Peter Singer on Hegel and Marx: Section 5

Sorry for the shaky video; the original tape had severe interlacing problems, this is the best I could fix it.

Hegel and Marx

In this program, contemporary philosopher Peter Singer discusses rational Hegelian philosophy, and the historicism and organicism at its root. Hegel's theories of absolute idealism and of a dialectic, emphasize history in their development of a model of reality. His concept of this reality as ultimately spiritual, and of philosophy as organic and constantly changing, is examined. The theories of Karl Marx are discussed as essentially Hegelian, but a practical economic spin.

As an American, it's really refreshing to see Communist ideas discussed rationally, not filtered through fear and propaganda.

They weren't going to the cause which leads men to compete: it's sexual capitalism. Men compete because women offer pussy for winners. If all women suddenly were no longer to be had sexually except to the thoughtful, self-effacing, silent, non-assertive lovers of truth w/o (!) central status as some sort of guru or obvious leader, the change could occur.

1st step: all men AND women must finance ALL children (not only their own), not the fathers.

(cont.)which lack any significant sexual impulse, and is driven by the bliss in the idea of knowledge. the rest of the populace who always have a big majority, before and now, and who spend their time enjoying the immidiate pleasure dispensible to them are condemned to follow, whatever the thinking lot dictate to them , before and now.

f you are old(22+) and romancing with this idea since your teenage, you must break this inertia for your ideas are base and lack any intellectual merit.

much of the scientific development which has changed the socal and political appearence of our society and is gradually transforming the culture towards an unknown modernity( with constant rate of growing sterility) is the result of scientific researches and philosophical inquiries

I am around the odd portion of Youtube once again.

@JerseyFinch read the literature, discussion makes no sense otherwise. Women dependent again ? No way ! I am not saiying MOTHERS will be supported. Their CHILDREN will be ecomonically supported by all, not the men, by the women too.

So I am suggesting a real adult status for women - which they statistically abhor because it brings with it equal responsibility, not just rights, it is the end of their priviledged luxury existence through acceptable forms of prostitution.

@inar921 "sexual lust is still a far less significant driving force to do something or compete with somebody for. the obsession there is to expand and control as much possible."

Control for the sake of securing oneself access to sex.

"sexual attraction is a temporary"

OMG how naive !! For the same woman yes ! But that's not what men are interested in. Men want to control because when they are 90 years old, they still want to fuck another 19 year old every week. Their wives ???hahaha
