Look, I’m a Redditor. This is my first day on 4chan.org. I did not know which board to go to so I picked the one that seems to be the least racist and the most peaceful, Literature Board.I have been seeing a lot of pictures of Hegel on here and as a Redditor and a communist, I know he is very important to our movement. I want to understand him more deeply and his philosophy. Can you explain to me to the best of your ability, the importance of Hegel and his book the phenomenology of spirit and its impact to philosophy. Thank you.
>>23325847Besides trying to farm (You)s with this weak b8, do you actually want to know about hegel?
>>23325847Read the book. If you don't get it, read the book before the book. If you still don't get it, read the book before the book before the book, and so on, until you're unearthing scraps of clay tablet in the sand looking for the lost philosophy of Oo-Oo-Ahh-Mai-Tinga from the lost Bubu-Babalaba Civilization with a sweaty British National Museum sidekick who will definitely not have sex with you.

Marx isn't even of concern to Marxists even-- Lenin, Stalin, Mao. Go do your Antichrist thing; they at least are open about the sham.

>>23325847Totally fake, but brilliant bait, I genuinely guffawed
>>23325847Read Pinkard, Hypolitte, and Zizek. Avoid Brandom, Pippin, and Kojeve.
>>23326224>Zizek
>>23326274As much as /pol/fags seem to hate him for no obvious reason other than he has a speech impediment and hardcore leftists hate him for his politics his work is essentially THE reading of Hegel for most of continental Europe today. Like it or not the man is a respected academic with influence and as long as you steer clear of his obviously pop-philosophy books you’re in for an extremely lucid rendition of Hegel. It’s only Americans that read Brandom and Pippin and subscribe to their bastardizations of Hegel.
>>23326381>no obvious reasonother than his obsession with cocksucking soros and greta thunberg, and his absolutely retarded, supposedly communist dream of living around racial strangers completely alienated from everyone as if that isn't already the de facto experience for anyone living in a big city.But when it comes to hegel I have nothing to say.
>>23325847TL;DR Consciousness itself is the sole subject of history. Subject/object is a a false dichotomy, it really is just consciousness/consciousness- reflected into itself. You/me, slave/master, being/nothingness, thing-for me/thing for itself are similar false dichotomys and all contain an impicit or hidden third term between them which disolves their dichotomy
>>23326381I don’t like him because he sniffs a lot and I autistic audiosensory issues so I refuse to engage him. That’s life, I guess.
>>23325847Start with Beiser's German Idealism, then his Hegel book.
