- Good morning everyone, today I would like to talk about Freud’s short essay “Zeitgemäßes über Krieg und Tod”, published in “imago” in 1915, 6 months after the outbreak of World War I.

I want to live, so I watch CZcams
In the movie 'Ghost Dog' they quote the Hagakure.
"The Way of the Samurai is found in death. Meditation on inevitable death should be performed daily. Every day when one's body and mind are at peace, one should meditate upon being ripped apart by arrows, rifles, spears, and swords. Being carried away by surging waves. Being thrown into the midst of a great fire. Being struck by lightning, being shaken to death by a great earthquake. Falling from thousand-foot cliffs, dying of disease, or committing seppuku at the death of one's master. And every day, without fail, one should consider himself as dead. This is the substance of the Way of the Samurai."
Lol for a moment I thought your were talking about this movie (a boy summons his ghost dog in it with a magic whistle is all I remember) czcams.com/video/SuyT1QDeB9M/video.htmlsi=uID9Tr9nhlRnY_ae
"Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. If you want to live, prepare to die."
Did you read the essay in German, just wondering? This is the best summary I've heard! Thank you.
Brilliant as always Julian. Well done.
I hope you can at one point cover a video all about what capitalist reification is. their seems to be conflicting definitions of the theory even among Marxists, whether between Lukacs and the Frankfurt School. It would be great to better understand what it means from Zizek/Lacan point of view and how it applies to contemporary life with AI, digital society, etc.

I like your videos a lot but the HDR burns my eyes out
What?!!! Love is bound to the death drive so how is love unnatural?
Very interesting indeed, but still every time I hear anything about Freud I can't help but think: "Man, this guy was so full of shit."
