HEGEL, NIETZSCHE AND THE BIRTH OF MURDER!
I have a question related to my relationship and, I guess, life in general. My girlfriend and I share a lot of values, but there are things that we do not agree on. My girlfriend is religious and soon to be a government worker. I am not religious, but I love her religiosity and her tendency not to inflict that on others. We agree about the ideas of peaceful parenting about which we have talked a lot.
The thing that I don't like is the fact that her dream job includes her to be government worker.
Not sure how to approach the situation.

You use a precise definition of philosophy that may exclude some popular historical figures generally considered philosophers. For example Hegelian dialectic is not a conventional form of logical argumentation yet Hegelianism is popularly considered philosophy. Friedrich Nietzsche uses a lot of mythological symbolism in his writing, which really isn't an argument. Do you accept their work as philosophy? Do you accept the concept of schools of philosophy? What is the boundary between philosophy and other forms of thinking and intellectual investigation? Do you consider forms of thinking or intellectual investigation other than philosophy, as valid or valuable?

The Ethics of KILLING! Twitter/X Space
Friday Morning Twitter Space 11 July 2025
In this episode, I examine the relationship between personal trauma, substance use, and moral dilemmas. We discuss how many individuals turn to self-medication to cope with emotional pain, highlighting the psychological factors at play. I challenge the notion that drug use leads to genuine insights, arguing it often masks deeper issues.
We also explore the importance of responsibility in parenting and moral education, emphasizing the need for empathy and accountability. Through personal anecdotes, I urge listeners to reflect on their life choices and strive for deeper connections. This conversation invites engagement with the complexities of drug use and morality, advocating for an understanding of human growth and redemption.

How to Love Anxiety! Twitter/X Space
Twitter Space 24 July 2025
In this episode, I critically examine the philosophical ideas of Alan Watts, questioning the relevance of his insights on anxiety, childhood, and personal responsibility. I challenge Watts’ assertion that anxiety is unproductive, arguing instead that it can serve as a vital catalyst for action and survival, much as it did for our ancestors. The discussion encourages listeners to reflect on the importance of embracing anxiety rather than suppressing it, particularly in the context of personal growth and financial stability. By exploring the societal implications of anxiety, especially among women, I invite the audience to consider how their values and choices impact their lives. Ultimately, this episode offers a nuanced perspective on the relationship between anxiety and proactive living, emphasizing that channeling our worries can lead to meaningful engagement and reduce regret.
