I did not make that response to Marten on here 12 hours ago, although I have made that statement other places. I'm the co-author of What is the Hegelian Dialectic? which explains our entire thesis on Hegel..My youtube account has obviously been hacked. This is just too weird. Why?
This is just an attack on bad applications of communitarianism. Com. is not light socialism or light marxism, com. is a way of handling the fact that free, individual action doesn't always result in the best outcome for the individuals. Take CO2-levels for example, no one has personal benefits from not polluting a resource that can't be private property (the atmosphere), but it's still in everyones interest to not do it. This is a case of the prisoners dilemma.
@MartenThuren, Communitarianism is the synthesis in the Hegelian dialectic, the dialectical theory that Marxist ideology is based upon. It's called socio-economics..the perfect balance between capitalism and communism.
@Alaskatentlady I'm not a philosopher, but isn't hegelian dialectics just "actually, neither extreme side is right, we need to be more specific"? What i mean is that com. isn't motivated by just the badness of capitalism and socialism but by other factors :)
Oh, joy. Two illiterate wingnuts who have never read a damn thing in their lives, on the radio talking political philosophy.
This is like listening to two hugely obese guys telling you how to run fast and jump high.
