So in that matter, in his disdain for Romanian Christian beliefs, Cioran is right.

Nietzsche is easily the most misunderstood philosopher of all time. The irony is that he's so misunderstood, that even for people who understand him, it's simply easier to use people's misunderstanding of him to connect with people and make a point, even if Nietzsche himself would argue the point he was making was quite to the contrary of what most people think of his philosophy. It's one of the rare learning tools that is wrong but still useful in its wrongness that a lesson can be taught.

@@SpiderMan-gf1lc He did not hate people he "hated" humanity as a social construct and he was fair enough to include himself into that. He openly loved life and in most of his works he expressed this manically. One could make a psychoanalytical counter-argument that his extremely pathetic (as in full of pathos) love for life (eternal return) was a coping mechanism because he was a very physically sick man (there is some truth to that). Nietzsche wanted to overcome human limits which he saw as cultural and ingrained into language. This is actually his biggest strength- remember he was primarily a philologist. I dont even understand why so many people get nietzsche wrong. He is pretty straight forward and even hyperbolic and repetitive because he did not want to be misunderstood. His life philosophy is exactly opposed to being cynical and vain but kind and hospitable yet assertive and individualistic. Schopenhauer was more of a straight up misanthrope. Nietzsche was just very direct and polemic or "cheeky" when he made fun of the human condition. He is actually really funny, I laughed multiple times reading his work. I do get the gloomy view people have of nietzsche though. Sometimes I really did not buy his love of life and he appeared desperate to me. Still love the guy, he has had a big influence on my life.

As a romanian who spent his adolescence reading the entire work of Emil Cioran, I find this video ... innapropriate for someone who wants to find joy in modern philosophy. First of all, Cioran was, most of the time, a joker. He was propably the funniest philosopher that ever lived. Of course, a dark serious-minded sage at the top of the mountains will find his work as a silly pessimistic joke, but you should read him cum grano salis. Also, he was a good friend with Mircea Eliade (the greatest historian of religions, a fouvorite of Jordan Peterson tho), Eugen Ionesco, Samuel Beckett, Michaux and so on.... He wasn't really a far-right guy, but he really detested the reign of Carol II, writting "The Transfiguartion of Romania" which criticized the romanian people, being slightly inferior or very inferior in comparison with other nations (e.g. Bulgaria and Serbians had empires, Romania not). Later on, Carol II established a dictatorship. He shortly moved in Berlin for his studies. He praised Hitler for a better treatment in Germany, but he wasn't an antisemite, his best friend was a jew, burned at Auszchwitz. He wrote mostly for him, his books were most likely some attractive thougts for his friends, he never imagined that he would ever gain succes. Just to be clear, I did't wrote this thing in order to defend Cioran and my adolescence, I think just that he can change your life for the better if you find a shelter in his words. Most of those informations were took from his interviews and a book called "Mon pays". I doubt that you can find a translation in english.

As a romanian, we learn little or never about Cioran in school. But what i truly think about Cioran and his life is that even tho he despised his existance and the mediocrity of people around him driven by tasteless music and sex, he still managed to be more full of life than the others. His opinions fueled his rage and his words and thus made him more of a human than others. He was born in the same cold world that both me and you were born into, but it always reflected into who he was, making him still a better person to spend time with than the faceless dolls we pass each day

Some time after i started researching him and while i can say i am more optimistic than he is and see far more ways in kindness, his works often make me feel less alone in my suffering, cioran wrote a lot on death and suicide but actually never saw suicide as a valid option, more of a thought to comfort oneself. In an interview he once stated that his works don't acurately describe him as he only writes during moments of total dispair. This video was great! Learned something new

I really thank you for taking a look in Cioran's life , being one of my most beloved philosophers , you've made my day.

It's strange to hear about philosophy I could have written if I were born 80 years sooner, maybe I should try writing before I die.

I owe Cioran a lot. I love his books. I recommend it to anyone who is looking for consolation in the most difficult times.

I've read a few of Cioran books. He can express some of the most nihilistic/dark ideas one can imagine with very beautiful prose. In his own way he loved life.

"it has seriously changed my whole pocket situation". finally talking about the real issues in life

My old man was a paramedic. He said many people just before death were calm, understood, and had peace with their demise; understandably disturbed, but without panic or terror. Usually had concern for their family but otherwise just went with the current. Perhaps he could've enjoyed his life if he had this vantage point as a child.

Oh my god, I’m so glad I just discovered your channel on accident! I love philosophy (especially the darker sides of it) but often I’m too lazy to read into it, because most books about the subject are written way too complicated for my intellect, but you found such a great balance between explaining everything in an understandable and interesting way. Keep it up man!

