Deleuze on Nietzsche: Against the Dialectic

- Hegel ain't so hot for Deleuze and Nietzsche, but we should at least GET CLEAR ON DIALECTICS because there's precious little good content on it. Here are some metaphysics, and the Deleuzian project of seeking a metaphysics of creative difference-in-itself.

Legit best comment I've read this year, perfect!

since when were we calling age "iq"
"someone with greater tolerance for boredom will recognize, after a while, that walking as such is what bores him. Consequently, he will be impelled to find a kind of movement that is entirely different. Running, or racing, does not yield a new gait. It is just accelerated walking. Dancing or gliding, however, represent entirely new forms of motion." (Burnout Society)
Deleuze is not an accelerationist, but a dancer. He does not run where Hegel walked but creates a new movement of concepts out of boredom with state philosophy.
Boredom is when your relation with the other you identify with (i.e. attentively and actively participating in) is not at its highest potential (hence being driven to change it). Schopenhauer's boredom reflects how there is no activity that could ever relinquish our hunger for life (and since all identification with the other is negation for self-affirmation, we say there is nothing that can truly make us feel alive). Whereas Deleuze would see dancing/concept-creation as that which affirms the self (i.e. make us feel alive/eradicate boredom), Hegel would say that there is nothing but one dance: all towards self-actualization (hence his absolutism). Hegel starts off from the beginning with a science of logic. Nothing escapes the beginning of philosophy: not a question of being, but an affirmation of it (Heidegger). People just don't realize how foundational Hegel is, and as such keep on attacking him with historical creations as if not subsumed in his philosophy. Dances are like historical arts which are presentations of consciousness to Hegel.
Maybe his shoes are too tight.
beautifully put. this is why i like to read Deleuze as an artist (I enjoy deep house music while reading him). The Dionysian archetype as Nietzsche would say like Zarathustra the dancer.
That's a magnificent analogy.

Just came across this on Reddit. For whatever it’s worth, As someone who has been teaching and writing about Deleuze and Nietzsche for a while, this is actually a very good treatment (surprisingly, given the popular versions I usually encounter). Thanks for this!
Pills is pretty good at this! Check the rest of his stuff out too.

This is an excellent lesson on Deleuze. I have been a philosophy professor for 25 years and this is an excellent example of making very difficult ideas accessible to anyone with a basic familiarity with the history of Continental philosophy. Your use of humor brings a lightness to a very heavy topic (maybe a performative explication of difference, lol). Keep up the great work.
This is the medium where philosophy will reach people now given the dire condition of academic philosophy.
Hello, what do you mean by "dire condition of academic philosophy"?
Well, time to rewatch the videos on Deleuze for the fifth time
Awesome video. Love the graphics and presentation style. Glad to see another person pay attention to Nietzsche's metaphysics of the will. It gets overlooked.
Instantly liked after seeing "Greg"
Pills, don't let anyone (including yourself) convince you that you aren't funny. Or great at explaining difficult philosophical concepts to laymen. Easily my favourite youtube channel these days. Oh, and I haven't been a 20 year old for quite some time now, if that helps.
I love how these are great videos for newbies- but that on top of that, they are even more enjoyable for those of us who’ve studied these thinkers and can catch the humor in them. 👌
There will never be too many deleuze videos....Extremely helpful stuff!
Have you guys read "On The Superiority of Anglo-American Literature" by Deleuze? Its an essay that perfectly encapsulates his philsophy and also serves as a vicious yet cheeky criticism of Bataille (and therefore Baudrillard).
Thanks for the heads up. Could you elaborate on "...of Bataille (and therefore Baudrillard)"?
