>This basic idea of alienation picks out a range of social and psychological ills involving a self and other. More precisely, it understands alienation as consisting in the problematic separation of a subject and object that properly belong together.
What's the main source of alienation in our times and how do we stop it?
>When you see your reflection, you rejoice. Yet when you perceive your images, which have come into being from your Origin—which neither die nor represent—to what extent will they depend upon you?
>When you see your likeness, you rejoice. But when you see your images which came into being before you, and which neither die not become manifest, how much you will have to bear!
Lack of War. Lack of hero-kings to follow. Modern man are soldiers without a troop or captain.
we need to lick jew asses more that will make us feel better
>Haha dude, didn't you know, the "subject/object" divided is CARTESIAN! Don't talk about alienation or the dialectic of enlightenment anymore. It's stopping you from being in the world! Imagine how much happier you would be if you were open to other cultures' ways of having nature ready-at-hand! :)
>Haha dude, didn't you know, the "subject/other subject" divide is CARTESIAN! There are no "subjects" haha! There are only porous fluid intersubjectivities. :) Don't talk about the self-assertion of self-knowledge of the subject anymore! That leads to elitism and difference. Instead focus on being with others! :P
>Hahaha dude didn't you know! There is no "dialectical negativity," because negativity is simply EVERYWHERE! Haha! We're all negativity! We're all learning from eachother to become more fluid, more porous intersubjective eddies in one shared soupy medium of warm togetherness :) You don't want to be CARTESIAN do you?
>Haha dude! Didn't you know? You don't have a mind or a soul or consciousness, because thought is EMBODIED! The BODY is the primary site of thought :) Get in touch with your body or you won't be happy! Performativity, fluid intersubjectivity, fluid being together and being in the world and being in line at the Amazon store with your iPhone with your neck craned down at the iPhone doing the same thing as everyone else forever, those are all EMBODIED experiences in a shared medium! There are no "ideas" floating in a void, hahaha! Any more than there are subjects or souls floating in a void! All subjects are really immanent concrescences in a selfsame sea of embodeid sensuous feeling, linked together in a shared enjoyment of enjoying fun things and having fun! You'd be less fascist is you accepted that you're always already potentially a gay hedonist tranvestite! African cultures have a concept called "munga bongo" for nature that is sooo much better than our way of presencing matter; the LEAST bourgeois thing I can do is amorphously extend my existing centerless blob-self to absorb that conception of nature by reading ivory tower academic anthropology! I'm post-colonial AND post-Cartesian! Thank god capitalism is finally over! And to think, all it took was me getting a $400,000 liberal arts degree in how nothing exists and everything is a fluid extension of everything else and there is no "becoming," only a flat shimmering plane of eternally immanent "being!" I'm sooo happy now! Eat the rich ;) Vote for Hillary
'What is love? What is creation? What is longing? What is a star?' thus asks the last man, and blinks.
The earth has become small, and on it hops the last man, who makes everything small. His race is as ineradicable as the flea; the last man lives longest.
'We have invented happiness, say the last men, and they blink. They have left the regions where it was hard to live, for one needs warmth. One still loves one's neighbor and rubs against him, for one needs warmth...
Lack of meaningful interpersonal relationships.
Social media idiot
Materialism
the specific conditions that define late capitalism
to combat it we need to dismantle capitalism and reinstitute community and tradition in a healthy way
