As usual...eloquent, revealing, and informative. I particularly like to ponder the issue of becoming or being authentic while still being in a world immersed by 'The They'.

I love how many philosophical authors you incorporate into one video. I am trying to read a lot of them right now myself.

Cuck Philosophy and Contrapoints are good at overviewing the post-Modernists, and the Frankfurt School without getting involved in the pseudo-fascist fluff that exists on KZread. If you listen to Podcasts Philosophize This is great as well for virtually everything.

@@ShrimpBarbarian They are good for avoiding the neo-facists. Although, if someone wants a comprehensive understanding of these ways of thinking, and wants to discuss these topics in detail, reading is the most efficient way to do so.

@@ShrimpBarbarian don't get me wrong, I love Cuck philosophy and especially Contrapoints, their discourse and aesthetics are incredibly thoughtful and ingenious.

Great video. The internet is a new factor, political stances become amplified in like minded groupings, conspiracies are thrown around, the silent majority is electric with chatter.

Great job on the cinematic aspects of these videos. I love the content as well, but I just thought I’d mention my appreciation of the aesthetics, as they are often given less attention. Well done.

Keep it up. Thanks for this beautiful description. Pls continue this channel as long as possible. Cheers 👍

Great work! Kierkegaard’s “The Present Age” would have been a fine addition to this video.

Would be interested in a follow up video based on Edward Bernays and manufacturing Public Opinion (aka Propaganda), as well as the ascent in the 20th century of the role of Academia in the design of Public Opinion as “thought leaders”, “brain trusts?, and vanguards.

Brilliantly conceptualized video. Thank you.

your videos are so soothing somehow.

Great job!

Brilliant as always, however, I know it’s not the main thrust of the video but I don’t think Rousseau’s engagement with the notion of the public is properly portrayed. His view of amore propre which is the behaviour and image of oneself cultivated in recognition of oneself as a member of a public forms a vital part of his critical literature. But lots of love for your content as always, a nice break to my library session!

Excellent

Brilliant as always.

Really seems like "the public" should really be "the public good" and it should include all, the past people, the present people, the future people, and even the planet and all life on the planet. "The public" in terms of the collection of all citizens of all countries should be the caretakers and responsible representitives of that wider, broader, and more abstract public.

Sufficient description, lacking criticism.

I think the question is "What is the Public?" "Public" is singular and it is not a person.

Si pudieras subtitular los vídeos te agradeceria.

I propose this as the Video of the Year! (Get that, Google)

But what is the alternative? How can organizations take massive polls, while being simultaneously open and transparent? This sounds like a depressing catch 22.

Perhaps there are no core understanding of philosophy in general. That is to say philosophy is decentered. A reader does not have a simple summary of the ideas. A feel of nihilism. Not negation but lack of central idea.