@@cityferkel2579 "The great secret is when you no longer have anything to hide, and thus when no one can grasp you. A secret everywhere, no more to be said. Since the signifier has been invented things have not fallen into place. Signifiance and overinterpretation are the two diseases of the earth, the pair of the despot and the priest. The signifier that little secret that never stopped hanging around mommy and daddy. We blackmail ourselves, we make ourselves out to be mysterious, we move in the air saying "see how weighed down i am by a secret". The thorn in the flesh. The little secret is generally reducible to a sad narcissistic pious mastrubation: the phantasm! Bataille is a very french author. He made that very secret the essence of literature, with a mother within, with a priest beneath and an eye above. New races of priests are always being invented for the dirty little secret, which has no other object than to get itself recognized, to put us back into a very black hole, to bounce us off a very white wall. Your secret can be always seen in your face and in your eyes. Lose your face. Become capable of loving without remembering, without phantasm and without interpretation, without taking stock. Let there just be fluxes, which sometimes dry up, freeze and overflow, which sometimes combine and diverge. A man and a woman are fluxes. All the becomings which there are in making of love, all the sexes, then sexes in a single one or two, which have nothing to do with castration."
Baudrillard saw the Bataillean "secret" as a way to escape the logic of western utilitarian modernity. His famous question "After the orgy (of signs caused by globalization) , when they ask you who you are, what are you going to say? The options seem to be less and less." is here answered by Deleuze: "Im naked, isnt it obvious?" The great secret is when you have nothing to hide.
great job replies but i'll still need half a dozen blog posts to get that one quote
Oh, I see. You can most easily (sometimes) 'hide in plain sight'. The inverse of Chesterton's message in the story of the corrupt/sadistic general: 'Where do you bury a suspicious body? In a pile of un-suspicious bodies'. Or hide a tree in a forest. Etc (?)
I just wrote an essay on nomadic ethics and the ghosts of our citations. I wanted to to thank you for bringing me into Derrida and hauntology. All ur stuff is so interesting
3:16 "It says nothing against the ripeness of a spirit that it has a few worms." Nietzsche: Human, All Too Human
4:00 ""I want to learn more and more to see as beautiful what is necessary in things; then I shall be one of those who makes things beautiful. Amor fati: let that be my love henceforth! I do not want to wage war against what is ugly. I do not want to accuse; I do not even want to accuse those who accuse. Looking away shall be my only negation. And all in all and on the whole: some day I wish to be only a Yes-sayer." section 276 the Gay Science
Every time I see this guy on screen I'm sure he's about to start singing a metalcore song. Is there a second channel for that?
hahaha lol same
Great video. Another reason for why Deleuze is criticial of the dialectic is that Hegel's promise is that the dialectic can begin from the abstract and concretize itself, but Deleuze's point is that it never does. Hegelians are very critical of Deleuze's Nietzsche and Philosophy because Deleuze critiques Hegel's understanding of forces when it doesn't sound like he is talking about Hegel's understanding of forces at all. And that's the point. Forces are stronger than other forces. They are quicker than other forces. And so on and so on. Without this affirmative seemingly anonymous personification of a force it isn't concrete because we aren't considering it's becoming. But this personification isn't that we take ahold of these forces. Rather they take ahold of us. That is Nietzsche's point about forces. This is a perspectivism not a relativism. Imagine we have various boxers. We can abstractly take them out of the ring and match and put them up against a wall. We can measure their heights, weights, lengths, etc, but when we do so we are abstracting them out of their concrete contextual becomings and relations. In the ongoing match itself one boxer will be stronger or quicker. And the other boxer if they're unable to be stronger or quicker even moreso must become reactive through cleverness to win. The problem is the long philosophical tradition that even Bergson falls prey to is treating quantity abstractly. To have a concrete understanding of forces we must have a concrete understanding of quantity which is a more or less without how much. Here quantitative differences precede qualitative identities. See more below in the replies
I had forgotton to mention that in addition to a concretization of quanitity by understanding it as more or less without how much Deleuze will say the re-thinking of force-relations something more than assessing them in their quantitative differences and interpreting them in terms of their individual qualities it also requires a determination of their sense and this sense is what will-to-power expresses and expression is a perspective
This needs more 'lack'.
aka paragraphs.
Hegel needs more Marx.
For anyone interested, search Nathan Widder Deleuze or something like that on YT. Pretty good series of lectures.
all of which interesting when you read Hegel's short essay "who thinks abstractly?"
By far the best exposition of Deleuze I have seen - and I have seen many. Thank you sir.
Ameego, wow! May your awesomeness prevail. I have been Deleuze adjacent for decades. Your delivery of his affirmations is such a joy to watch. Keep going!
Your videos have more substance, thought and nuance than most videos on these subjects. Thanks for the great content.
