@materialcritic It is something he calls the hermeneutic circle

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@malcxlmflex Heidegger's favorite thing was to be like "ah but before you can even ask the question you are forgetting that you must know this or that (usually the meaning of being) to even ask it" which is why philosophical project did not go super far. It is interesting though.

@MrTaha Spinoza Ethics + TTP

@chris55102 Wow philly 💪

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@shehermphrditus @enniottefire Oh yea true. But too many guilty pleasure Hegelians want to reconcile the two. Not so easy imo

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@enniottefire They sure don’t find dialectics very useful though

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@shehermphrditus @enniottefire I mean he’s discussing Eisenstein so this doesn’t seem to be much more than his “thinking with” approach. I don’t think this makes Deleuze’s philosophy dialectical. And if you look at the larger treatment of the movement image the dialectics are just one part of the puzzle

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@materialcritic It’s true that people need to take his reading of Marx more seriously. Like A Thousand Plateaus chapters 12+13. I don’t think he’s a post Marxist all I think he’s straight up a Marxist.

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@materialcritic Who would trivialize him

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@unitas_spiritus @ruthlesskritik @baafd1274f7f493 What do you think about Braudel’s account of market dependency and feudalism if you’re familiar

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@shaabiranks I always had a feeling that you were a Deleuze guy. Especially bc of your bio

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@therealmugomar @stendhalist I thought the Hamas MB relationship was way more complicated

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@donaldp1917 This is what tronti called the autonomy of the political

@cybermaenad Chris Marker has several good communist films. Bernardo Bertolucci also is up there with Pasolini. I think Costas Gravas as well was a communist. Also Sayajit Ray in the 60s-70s was pretty close

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@therealmugomar What's the internal egyptian diaspora read on him. Like what's the dynamic, what's his archetype

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@TherynDArnold This is a bad test. Not a fan of the “tidbit” format

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@materialcritic Even carnap? And what do you consider Peirce?

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@materialcritic Come and See by Elem Klimov

[Léo @LoOrtega5]

@therealmugomar @boring__you It's a lot of cultural/literary theory so maybe not ur jam but he's a good and interesting Marxist in my opinion. Incarnates the pre war Frankfurt School for me which has some redeemable qualities
