Did this frog pedo have theories and political ideas worth reading? He seems to get referenced a lot.
>>539933993*dies of AIDS*
>>539933993I went to wikipedia and was surprised it wasnt in the early life section
A lot of his ideas a woke leftist defeneracy, but from my superficial knowledge of him, I think he made some deep and inportant observation about the media, the justice system, the biomedical industry and their relation to power.He didnt seethe 24/7 about muh Russia like a lot of Western academics, either. If Foucault were alive today, I would probably disagree with a lot of his ideas, but I also suspect he'd be one of the leftists criticizing Israel and the Jews. So there's probably a lot to croticize in his work, but its probably also more interesting and useful than most normie conservative or liberal perspectives.
>>539933993Yes, Foucalt is worth reading. Primarily if you're interested in psychology and the history of it, although from a political point of view he also examines structures of power.
No Frenchman is worth reading. They are all pretentious degenerates
>>539933993His entire philosophical project was basically him trying to rationalize his own grotesque behavior by lashing out at established, legitimate moral and legal and authority.
>>539934304They routinely delete it. They also constantly remove his raping boys in graveyards too. Sick faggot was the epitome of what gays want the world to be.
>>539933993His book about prison and punishment is interesting
>>539933993His way of doing history of philosophy is how we got from some point in the past to the status quo regarding a certain topic without even remembering any parts of the evolution
>>539936399it's only cool for the story about the last guy tortured in france who was drawn and quartered but didn't get fully torn apart. hell of a way to go
>>539933993>worth readingHe's the progenitor of all the academic papers that say nothing while using every high-brow term you could possibly come across at uni.Gay, shit writer who studied prisons to map the perma-surveillance, tight schedules and constant control over people's time and actions onto normal society. He's the main reason why companies like Palantir exist and believe their creation of docile, subservient goy cattle who constantly fear the invisible leviathan's scorn is a goal worth pursuing.
>>539933993Not political exactly, but his research programme wrt intellectual history as outlined in AoK and applied in tOoT is highly original, interesting and enlightening
>>539937778But is interesting also how the punishment evolved.The funny thing is that,now there's no more punishment
>>539933993 (OP) #Frog Faggotass...kek dime/dozen
>>539934470>He didnt seethe 24/7 about muh Russia like a lot of Western academics, eitherThat wouldn't have made much sense in the 20th century
>>539933993He was a truly independent thinker and not a slave to ideology. His analysis of the history of criminal justice is legendary.
>>539938521>>539940088Look it's midwit zoomers who've never read anything by Foucault except a synopsis of his one popularized bookwhy is literally everyone below 40 intellectually lazy like literal niggers nowadays? Worse, why do they STILL presume to talk about stuff they're too lazy to learn about?
>>539933993I’ll be honest Ive never really got it when it comes to French philosophers in general, but especially the 20th century post modern/structuralist/marxist types. It always feels like I’ve walked in to the middle of a conversation but no one can tell me what the talk is about. Just always found it difficult to get my grounding
>>539938130Foucault's final paradigm would be power induced self-control. AI control would be a step back from there that is only achievable by more technology
>>539933993Nah. Watch Sugrue’s lecture on him and call it a day
>>539940991>just adopt x programming to learn what to think!Absolute state of zoomer shits
>>539933993I would rather remove my fingernails with a rusty screwdriver than read the pseudointellectual musings of some retarded French pervert. All post-medieval "philosophy" is either complete trash or a restatement of things the ancients already figured out.
>>539941265Imagine trying to hide your intellectual laziness and vapid mind behind professed love of classical philosophy, lmao
>>539938130>He's the main reason why companies like Palantir exist and believe their creation of docile, subservient goy cattle who constantly fear the invisible leviathan's scorn is a goal worth pursuingThats like blaming aviation pioneers for the B2 bomber
>>539941432Nope, you're both wrong, Foucault never advocated anything of the sort. He merely analyzed the development of state power over bodies as part of his larger research program into epistemes in intellectual historyFunny how literally everyone itt who remotely knows about Foucault only ever references his minor work on punishment and panopticonsYou're all terribly educated, lazy and entitled af