Dude, that was brutal on Greg. Think you should apologize before he starts gazing into the abyss a bit too long 😂. Awesome video, love this channel!
The production value of this is so high. Well done sir.
I just binge-watch all your videos (
Sick intro pills, your animations skills are getting to be absolutely insane
The editing is so good on all of these videos
Dude , this video is fire , i am commenting é minutes in so it is form rather than content , the intro draws you in , i could watch an hour of that ! the script is brilliant , the visual effects are amazing . IT IS CLEAR THAT INSANE AMOUNT OF EFFORT WENT INTO THIS PIECE OF ART IN VIDEO FORM .
Thank you for sucha ravishing feast for both eye and mind ! PHENOMENAL
Great video. I also enjoyed your Nietzsche discussion on your podcast. I appreciate the way you always try to make things clear in both your videos and your podcasts. You have the heart of an analytic philosopher 😄
Really well put together and thanks for your efforts!
This might be my favorite video of yours so far, if not my favorite CZcams philosophy video.
you're my favourite CZcamsr. thanks a lot for the videos you make, and for making deleuze understandable for me.
I’m really enjoying your takes! Thank you.
That dialectic graph with the spinning wheel on the plane reminds me so much of wheel of time and how a sin curve is the projection of the spinning of a wheel over time from a single point. 10/10
I've literally rewatched this video like 10 times since it was uploaded so much insight and great video
"Nietzsche's overman is a man who exceeds this definition, trailblazing unassailable paths whilst refuters argue if it can or shoul d be done,"
So, like a mass shooter, yeah?
The resentful small people just complain, but he went and acted, making it real, brave trailblazer with a semi-auto, while small minded refuters argued if it should be done. Action. Will. Affirmation. A swamp of horrors.
@@TexasFriedCriminal well, one problem with abandoning objective moral truth is that you couldn't so easily condemn such an act.
Also, Greg (guy at start of vid) may think he is an ubermensch, but he isnt. And the case is most likely the same with mass shooters.
@@TexasFriedCriminal The mass shooter destroys others, he doesn't create. It's an act of ressentiment.
Super logical dialectic is probably the best way to reconcile Deleuze and Hegel. Differences do exist not as accident but as a feature of reality, but within each characteristic of difference, there lays in it deficiencies. The deficiencies are what we perceive as contradictions, but through a “dialectic” we affirm the deficiencies, which then fixes itself and then sublates until we come to a closer idea of an unity and perhaps not an understanding, but an affirmation of it
I'm first. Now give my recognition. Recognize me.
@@Barklord I now feel valid. But it's surprisingly not as rewarding as you'd expect. Like I just peaked Mt Everest only to realize the journey was over and I'm no longer reaching for greater heights. The erasure of hope.

I aknowledge you

Damn fucking right, save the living. The dead are already gone.
That's great. I hope you'll continue
Marx wasn't trying to perfectly encapsule hegelian dialectics and use it to prove that class contradiction creates inevitable change in society. He was explaining objective historical material change through the lens of Dialectics, tying most relevant ways in which society changed to class struggle, especially within capitalism, to show that the contradiction between class interests are the impetus for social change, and he was doing it in order to convince working class people to seize production and in turn seize power. If working people view the capitalist class as public enemy number one, they can enact societal change through revolution, and society as a whole transforms dialectically.
Common people want nothing in common with their class enemies, those who colonize them and those who oppress them. If they are US, and not THEM, then they deserve empathy. Marxism tells them that all humans could come together as one society, and that class contradiction is a one-into-two division of society upon the lines of class material interests. In reality, the logical conclusion that comes from analyzing historical transformation through the lens of dialectics is that society is one, and that elements of change and contradictions internal to it cause its form to shift.
It erks me when philosophers look at political propaganda from marx and use it to show the weaknesses of his philosophy, and when they look at the failures of revolutionary groups in the past to prove that socialism as a political movement is bunk. They are no Dialecticians. Any true Dialectician would recognize how difficult of a task Marx set out to accomplish: the most radical process of changing class stratified society by predicting what factor alone plays the largest role in creating inequality, and telling working class people to understand their enemy.
Love it. Thanks for the direct quotations.
