      As I understood it he just wanted to make the point that he doesn't believe capitalism can hold against the upcoming environmental/economic crises. He got a bit lost in his justifications.
      The point about being a Heideggerian gets finished at the end of the video: Heideggerians were the "dissidents" he says. He was a dissident, he didn't believe in communism much at all. In the same way, he doesn't believe in capitalism.
      He's pessimistic, and that's the reason he thinks we can't escape ideology in general, as he explains by the point that social justice is overly optimistic, and his prediction that Yugoslavia, after the USSR, would revert to nationalism.

      Exactly. The masses of the people have to deal with the crowds of immigrants, who are oftentimes fleeing problems that were caused or exacerbated by the same political-economic elites who are now wagging their fingers at us saying "no, no, no, children play nice. Only use NICE words 😊" while pulling out the rug from under us and trying to say it's for our own good or some nonsense. We are in quite a quagmire because globalization, neoconservative, and then neoliberal policies have made it harder and harder to deal with our own issues since we now have to take on the consequences of our previous corrupted leaders. Yeah, what a set of cards we've been dealt.

      Another one 💖 what I live about Heidegger thought is that it's not like a fixed opinion, it's a path, a struggle with a thought. The only way to be a real Heideggerian is to struggle with things in relation with the ontological matter. Being is the place where things can be addressed authentically. It's a clearing, but it's also a "clear space", tabula rasa, which bears the name of "nothing" and it is experienced through Angst. I'm in love with Heidegger exactly for this - because it is HARD

      Think about this, apart from the task of thinking what "Being" is (which is the main question of philosophy. If you're a philosopher, your only true question is: what is being? Why things are? Etc.)
      His criticism of western metaphysics is not the final word - because western metaphysics hasn't ended yet. Its run is still going. To understand where we are today we need Heidegger's hermeneutical method. It's not a matter of ideology - that's what the postmodern philosophers basically think (being is performative etc. - false). It's a matter of metaphysical in the original sense. It is about "on e on", Being as being.

      Is the existing liberal democratic system able to cope with dealing with the global problems being faced today, ex. forms of domination through internet ecology, global migrations, etc problems that generally are being faced all around the world. He talks about how he is not exactly pro communist because when he was in university he was more of a heideggerian, nor nostalgic for 20th century communism because he experienced it and did not have any illusion because solvenia's borders were generally open for him to explore the west(to buy books as he says). There's a note about how first world country people are not really responsible for the rest of the world and shouldn't always feel guilt for the rest of it, and a note on political correctness stems from european enlightenment. He talks about some conflicts between different schools of thoughts, ex. frankfurt schools, and heideggerians aswell as french experience.
      Most of it is tangents of his own experience but I believe the idea conveyed is that the liberal democratic system in place now is not powerful enough to fight problems that we are facing and that are coming, and that looking to the past with nostalgic lenses of systems bygone is not the solution.

    The West’s overreaction to Marxist ideology and the emergence of Socialist countries is the foundation of the problems we have today.
    Left to it’s own devices, perhaps the Soviet system would indeed have failed sooner. But because of the overt actions of the west, it created a negative pressure they inadvertently propped up these systems and misleadership.
    Think about this: democracy being represented as the antithesis of monarchy, there wasn’t any overt opposition to monarchy since the French Revolution. Monarchies, in turn became inert and irrelevant on their own and subsequently replaced.
    On the other end of the spectrum, fascism, thought defeated after 1945, was ignored and now has raised its head again threatening all democracies including the US.
    The USSR is dead but Purim’s oligarchic dictatorship, is pulling the west into a conflict it really didn’t want , despite having the institution (NATO) created specifically for it.

    4:35 Many liberals in eastern europe all banded together in fear of that- adam michnik in poland, 'second treason of the clerks'
    He imputed also in that article to the more nationalist wing of solidarity antisemitism, which never emerged and was definitely never tolerated. They didn't talk abt cosmpolitan intellectuals that much , and the regime opposed those anyway. The party anyway had conservative/nationalist/antisemitic old guard in the natolin ruling faction first, then a sort of thing under moczar, fake national unity and trying to gloss over sort of the painful hatred of the ruling ideological doctrine for what was p
    The fears of liberals were partly overblown, partly simply averted. It all depended on the stability of democracy as well as international opinion; not often the most conservative were often the post communists

      How the fuck would you conflate a Heideggerian with a fascist when Heidegger has a legacy on the Left, mostly among Jewish intellectuals (Levinas, Derrida) and other liberal Jewish thinkers (Arendt, Steiner, etc.)? Heidegger's legacy is a complicated case, while his own personal thought clearly puts him in the fascist category.

      @@imavileone7360 That is funny. Heidegger was certainly a fascist, but many Heideggerian's are definitely not. Heidegger developed his work together withothers that totally disavowed fascism (their work was very similar despite the differing political views on the nazis).
      Many on the left have taken great inspiration from his work.
      When the full extent of Heideggers fascism came out a few years ago the head of the curator of his work resigned. Many people were very disappointed.

    This nervous philosopher must tell something meaningful about Heidegger first, for example, a chapter of the book “ unterwegs zur Sprache”. He must prove that he has studied Heidegger. Then he may tell that. “ I am not a Heideggerian anymore”. I totally doubt that.

      Because Heidegger is the most important thinker of the last century. So. If a „Trinker“ does not talk about Heidegger, then you will not ask any question. But when he tells that he is no longer Heideggerian, then he should explain why.
      By the way, I saw a comment that says Zizek has written a book about Heidegger. So, I will get that book.
