Comment on What would happen if I just drove straight south to Mexico?
prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 days agoI never said I didn’t believe you, I just believe that evil exists only in the eyes that see evil everywhere.
This honestly has to be one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read. You cannot seriously believe this, right?

It's a sloppy rework of a Hegel quote--you have my most favorite lemmy comment prole:
I really love the beauty of a prole calling a hegel quote the dumbest thing ever in any context.
But if you wanted a serious answer, yes--Doesn't any modern worthwhile philosopher have to engage with Hegel's thought in some dimension?

I’m aware you didn’t come up with it, but I could not care less that Hegel said it. It’s fucking stupid.

I think it means lumpenprole would be a better name lol
You have impressed me yet again tho--if you ever seriously engage with Marx's inspirations, please return with how your views changed on this very core Hegel quote. Until then, I hope you find peace:D

Because I said that the idea that “evil only exists in the eyes of those who see evil everywhere” is stupid?
Maybe you should learn to think for yourself.
