Morning Comrades and welcome back to the rest of the week here in Substack Land. As per usual, these next two dispatches will be for the gracious patreons of this project and by now, everyone knows the deal. You can sign up for a free two week trial below to see if this is something you can and want to do.
On Monday, we briefly touched on the banal reality of the binary existence that the ruling class has offered us for the past few hundred years, one that entirely neglects the actual purpose of existence: the betterment for all whilst eradicating the need for want. This fraudulent and destructive reality, sold as freedom and enlightenment serves no one other than the owning and ruling class and is a hegemonic construct that needs to be burnt to the ground before we can even work towards the above. In case you have ever wondered what the tangible, material, point of philosophy is, here it is: this concept, this construct rather, isn’t one born of logical evolution, it isn’t “just how it is”, it was man-made and made for a purpose. If you ever wanted to dissect how cultural hegemony works this is for you, or rather for everyone as this one affects us all in the most destructive of ways. With that, we will briefly touch on Aristotle, moral philosophy and what to do with and possibly find some molotov cocktails to help work on this problem. Strap in.
