpretation of the directionality of nature-what is it doing through the course of natural evolution? Yes, it's true, bad things happen in nature. But whereas climates are prone to wild fluctuations, ecosystems tend to regulate and normalize them, creating shade, slowing water cycles, fixing landscapes in root networks, preserving nutrients by moving them upstream, and a myriad of other functions. The consequences of these tendencies are increased genetic diversity, a calmer and more livable climate, and, as our evolution demonstrates, a support structure for organisms with greater and greater levels of subjectivity and sophistication. When "bad" things happen in nature, they invariably happen in an attempt to move toward this state of affairs in the context of deprivation. These things are not good or bad in and of themselves-they're good or bad in our interpretation of them. But our interpretation of them is really just nature evaluating nature.

    While at one level I agree, isn't it also interesting that 1) when we closely observe ourselves and our thinking process, we find that thoughts just arise (many spiritual traditions have pointed this out) and there is no one/homunculus behind the thoughts making or doing them. They arrive and we experience them, really just in the same way we experience feelings or anything else. This is relevant to me because it says something, imo, about this 'agent' idea. 2) If we are not in fact separate from nature, and we might even question this notion of a deliberate agent, then is it not true that nature is in fact the one with the moral attitude? (so to speak). Nature has physical laws, nature has reproduction, nature has natural selection, and seemingly too, nature has morals -- in the form of the human being. We are an evolutionary step of nature, in that sense.

    Yes. But resources are limited. As long as you have a surplus, you can spend it to feel like benefactors, kind and good humanists. But when the surplus runs out, it's time to choose who will get what is now missing for everyone. Usually, as a result, the stronger, more arrogant, cunning gets resources. The rest will fight for crumbs and die. Economic crisis, energy crisis, natural or man-made disaster, war - it's a time of choice.

    It’s good to observe and understand the natural functioning of things in the world around us so we can better play ourselves. Nature is everything real. The world isn’t merely your idea of it or what you wish it was. Studying the nature of things is an exercise in humility that ultimately brings us up. We don’t see clearly enough because we’re too comfortable taking secondhand information. We agree with the people we like and it eventually distorts our outlook. Naturalism is a good influence on any culture.

    I can see Yuval's moderation point of view and his call for rejecting the binary frame as being influenced by Buddha's middle way teaching that transcends extremisms (good vs bad). As per human nature, we always want more of a good thing. Extremism is when too much of a good thing is a bad thing. The second influence of Buddhism was Yuval's point rejecting good vs bad as ethical criteria and his definition of unethical actions being those that cause suffering.

The story of “Sapiens” echoes the Buddha’s “basic realities”: constant change; no enduring essence; the inevitability of suffering. “Yes, to some extent,” Harari said. “It’s definitely not a conscious project. It’s not ‘O.K.! Now I believe in these three principles, and now I need to convince the world, but I can’t state it directly, because this would be a missionary thing.’ ” Rather, he said, the experience of meditation “imbues your entire thinking.” www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/02/17/yuval-noah-harari-gives-the-really-big-picture

And no - moderation is not always the answer. It was good that world banded together to bomb, decimate and afterwards hang the Nazis. Unimaginable suffering was prevented because Hitler's Regime was stopped by brute force. Extreme action was necessary to stop extreme suffering. Moderation is not safe.

Then, him on silo syndrome - or local optimization vs more global one - around 36min. (that is like egocentric idea as oppose to to get to wisdom) Toward the end, again Harari, related to complexity theory - or Kegon/Avatamsaka sutra.

    I think our mind is the middle man in how we see ourselves as a part of nature (or not) and I think that is what they say. We are nature and at the same time our mind learns how to interpret nature and it's workings often as separate systems. That is our big pro and big con as a species and depending on many things, but mainly our culture and history we will learn to relate to nature differently. Yes it can be an instructor, but only when we have learned how to learn from nature. Look at many animals, they need guidance for a while when they are born. To help find food, hunt, use basic tools, how the seasons move and what that means for their environment. So it's not an instructor by itself. It is nature doing nature. Like we are also in a way. Just depends on how you zoom your lens in our out.. Leave a baby alone and it will die. Leave an older child alone with no previous knowledge and experience about how to live with and/or from nature and it will probably also die.

    Interesting point of view. Technically parasites are organisms living in a specific environment, giving some good and bad, depends how well both organisms adapt, they start to live in symbiosis. It is also parasites task, not to kill the host, unless being suicidal. "complete genome sequences of cyanobacteria and of the higher plant Arabidopsis thaliana leave no doubt that the plant chloroplast originated, through endosymbiosis, from a cyanobacterium."

    Yuval, you said the question should not be whether something is natural or not, because all is nature; but rather that the question should be: does it cause suffering? I agree that suffering is the most important factor to be taken into consideration in this reality, especially the imposition of suffering on others who cannot consent to it when there is no need to impose the suffering or risk of suffering on them in the first place.... Given your outlook re. suffering, would you please care to elaborate on your views re. Antinatalism i.e. the view that it is always morally wrong to create life primarily because of the suffering such an imposition would cause for the person born. Thank you.

    It wouldn't be morally wrong to create life. In order for a person to consent it needs consciousness, and that is assuming the person has free-will (which we already don't) so creating life would neither be moral or immoral.

They debate as if they themselves were able to decide what is good or bad, whereas they are simply part of "Nature", in other words of "Creation".

The primordial observed phenomenon is the phenomenon "existence of the Universe". This phenomenon is primordial because without it, no other phenomenon would exist. Therefore, the existence of the Universe necessarily implies the existence of a primary cause at its origin.
