>The difficulties of being precise about knowledge are one reason why English is not considered well-suited for discussions about epistemology, and terms from other languages, notably Latin and German, are commonly used.

>people just ending up claiming agreement with his systems wholesale
because that's literally the point person who has never read Hegel: the Truth is the WHOLE.

>We can't find it because we don't know what it is, and we don't know what it is because we can't find it.
refuted by Hegel (pbuh) in section 85 and 86 of the Phenomenologie

damn i really wish that author had just put his ideas in a nice story about a dystopian state that is ruled by dragons and where every man has to go through 12 excruciating challenges before given the permission to start any romantic bond

Why all Phä and Hegel´s /lit/ theard are about the Introduction, Foreword, Sense-Certainty or Perception ? Have you ever at least finish the entire Consciousness section, you bunch of idiots ?

i'm aware of this, but Moldbug is a recent exegete of this and broke the mold by bringing it up in the 2000s, and in San Francisco, of all places (although of course in hindsight this makes sense). there are lots of other reactionary thinkers too: i noted de Maistre, and there's Jouvenel, Filmer...i'm sure you can name many more.

you know who also has his moments too? the boy. sections 500 and 501 have some interesting stuff to say about the noble and ignoble consciousnesses, and their relationships to state power and wealth. as with everything in Hegel, that which undergoes the most change is what has his interest, and does the heavy lifting along the way to the Absolute; but it's not like Hegel was completely clueless about a lot of this stuff. i'm not known for my love of Hegel but i've been carrying around a copy of this for a while now, if only b/c i know i can open it up at random at just about any section and find something interesting in there. p. 305 happened to be it yesterday.

Neoreaction is a pretty fascinating episode, although i think the Trump Effect has sent great ripples throughout the reactosphere. he basically ratcheted up the left and the right to degrees of intensity nobody expected to see (and arguably did more to show the moribund nature of academic Marxism in three years than ordinary mortals would have accomplished in a lifetime). now that Western politics as seen on Twitter and the MSM has regressed into a curiously disappointing version of Monday Night Raw perhaps we can expect something more interesting to follow in his wake.

oh, who am i kidding, it's all going to be a car wreck for decades to come. why else would i have all these images of the Desert Fathers on my computer now? because i can't fucking Tao my way out of the crippling dread i feel about capital, and even the most esoteric meditations possible on difference and technology don't make me feel any better. what makes me feel good is saying unironically that it's all in the hands of the divine and probably i should just be humble and hope for the best. God is dead; that (you think) you can handle. Marx is dead; that's a harder pill to swallow.

Building a Bridge to the Ninth Century. find a flaw

Read this book years ago. Lately, I find my mind returning to the chapters on Force and Understanding. Was this the final stage of his epistemology or is it sublated by something else? I can no longer recall...

Has anyone actually read this before?

This was supposed to be a warning, not a fucking guide.

Maybe start with something easy like pic related
