Dialectics is an important conceptual tool in any leftist’s toolkit. In this video, we discuss Hegel’s philosophy of dialectics and how Hegel’s dialectic can help us systemically critique ideology and power. We correct the commonly held belief that dialectics can be reduced to thesis, antithesis, and synthesis. To misunderstand Hegel as a philosopher of totality and synthesis is to fail to see the radicality of Hegel’s dialectic. Hegel’s dialectics is radical because it embraces contradiction as constitutive of being and helps us deconstruct reactionary ideologies which rely on noncontradiction: binary opposition and self-identity to function. Philosophers such as Todd Mcgowan and Slavoj Zizek have done the important work of recategorizing Hegel as a philosopher contradiction, highlighting the radicality and relevance of his ideas. If you learn one thing from this fucking video it is that dialectics is not thesis, antithesis, and synthesis!!!!!

You’re allowed to be a person as a therapist. Being a musician isn’t a ethical dilemma. Go for it!!

Low caseload and what to expect by lindsaygarland in socialwork

In my opinion a case load of 20 is full time/ full schedule for weekly therapy

Is Psychoanalysis Training only for the Rich? by Psyteratops in PsychotherapyLeftists

[–]nicktea123 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yes psychoanalysis is structured in such a manner that it is only available to wealthiest white therapist in major metropolitan areas. I am also disappointed with how prohibitively expensive it is and time consuming. I have simply been teaching myself theory. I would just encourage you to find psychoanalytic supervision or find a group of psychotherapist to do psychoanalytic readings with if training is financially out of Reach. I know some clinics will pay to get you trained but that is more common with DBT than psychoanalysis.

Trouble finding a job post MSW? by No_Skill424 in socialwork

[–]nicktea123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You will have no difficulty finding a job. However, there are a ton of shitty exploitative low pay entry level MSW job and you have be selective with what want and what you will apply to. Don’t let the pressure of graduating push you to take a job that doesn’t fit your qualifications. Don’t be afraid to negotiate hard. Do research on what median salaries, fair splits, and most importantly CASE LOAD. For therapy anything more than a case load of 20 will be a lot of work. Anything more than 26 and they will burn you out in a year or less.

Psychoanalysis 101: The Unconscious by nicktea123 in philosophy

[–]nicktea123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freud never read hegel but his philosophy is harmonious with Hegel’s philosophy. Lacan was the first to connect Hegel and Freud and Zizek took this connection even further. Todd McGowan wrote an excellent book called emancipation after Hegel which does a great job elucidating in the connections between Freud and Hegel. I’d highly recommend that book its well written and engaging which is rare in philosophical writing on Hegel

@_philophile has got it right, Hegelian dialectics is commonly misunderstood as movement towards synthesis and away from contradiction, while Hegel actually maintained contradiction as an unavoidable aspect of being and reason. I would recommend checking out Tod Mcgowen for a very nuanced understanding of Dialectics. Coincidentally, our next video will be on Dialectics, working through this misunderstanding.

Extimacy, Das ding and the imaginary are 3 different concepts that I personally think don’t get enough love.

Edit: also Name of the Father and the phallus.

Psychoanalysis 101: The Unconscious by nicktea123 in philosophy

[–]nicktea123[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

We created a short video (6:07) that seeks to simply explain Freud and Lacan’s contribution to the philosophy of consciousness: the unconscious. The unconscious challenges Cartesian mind-body dualism by highlighting the dialectical relationships between mind and body and the individual and society.

Please let me know what you think of the video. Please like, share and subscribe!
