we only get to truth through arguments
Aller guten Dinge sind drei.

>>25494930thought is the thought of thought!
Estrangement and self-equality are not two sides of the same coin or two elements, but rather one continuous movement constantly sublatingThe book is infuriating because it resists simple "X is Y" because those are stating fixed things, externals, you want nothing nothing left behind just the subject's own movement. It's fruitless to try and assemble a clever picture because it always involves the external.
>>25495439(cont) but assembling the images is still a useful diagnostic for METABOLISING why those spatial terms don't work, it's how you can form your way to understanding
>>25495439Damn I might have to read Hegel
>>25495452All determination is negation, not simply that "X is anything not-X", but rather NOT-X IS NOTHING BUT THE CONTENT OF X, WE LOOK AT THE NEGATIVE AND SEE THE POSITIVE REFLECTED BACK AND IN THAT MOMENT REALISE IT IS ONE.
>>25492795That Hegel in fact was not very good at thinking things through and relied heavily on rhethorics. Although his arguments are not always very good, his positions are. But I did not read Hegel for the sake of understanding Hegel. I read Hegel for the sake of knowing what the guys from Pittsburgh are talking about
>>25495642>That Hegel in fact was not very good at thinking things throughWhat exactly do you mean by this?
That there actually is an absolute.
>>25492795that if you write a tome of nonsense with slivers of coherence and deigned with the authority of a state you can have hordes of loyal devoted sycophants who prostrate at your every word
>>25492795nothing; I haven't read it.
>>25496768It's very carefully thought out, you haven't read it
who what where why when
Why the fuck does this board have so many people sucking off this guy? it is actual unintelligible schlock. Schopenhauer was exactly correct when he called this guy out for "pseudo-philosophy" that is exactly what he did.It sounds like something was said, but if you actually take the time to comprehend the mumble of words it's just bunk.Reality isn't shaped by ideas. Reality is, Ideas are.He preaches hippie shit, "we are all in a system interconnected that's governed by rational processes" wooooowWhen your verbiage is so dense, yet your meaning so imprecise you've effectively said nothing at all. Because it can be interpreted in any way one chooses.If you think reality is shaped by ideas, not action you're insane.I hope to god all you people read John Locke, and open your eyes. This man was a sick mentally deranged innkeeper. Avoid Hegel like the plague.
>>25497081>Reality isn't shaped by ideasHegel never claims this, he takes the opposite positionHe explicitly says "the thing simply IS, and I perceive it independently of me" What he does claim is reality and our representation of it are necessarily linked in consciousnessIf you claim reality and ideas are entirely separate, then how do you identify or know reality as distinct from your representation of it?
>>25497081>Avoid Hegel like the plague.I always did man...
>>25497113>our representation of it are necessarily linked in consciousnessso, Kant's Transcendental Idealism?
>>25497113idgiCan you explain in simpler terms?
>>25497615Closehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_idealism
>>25497646look behind the curtain & just end up seeing urself
>>25497685Quit speaking in riddles! I wish to understand!
>>25497113>Hegel never claims thisdid I say he did, or did I say the exact opposite? Are you doing this on purpose?
>>25497948You have misinterpreted the post entirely, and this is only possible if you only read the first two lines and ignored everything else. God knows I read the entirety of your post, please try to perform the same courtesy.