Thank you for this, it’s eye opening since my ego was sensitive. I was in 10th grade making beats and starting up as a producer, your music won’t be so great most of the time till you find yourself as an artists, so the feedback id get would vary making music and for some reason everytime someone didn’t like the music, I could sense if they’re being genuine or not, and this would hurt my ego. I’d start thinking my music is bad, and I kept this state of mind till 2 years later. Growing as a producer I started to get better and many people told me some songs were really good, but still the ones who didn’t like my music would still hurt my ego and I’d stop music from time to time cuz of that. Idk I always felt like I needed society’s approval, and I tell myself I don’t but I still get sucked up in that state of mind, this video was very informative and thank you cuz it helped me see how to take things and to not put myself on to high expectations. I can’t please everyone and thank u for making me realize this

I honestly find Cioran's work incredibly funny to read, for the most part. It maybe not have been what he wanted but to me there's obviously some really dark sense of humour that permeates his writing. I find a lot of the stuff he writes hard to take seriously, almost satirical of philosophy, but in some others he really nails it. An interesting man, nonetheless, even funnier that he lived 84 years, imagine his contempt.

What an incredible video dude. your content is truly amazing!

I read Cioran's A Short History of Decay after watching The School Of Life's video on him, and I wonder whether that channel falls into the trap of romanticising depression. Alain De Botton always has to squeeze a positive out of everything but sometimes thinking isn't meant to be a feel good exercise

I mean tbf wanting to have someone to share your depressive and pessimistic ideas with does seem pretty enticing and that seems to be the positive that Alain de Botton wants us to take away. but tbf being in a community of pessimists (especially one that is full of the types of pessimists that would rather laugh at life's expense rather than wallow in their misery like Cioran) is definitely a slippery slope, but misery loves company, I guess.

There's a definite spiritual tinge, besides buddhist influences, where suffering is seen as producing great metamorphoses and the most valuable metaphysical revelations.

Hey I've seen you in a favorite movie of mine! Just wanted to say I really enjoyed your performance!

Wow. Just wow. Thank you for this. Never heard of this guy before.

Sometimes I wonder if guys like this ever had subjective fun in life. Philosophy is cool and thinking about the abyss is great and all when you're alone, but if you've ever had just a day around friends or people you enjoy being around then its hard, nearly impossible to keep this kind of mindset 24/7. Sure we may be temporary in the vast expanse of infinity, but I'd rather enjoy my short time on this planet then be a total bummer to everyone I'm around.

Maybe this man didn't have friends and spent the majority of his time reading/learning/and writing philosophy. I had a professor at my college like this, he spent all day just doing philosophy. But what sounds fun is if you have friends that also like philosophy and you can talk with them about it.

I’m probably odd in that I found many of his thoughts supremely hilarious, but then again you did mention his humorous aspects. I think he’s right about much, but was missing some of the keys that Camus discovered about living it up despite the fact that it might not have permanent meaning or grand purpose. That, and curtailing one’s hedonism just enough not to cause misery to loved ones, is my answer to the problem of existence! Come what may, devil may care, see yourself as the heroic character who falls flat on his ass to humiliating waves of laughter, gets up, and joins right in with sincerity. It’s all just a dream, right? See you, space cowboy. You’re gonna carry that weight.

This actually made me feel better about me and my failures

Thank you for your content.

If you want a bit more detailed introduction to Cioran, I'd recommend listening to the 2 episodes that my boy Stephen West from the "Philosophize this" podcast made on him. He makes quite a comforting argument as to how much of Cioran's writing can be underrstood as an affirmation of life - really liked it.

Toured Romania a couple years ago and loved it . The country is beautiful ,it's history is fascinating , the food was great , the friendly people are descendants of the many nations , original and invaders from all directions . It is certainly understandable how its social\political turmoil over the century's could cause an intelligent sensitive artist enough sturm und drang .

i got interested in philosophy during my highschool years and took up some of his books and started reading i started with on the heights of despair,one of my favourite books that ive ever read he wrote a lot about suicide and depression but always said that suicide is the cowards way out and it shouldnt be a valid option,or an option at all. i regret not marking my favourite quotes from his books because i wouldve shared them but reading his work felt unusually heartwarming,i felt like i wasnt alone in my misery,and oh what misery highschool brought. needless to say i quit reading philosophy soon after because i didnt have the mental capacity of understanding or reflecting on what was being said.

He wasn't the scariest philosopher he was he could just see the absurdity of the world we lived in and he called it out he basically embodied the terror management theory

@@thegrandnil764, well it's not really internal intuition, it's more like a different perspective towards life. Like, if you look at it, life is absurd. What makes it that people have to suffer, and others have great lives like you? And just the meaningless of it all, that no matter what, someday, anything you ever did, accomplish, will be gone, not even memories of it will be left. This is how absurd life is, but that's only my perspective on it. Like this philosopher, who just saw life as a mistake instead of a gift for others. We have all our views on life, and that's the beauty of philosophy.

Being pessimistic only distracts you from your suffering for so long.

Awareness of suffering alone doesn't improve one's mentality. There is a diffrence between accepting one's suffering to move beyondi it, and seeing nothing but misery as the only possibility life has to offer.