Yoo I’m so happy you did this, thanks
Your videos are fascinating. Thanks for explaining this
Just happened upon your vids they are such high quality I'm so surprised you don't have more viewers
Pleasant to watch. Nicely put. Thank you.
great video, you're getting better and better
I watch your videos multiple times with ads i don't skip any, i need to watch them multiple times to understand them well as long as i can and help you with ad-watch time and views
i like watching your stuff when i’m going to sleep. i don’t know what you’re talking about. it’s very relaxing
Read that in Binky's voice.
These videos are always so informative and well-made. I'm surprised you don't get more views, subscribers and likes
I really liked your visual representation of accidental, relative and pure difference. was quite helpful in getting what is probably a minute sliver of understanding
Literary theory student from India. Though I know better than to take your videos as replacements of actual reading, you have made many concepts particularly lucrative for me. Will be sharing these videos on the batch group.
Not to correct you for correction's sake, but because I think you might really want to know: I think you mean "clear" instead of "lucrative;" "lucrative" means "profitable" in a strictly monetary sense.
I agree, though, about these videos. I've been taking classes in postmodernism, and... I struggle, because I can watch a video like this, and I get it, I'm totally on board! On the other hand, trying to read it is... With someone like Deleuze, I'm either wondering exactly what they're trying to say or wishing they'd move on to the next point!
I'd really love to see a video from you on Stirner and Voluntary Servitude! This was really good and hearing more about those "avatars of the dialectic" that Deleuze spoke so much about would be cool as.
Just started reading Nietzdche and Philosophy so the timing of this video is perfect. Thanks!
great video. only just got round to it and was pleasantly surprised that it was about difference and repetition as ive been wondering on this topic for a while
That was so much fun to watch, well done
soon as I get a job I am supporting. Thank you for this
I'm curious how Deleuze could fathom a world without negation when negation is so readily apparent and available in all things. Hegel's whole argument is that even in a pure affirmation, a will to power so to speak, there exists an internal contradiction that will emerge when that force expresses itself through time. In Nature and in thought, in the heart of mankind, discord, strife, doubt, hatred, envy, etc, are clearly there; they animate us, they are arguably the very forces which compel artistic creation and culture in the first place. I'm not sure I follow Deleuze's insistence on removing the Negative from our ontology when it is so ubiquitous in our experience.
Excellent work as always!
Thank you so much for these videos.
Nice detailing and making relevant, and funny! Not an easy task at all. Very well done!
You know, it may be because I'm slow as fuck, but I feel like your content is really dense and I fully enjoy that. Requires a few rewatches but I get something more out of it every time. Glad you are pushing this out.
I would love to see a video/podcast on Deleuze’s interpretation of Spinoza. I’ve seen people rank his holy trinity of philosophers in every conceivable combination, but it’s hard to really put one as a definitive #1 since he uses the other two to evaluate/select/interpret the other one. His Nietzsche is Nietzsche seen through the perspective of a Bergsonian anti-dialectal process philosophy. But I have a harder time understanding where exactly Spinoza fits in as the key philosopher among the three... probably down to my own ignorance but would love to learn more
Holy shit dude! Thank you for making these videos!
The production is getting too good! 🔥
Nice creative affirmation in video format
Has to be the best Deleuze video I've seen. Really clarifies affirmation and what I have come to think of as material vitality. if like me you struggle with the idea that pleasure is defined by pain pure difference helps. Beauty needs no framework of contrasting comparison. "idle chatter justifies the status quo that permits idle chatter in the first place" x
Great stuff man, keep it up
thanks so much for this. i know very little of philosophy let alone metaphysics but this was so well done.
I just subscribed , I really enjoyed this.
Fantastic as always!
Thank you for this video!
At ~15:20, when he’s talking about the “Yes” of Deleuzean metaphysics compared to the “No” of dialectics, I immediately thought of Molly Bloom’s soliloquy from Joyce’s “Ulysses”, which both and starts and ends with the word “yes”, and crescendos in affirmation.
