Renegade Philosophers : THE THIRD PILL [public]

Registration
Welcome! To join the event, please register below.
About Event

Welcome back!

Topic :

We will discuss the important topic of the falsity of "red pill" thinking, and not in the toxic neo-manospherism sense, but in general relation to the value of epiphanies granted under the presumption of finding some "big truth".

As always, please read the following before the event!

This topic is more or less about a bit from The Perverts Guide To Cinema by Slavoj Zizek (who we will see in person later this year!).

Very briefly you can hear Zizeks argument here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23b-WTpFqoA

You can find the complete Perverts Guide To Cinema here :
https://archive.org/details/the-perverts-guide-to-cinema

The discussion involves the first 5 minutes or so of the film.

Logistics :

You can also find this event on Meetup ;
https://www.meetup.com/renegadephilosophers/events/310486922/?utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=share-btn_savedevents_share_modal&utm_source=link&utm_version=v2
Please register on both platforms if you could be so kind.

Groups will get about 20 minutes per scramble to discuss, with a 5 minute intro a debrief.

Afterwards we will get Tacos! (There is a good taco place in Hayes not far from The Commons)

Cheers,
-Daniel
