    this topic is very important but there's another more long-term paradox in play that no one acknowledges: it is impossible for man to rule himself with equity in any sustainable way because: Governments are corrupt to the extent that they are allowed to operate in secret. Secrecy guarantees that no accountability exists. Yet some affairs must be confidential to some extent. And groups within a government can always conspire in secret. In other words, a completely transparent government is impossible. Those who ignore or deny this paradox are subjects to those who desire to rule over them.

    There is a section in the Twilight of the Idols "How the 'Real World' at last Became a Myth" History of an error. In this short section Nietzsche describes this process of the mutation of this platonic idea. At the end of the day, though, Nietzsche's conclusion was that looking at the world through definitions is a wrong way to do that. 'Only that which has no history can be defined'. Thank you Sir for this lecture and all the videos on your channel. I have used this material not only to learn about philosophy but also to learn English. Many thanks.

    Hello, Daniel. Are you planning to make a video of Elizabeth Anscombe 'Intention'? I find it super cool her definition of intentional action which is those actions that a person knows what are they doing it (without observation) and why they are doing it (whithout observation). I'm trying to be more intentional in life and this book has help me with it.

    This is a very generous reading of Heidegger - the idea can easily be twisted into understanding modes of being more or less authentic, and the human expressions being worth more or less, offering some support for exterminating the inauthentic. I wish that weren't so, but explains the facts on the historical ground.

    The fact that there is no color something is “normally” is a Buddhist insight. Even something as ‘direct’ as the color of something has no existence independently of everything else, no fundamental nature. If you cannot say of the visual appearance of an object that it gives any information about its existence independent of other things, how much can you say of the independent existence of anything?

    Professor Bonevac, I wanted to ask you a question about analytic:synthetic distinction, which you explained in one of your videos: are geometry theorems analytic or synthetic? Typically abstract representations of geometric figures are used to prove these theorems. But some axioms in geometry can’t be proved and were found empirically.

    So based on the Categorical Imperative, if I can universalize the maxim that all people should speak their truth, whatever it may be, regardless of the feelings of others, so long as it does not DIRECTLY lead to them experiencing physical pain, then they can themselves share their truth with the community ad nauseam. This means that if this person was a racist, they could tell other people their racist thoughts, so long as that other person was free to share their thoughts, and the racist would be moral in doing this.

    • @PhiloofAlexandria
      @PhiloofAlexandria 20 дней назад

      No-physical pain is irrelevant-it would fail to treat people with respect as ends in themselves, and thus would fail to be universalizable, since all rational beings value their own rationality.

      @shaunkerr8721 20 дней назад

      @@PhiloofAlexandria I (the hypothetical I here who is a racist, sexist, etc. for the means of this argument alone) would consider telling the truth, my truth, as respecting everyone. My understanding is that Kant held one ought to tell the truth at all cost, including if an axe murderer came to your door and asked "Where is your wife?" To lie for her sake is wrong; all you can do is what is honest and let the chips fall where they may. So from my perspective, telling my truth and everyone telling their truth is the respectful way forward and it does treat people as ends in themselves. It is treating other people as they have value in themself and not because they can protect my status, enhance my career, keep me safe, etc. Every time I lie to someone and do not share my racist, misogynist, etc. perspective it is because I am using them as a means to maintain my career, not be cancelled, not get attacked by a group who took offense to my words, etc. To treat them as an end in themselves should I not tell the truth at all cost at all times? This stops me from treating my interactions with them as a means to my comfort, safety, contentment, status, etc. and honestly treat them as an end in themselves.

    I think Kant's view on ethics makes more sense if we accept the idea that he is attempting to apply Rousseau's concept of the general will to ethics. “All wills lie in one will,” said Kant. Rousseau was also interested in universality -- eliminating all the particular wills that contradict each other to arrive at a general will. But of course he was more interested in the political. I like that term "compossible."

    What did Jesus say when he was called good? "There is only one that is good." I think Kant is really contradictory. He has a way of hiding his contradictions in jargon. In Christian tradition how is morality viewed? In the book of Job it is made clear that morality does not insure you (indemnify) against suffering. What is Kant trying to say about morality, with these Biblical views in mind? That the goodness he prescribes and formulates from "reason" is equivalent to God's goodness? Obviously not, as God's will is not equal to man's will. So what then? That behavior prescribed by reason is the only impulse that can be called morality? That the "traditions" of morality prescribed by Religions are not..valid? That his formula of morality is infallible? Infallible to whom? To one's self or God? The flaw in his thinking is that he disregards the past, or, more specifically, the unknown. Who can imagine a "universal law"? Even the Laws of Physics have exceptions. Was Kant conceited? It is a wonder no philosopher made his own reputation refuting and exposing Kant. His jargon is beyond forgiveness. Much less interpretation.