Not only that, but apparently in a 1921 letter, Joyce actually indirectly referenced Nietzsche when talking about Molly (a.k.a. “Penelope”) and his decision to end the book the way he did:
“In a 1921 letter, Joyce said, “The last word (human, all too human) is left to Penelope." He noted that the last word of the episode, as well as the first word, is "yes, a word that Joyce described as "the female word" and that he said indicated "acquiescence, self-abandon, relaxation, the end of all resistance”
As a novelist who embeds philosophical concepts into my conflicts, this is exactly what I needed.
how I'd love to read something like that! all the best to you
this video is awesome. thank you!
I wonder how much Deluze read Fichte, because there is huge congruence behind the ideas of Freedom and Consciousness being a determined act of Willing which creates Difference.
This was great, thanks.
There's something about this one, which I keep coming back to again and again. The re-watchability of your content is tremendous truly. - It keeps clearer and better after every viewing.
I had a couple video suggestions for the channel. My favourite quality about your content is that you act like Hermes, as an intermediary/interpreter between any two of the greatest minds in the history of philosophy. There is something deeply hermeneutic and phenomenological about your philosophical thought, and the gift to render such ideas comprehensible and sticky examples.
Was really cool to see you do the patreon video on Baudrillard vs Deluze, which I think you already planned on doing, but I too, made the suggestion probably a week before that. - In any case, I'm really happy you take video suggestions seriously and I my first suggestion would to do video on Heidegger 's Reading of Nietzsche, why? In the start of the video you mention how bad the videos on Nietzsche on this platform are with Gregs and would be of great service to redeem Nietzsche for us. In that process, you can even create a dialogue between Hegel and Heidegger. The second suggestion would be a Merleau Ponty's phenomenology vs Heidegger's phenomenology. Third would be Deleuze's reading of Whitehead and Spinoza. Fourth would be Husserl vs Heidegger. Fifth would be Lacan vs Heidegger. Sixth would be Nietzsche vs Hegel. Seventh would be a video on Wittgenstein. (So many versus videos, might as well do the OG on Schelling vs Hegel). If you're still reading this, Lacan vs Heidegger; Deleuze or Baudrillard against any of their contemporaries who you have not touched upon. If you are looking for more suggestions and don't wanna kill me yet, would be great to see you make more videos on Phenomenology, content on Hermeneutics and PLEASE some negative theo-ontology. Thanks!
If I close my eyes you sound kind of like Saul Goodman.
Great video, by the by. Terrific reminder as to why I adore Deleuze so much.
Very solid summary
I could watch you & Ms. Lola all day 💖 CZcams is very cool.
Brilliant as always :)
super great stuff!
This video got me to read "Nietzsche and Philosophy". 👍💙
Respect for discarding the "Thesis/Antithesis/Synthis" right from the beginning! Just for that you're channel gains my respect 🙂
HAHAHA! Greg. So, one day, during my college Philosophy program studies, I was reading Nietzsche for the first time and was talking about how great this was, and, I kid you not, this guy looked at me, and said, "Oh, yea. I read that in high school." Haha, totally dismissing my excitement. I looked around the room, and wondered why he thought that made him better than me when we were in the same place studying the same thing at virtually the same time. Haha! That guy, what a tool.
Don’t forget that Greg, as a twenty year old, also knows infinitely more than all those who have lived, just lived a full life already. Greg knows then intimately the very essence of their lack, how could he not - he is twenty. Yet, the only thing Greg has, really, is being twenty - if only Greg could see it. Greg, ...?
And remember Greg’s favouritest is Peterson
you mean jreg
@@tomstein7131 you mean the Canadian extreme centralist vlogger who parodies to protect and preserve what he thinks are moderate political views?
Honestly, people of every religion, ideology, political and philosophical position etc at 20, think they know what's best and everyone else is just ignorant. It's a shame if they think the same at 30.
We get it
the more I learn about this Deleuze fella, the more I like him
i missed having a few more of your diagrams, but nice work on deleuze bruh ... science, art, philos ... and dance,,, ROCK ON !
so greatful for ur videos
You just made the book of Deleuze about Nietzsche clear.
high quality content💯💯
fantastic video
Schopenhauer may have thought it was the same will but I think the leads more to Schopenhauer linking with higher dimensions and matrix theory. And the same will manifests differently depending on time and location of it's occurrence.
Just right before bed 👏👏
Buddhism is not “some self-negation of your will,” it is the recognition that life is unsatisfactory when we identify with that which is impermanent, for we grasp and cling. When you try to deny your will, you realize that only a will can deny itself, which is a paradox. And this core paradox can help to free your mind from the confusions of representational thinking, which is structured around identities.
I think being completely will-less is the same as dying while still alive. I don't like this. It seems like half of the picture. I wanna "play" life without whining about it being ultimatively "unsatisfactory". Satisfaction is stasis, death. I don't need to be satisfied!
@@hellucination9905 We all die while we’re still alive, many times over, whether it be through La petite mort of sex, or Ego death brought about by various mystical practices, including the use of psychedelics.
Life and death are linked in a complex way, this is a meditative insight which comes from reflecting on the unreality of identities. Who would want to live forever? This would be a fate worse than death.
There is no one alive who hasn’t experienced suffering, or in its more neutral form, the mere unsatisfactoriness of life, which comes from the realization of mortality. No one has or ever will be completely satisfied by life. This is the insight of realizing that even desiring to no longer desire is a paradox. So I say we should desire, but desire in a disinterested way. Though of course as Blake says, “the road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom;” so one has to go towards various extremes before understanding exactly what balance is, which is subjective to every category.
Desire in a disinterested way; that is, free from the chains of fetishism; extreme attachment, which is always linked to commodity fetishism in a capitalist realist society.
I agree with the notion of Randolph Bourne, that we should have an “impossiblist élan”! Indeed, we should desire the impossible; never being satisfied with the status quo, such that with the power of our imaginations we can bring revolutionary change into being.
Nothing is ever fully stationary, that includes death! So I content myself with the disinterested desiring which comes from understanding the impermanence of identity. But desiring never to be satisfied? I can’t see how that will help unless we can harness its power towards a collective desire for a more free and equal society.
our desires are never fully satisfied. This is how it is and what keeps you moving about in the world looking for food, sex, places to shit, a tit to suck on or any combination of these.
There are multiple schools of Buddhism and some like Therevada and Mahayana have vastly different views on Cosmology. As someone who has researched pretty heavily into Mahayana Buddhism, it's not interested in negation. Its metaphysics are based on a positive conception of loneliness based around the view that all processes are interdependent and in their interdependence they become different. Due to this everything is empty and is a part of Buddha-nature. Achieving liberation is based on coming to terms with this and realizing that everything is one because everything is different. That sounds very stupid but if you read books on the Buddhist cosmology of Indra's net it makes more sense.
and that's uncannily similar to Deleuzean (non-essentialist) 'difference'
I think a lot of people are curious about Buddhism and religions in relation to these ideas, because you can intrepret it as not negating the "Self," but the identity, which then wouId be in line with finding their "True will/self" or some kind of detachment with which they can view themselves (their self, desires, ignorance, reality).
This is why I think your videos are great. I think for people trying to figure out their identities, or what they want, and don't know where to start, the authors and topics you cover can help one navigate those concepts.
So thanks for doing the work, panning for the gold, for everyone :)
They definitely relate to Zen and daoist ideas.
Oh boy, this is gonna be my jam. I'm just started to reread What Is Philosophy? for the 5 times, and make a list of DnG's concept into a mind map. Thank you so much, Pills.
*Basically*
In Deleuzean metaphysics, the dialectic of the Idea is not relative to one's self at a distance and duration from and in space and time, but from a transcendental empiricism of 'desiring-production' or the economy transcendentalized vis-a-vis the transposition of the dialectic into the mode of a machine-production [desiring-machines] of thought and desire as the manifold of thought [ie. 'desiring-production'].
Really liked the video! I did wonder about something, why is the classic difference accidental and the dialectical difference relative? Seems to me you could swap these and it would also be true.
I don't think so, it's that an accidental difference doesn't matter. A relative difference does matter, but only relative to a positive term. Difference in itself is immanent to itself, instead of to a dominant term.
I love your videos man well done ! This one though did confuse me a wee bit , I’m not too sure I understand what is wrong with the “thesis antithesis and synthesis” model in Hegal’s terms at least. I can see that Deluze just thinks it’s a false simplification but I still understand Hegel in terms of this moving pendulum metaphor.
Good stuff!!!
Thoroughly here for the SnapBack metaphysics
wait I understand deleuze now you're the best dude
