I’ve been waiting for this one!
23:37 Why do Lacanians always feel the need to clarify what Lacan meant, rather than simply admit that his approach was at times limited and problematic? That’s probably the most off-putting aspect of engaging with this space, since the first move everyone makes is defending Lacan.
is it defending (this occured to me too) or is it, if considered diffendly (lyotard) a spatial re-alignment of Lacan through Deleuze; the Murphy fella on DNOTS is the bridging segment or Peter Rollins on liturgy and the associative fighting between a Catholic and Protestant reading of the issues ...
Well they don’t always feel the need to defend it. For example, she doesn’t. As for Hook, he probably does it because she asked him.
Or, why do some non-Lacanians always feel the need to problematize what Lacan meant, when there are sound or preferable arguments being made and that this about opening up a discourse on a subject?
Heidegger and ths centrality of Sorge in Dasin is about both Loss and Lacking; the Keirkegaardian either/or pointing to the limitations of the thought-forms ie dualism whereas the thought-forms as first understood as transmissions arising from the relationship between aelf, other, future ie Sorge
Man, this conversation has a bunch of labyrinthine implications. All I'm getting here is that only the unexamined life presents itself as livable.
I see why psychologists are so positivistic
I think that’s generally accurate actually. But by the time one realized that the more they know, the unhappier they are, they already know too much.
for an approach to evaluation methodology speak with Bojan Radej ~ the levels of generalities between the particular and universal are mediated by what? the absence(adorno) of separation between the epistemic and ontological ie within life is death and vice versa within death is life ...
Roussau(sp) and the social contract or Althusser and interpolation; both perhaps? The univocity of irruption within the individual collectively is located within the Catholicism of the 12th Century monk Dus Scotus as much later in Deleuze; Conversly, the moral code between Freud is by way of Bernays and the activation of the sex drive as having primacy over the death drive and is primarily seated on the protestant work ethic ... germanic hermetism is apart of the lineage with the rosicrusions which takes from the previous holism of the early buddhism/hinduism of the bardo or gandhabba-spirit which Freud appropriates ...
Kristeva and Goffman would be an interesting synthesis, no? Judith Butler maybe or Wendy Brown ...
there's convergence on the computational ciphers or ontic quales within the super language modelling for depression, anxiety and ptsd; these idea's are about shifting the burden of responsibility for services delivery away from the clinic and into populist idea's of deserving and undeserving as ordained by a preexisting metonymic order ie Kristeva ~ how one constructs the subject-object split is itself problematic ie in whose gaze are 'we' in ie the royal we ... the specificalities of defining the liminality and liminal spaces of subjective distress is about, what? the proxy of a proxy? Is what?
dangerous listening by judith bulter might be useful

@V1lk4y there's a growing number of authors challenging how 'we' look at and treat the idea of splitting and the structural inadequacies of the subject-object separation as a function of the epistemic blindness (Radej, Kristeva). Butler, like Wendy Brown and say Laura Doyle, points towards this as equally being about the creation of an assumption of neutralality of the gaze by an observer ... Silence of the Lambs remains the best illustration of ie the absence (as Adorno meant) of the antisystems perspective (see Bojan Radej) ...
the proxy of depression is itself an incomplete concept for ... domestic violence ?
