Machinic Unconscious Happy Hour

John and Adam - Ego Book Part 2

Sep 14, 2020
John Zigterman, co-host of Beep Beep Lettuce, and Adam, co-host of Acid Horizon, join the podcast to discuss Max Stirner's The Unique and Its Property. They explore topics such as the misinterpretation of terms like 'ego' and 'Geist', the contrast between Stern's ontology and the empiricist idea of Tabula Rasa, and the concept of contradiction and dialectics in Hegelian philosophy. They also delve into the concept of placing spirit outside of oneself, Christian morality and slavery, the perpetual cycle of masters and revolutionaries, and the journey towards self-realization and uniqueness. Other topics include the concept of self-assumption and self-creation, the relationship between desire and oneness, and a comparative analysis of Spinoza, Hegel, and Stirner. They also touch upon the connection between capitalism and autism and wrap up the discussion by sharing information about their other projects.
