#dialectic — Public Fediverse posts

@YellowTurtle Suppose no thing, which is put together is nothing, is absolute, so implies being is not absolute. Why should an idea be synonymous with what being is; why are the values of the ideas’ concept not absolute? When absolute values are presupposed, as in merely affirmed according to beliefs e.g. the geocentric model of the cosmos is true, which is actually false, they do not transcend their actual values if science is objective. By that I mean its claims can be independently verified and are not dependent on the beliefs in them. Ideas, having not just a form but being the exposition of the concept, transcend being e.g. the cosmos is infinite in time and or space as opposed to the values of the reasons for its dimensions are. #Philosophy

The dialectic is not linear in that its principle is constituted by the comprehension of contradictions, which are real, not transcendental e.g. as there are exceptions to speculative claims on modality that are spurious, as in without proof e.g. it is necessary that there are no absolutes, as nothing is absolute. #Dialectic #Hegel #TheAbsoluteIdea #TheScienceOfLogic

I consider the divide between Continental and Analytical philosophy through my ontological lens after watching an IAI debate. I had already considered this as a use case, so the serendipity was convenient. What I used to call petulance, I now call ontological divide – and petulance. Thoughts?

One of my new superpowers in "debating" (I prefer a dialectic really) is just saying "I don't care." Or "Why is that important?"
"No matter what society you imagine, people will always try to take advantage of it." => I don't care.
"But I might miss something on my timeline." => Why is that important?
Give it a try!

A quotation from Edna St. Vincent Millay

With him for a sire and her for a dam,
What should I be but just what I am?

Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) American poet
Poem (1920-11), “The Singing-Woman from the Wood’s Edge,” Vanity Fair, Vol. 14, No. 3

@johncarlosbaez Your blog makes a reference to philosophy, but what has the combinatorics of ‘counting categories’ to do with those that constitute the foundation of their concept if those are reasons, relations, properties, dispositions and forms. I’m thinking of Plato’s principle and realms in relation to Aristotle’s modal oppositions….. #Philosophy #Knowledge #Dialectic #Forms #Categories

@impactology Why not a door with reason and purpose? No matter how great the sense of fear, shame and guilt are, they are just being. The dialectic transcends that, and even it is nothing if not constituted by the foundation of its concept. Partial intelligibility is comprehensive.

In einer idealen Sprechsituation sind alle Beteiligten gleichberechtigt und argumentieren rational. Ein respektvoller Dialog oder Multilog fördert die Konsensfindung und führt zu einem fairen Interessenausgleich – ein essenzielles Element politischer Kommunikation.

Standhaftigkeit ist, wenn es weh tut!
"Die Grundlage von Demokratie ist ein Selbstverständnis, und zwar: Ich bin hier nicht Besucher. Ich bin nicht Opfer meiner Gesellschaft, nicht Konsument, sondern ich bin Gestalter meiner Gesellschaft, und ich bin verantwortlich für mich und andere."

Are you the boss of babies... or are the babies, in fact, bossing you? #dialectic

When I walked into the kitchen this morning, spouse said, "I saved the most expensive Valentine's present for this morning."

And he handed me an egg.

We laughed hard, but it was the morbid laughter of dark times, and though I know that "all we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us," but I really wish none of this were happening.

Closer to Adorno’s Negative Dialectics than Hegel’s dialectical optimism. #philosophy #schopenhauer #hegel #GeorgWilhelmFriedrichHegel #dialectic #history #sociology #religion https://www.dustinjbyrd.org

I gave a lecture on Hegel's Master-Slave Dialectic to Intro To Philosophy students at Marist College using the "old-school" education at the Culinary Institute of America at the time as an example to illustrate the dynamic

Here's another short video excerpt from an in-class lecture leading undergraduate non-majors through Hegel's master-slave dialectic in an Intro to Philosophy class.

Here's a short excerpted from my lecture on Hegel's Master-Slave Dialectic in an Intro to Philosophy class. This one looks at how we get from recognition (Anerkennen) to a struggle to the death between two self-consciousnesses

Here's another YouTube short excerpted from my Intro to Philosophy lecture on Hegel's Self-Consciousness section & the Master-Slave dialectic, explaining a bit about what Hegel means by "certainty of self"

@6G @escarpment @rameshgupta @benroyce lifelong Democrat here, #Biden2024 , and I would've said that, generally, the left *includes* the views of the right. At least in a #dialectic sense.

But I no longer have that view.

If Trump has done one thing, he's upended what the GOP is and stands for. If anything at all.

At this point, I'd say that my party is decidedly illeberal and that the GOP is totally lost and can only naysay.

A discussion can be an argument/debate, in which one wins and another loses, or a dialectic, in which two or more cooperatively seek the truth of the matter.

Anatol Rappaport offered a way to transform argument into dialectic:
