Ep. 66 Hegel Part 3

10/30/19 • 25 min

This week Danny and Mike watch in mild amusement as Hegel argues that his is bigger than anyone else's and he’ll fight anyone who says otherwise. Listen with mounting concern as Georg starts sounding off about how he isn’t really a racist but that Germany rules, love it or leave it! Is the Spirit on tour and keeping its good stuff for the Western venues or are the audiences shouting out “play the greatest hits!!” All this and an opportunity for us all to relax in the hot tub and get to know each other better. Last one in is a positivist!

Are we more individual in combination with others or should we go it alone like the rugged Enlightenment individuals Descartes brought us up to be? Who is your daddy? While Hegel offers us nothing less than nirvana who is sitting nearby offering us romance, sweets and existential puppies? Only time and subsequent casts will tell.

This week Hegel reveals his true colours as he seeks to assimilate our biological and cultural distinctiveness into his own. Raise your shields in hopeless defiance as dialectical inevitability cuts into your hull and extracts all the good stuff to further the universal collective. Resistance is futile, who will save us? Will it be Marx or has he already succumbed to the lure of metaphysical inevitability? Perhaps our only hope is take a leap of faith, abandon ship and trust ourselves to the void. Spoilers
