EU's Hypocrisy of Democracy
Anoush Apetyan, a 36-year-old female Armenian solider and mother of three, was tortured, mutilated, raped, and killed by Azerbaijani armed forces in September 2022. The atrocity was filmed and shared online as a 'celebratory moment'. Anoush's case is not an isolated incident, as many Armenian soldiers and civilians have fell victim to such crimes against humanity by the Azerbaijani armed forces. Other such genocidal forms include the forceful displacement and ethnic cleansing of about 100,000 Armenians from Artsakh/Nagorno-Karabakh in September 2023.
With the European Parliamentary Elections around the corner, what is the EU's role in all of this? Are they complicit in such an ethnic clea...

    Metamodernism is an inorganic forced meme that exists purely for the sake of being described as "the new thing" by the press, and it will only last a few more years. Merging irony and sincerity is neither creative nor productive.

    Oscillating between irony and sincerity is doable. Sythesizing all ideologies and value systems together into some post-ideological value system that is supposed to resolve all paradoxes in a neo-romantic spirit is the richest bullshit i ever heard. I began looking into metamodernism because i want to transcend postmodernism's endless desert of deconstruction and relativising, but this is just a more absurd desert. The desert might be all there is 🤷 It would be nice to transcend to something more grandly optimistic than absurdism and active or positive nihilism, but that might be it. Sorry folks, better go rebel harder! 😶‍🌫️🫠🦆🤷 Edit: Barbie is not profound or deep. It's yearning for change is not sincere. The entire purpose of Barbie is for the material benefit of Mattel, as is the purpose of all the other movies they have planned. This is the company that has little girls working in horrible conditions in Chinese factories making chump change and living in severely under-maintained quarters that often have flea infestations and they are served slop befitting of pigs. All of this is the material reality so free privileged American girls can play with the Barbie doll, the product of the girl slaves' labor and forfeiture of childhood. Mattel sells a commodified antithesis of its own ethics and it doesn't care. If it gives the brand a better image and more recognition and ultimately leads to better bottom lines for the cronies, it was a good business move. It's a completely nihilist enterprise and not in a positive way.

    what a load of bullishiitee sir. I used to study in university of cine Moscow , where Eizenstein was a professor from 1920 to 1940s . Later the students of Eizenstein were were teachers in my uni. Even i knew a professor with a soothing sounding surname Trankvilitskiy who knew him personally on 1940s he was about 90 on 2006. Why am i writing this preamble //? Ahh so , for that decade i heard word Eizenshte several thousand times, i heard gossips from his ex and ex-ex peers about him and his life. What you are saying i only saw in anti communist sources tho it has no basis even it doest make sense , He was an ideological communist , his personal notes , his work is prove of that. I understand that it might be that western history might deform stories in its ideological favor, When Sergei was working on movie Ivan he submitted the precise scenery , drawings composition, basically everything was known in advance. Politicians could easily cut funds in advance but they didn't. You was showing scenes from Ivan the terrible 1. Stalin personal gave him a pries for that movie. Only In Ivan the Terible 2 when Ivan was killing his close peps ,movie was silenced. Idk i dont like when they speak about Eisenstein only from political prespective coz if not him and not his work his theory of motaje, mpvies as we know now perhaps did not exist. No matter was his political vies lets give his a praise for that theoretical basis of film he left. Like Mendeleev periodic table was much a basics for modern chemistry Eisenstein left theory that shaped films. cheers

    no. metamodernism is NOT an oscillation between modernism and postmodernism. this is a pseudo-metamodernism. the real metamodernism synthesises them. and this "sincere irony / ironical sincerity" is just a pure bullshit.

    • @nietzschebietzsche
      @nietzschebietzsche 7 месяцев назад

      Can you explain how the synthesis of the two is not bullshit? How can they be coherently synthesized? Can you give an analysis. E.g., what is a metamodern analysis of the cobalt supply chain? Can we reconcile horrible, high-risk slave working conditions in the Chinese-owned mines in the DRC with our desire for the latest smartphone, or cobalt-heavy electric vehicles, or our broader technological dependence on li-ion batteries? Like how can metamodernism be used to understand this situation, and what prescriptions can it offer us on what to do about it? I've not yet heard anyone give a coherent specific metamodern analysis of anything. They just talk in big abstract dreamy ways. If I can't apply a meta modernist approach to actually develop real-world policy initiatives, it's just a muddled coping mechanism or something more sinister as far as I'm concerned.

      There's not much to understand. It's an incoherent mess that is defined differently by almost everyone who discusses it. No one ever gives any concrete metamodern prescriptions to specific problems because they don't have a coherent idea of what they're talking about. I think people just desperately want to transcend being existentially depressed impotent postmodernists, which is understandable, but in a fully postmodern spirit, I'm deconstructing meta modernism, and so far, there's really not much there. Just a lot of cognitive dissonance and a yearning for a more positive world.

      @@TheAudiovisualEssayist​⁠​⁠To elaborate with examples within the first 30 seconds you use words like "portmanteau" or "counterprogramming" or "diametrically opposed" and not everyone knows what those terms mean. Imagine you're trying to deliver this information to a high school senior in the regular english class, then you have a grasp of the average internet user. A little later you use "socio-cultural mode of thought" and "metamodern structures of feeling" of which you explain the latter but in a long-winded fashion. Perhaps your target audience is more liberal arts college-educated people in which case go off but these terms tend to impede understanding for laypeople. Good video overall, really interesting as someone who loves analyzing literature and film. If I could give some constructive feedback for potentially expanding your audience, it would be to in part, frame the presentation towards your audience's understanding vs. communicating your analysis as specifically as possible. Often we use words like these to be as accurate as possible in our descriptions but for most people this specificity in rhetoric is too abstract and need something to dumb it down conceptually. Something that could help is offering an example of the sociocultural phenomenon you're speaking about before using or explaining the term, for example lets take counterprogramming, "Have you ever noticed the variety of films that release and are playing in theaters at the same time? For example, a G-rated disney movie might release in the early summer along with a PG-13 action blockbuster and an R rated horror flick. One of the reasons for this variety is counterprogramming, a strategy production and distribution companies take to reach as many diverse audiences as possible with their products." which would help your audience understand what you're getting at when you go ahead and explain the meta modern structures of feeling. For most laypeople it takes a 3 variable approach to explain complex ideas or words. You want 1. A concrete example of it in the real world i.e. the example of the movies that release at once for counterprogramming. 2. the name of the phenomenon you just described i.e. introduce "counterprogramming" and 3. explain the definition of the term in the context of the concrete example that was given i.e. "this strategy of simultaneously releasing films of vastly different genres and purposes is a perfect example of counterprogramming as companies use this diversity in product to diversify their audiences". I noticed in your video sometimes you would just throw a word like that in without explanation, or sometimes you would just offer the explanation and the word but no examples, or sometimes you would bring up an example without contextualizing it with the explanation of the phenomenon. Just a thought lol, almost like a rhetorical shift provides counterprogramming within your own video to attract wider audiences. Best of luck to your channel man, good video!

I want to know how a metamodern approach works, and I want to know what prescriptions it can offer to real, material problems, not just how it can be a coping mechanism for psychological problems such as existential malaise. My operating conjecture is that no one who claims to be a metamodernist or to understand metamodernism can do this because it's an incoherent word salad. Its ontology is not reconcilable in a way that's free of paradox. How can you synthesize all past value systems in a neo-romantic spirit and it's all post ideological. The sad thing is that the proponents of this want so badly to be credited with something new but even ideology that doesn't recognize itself is not new.

      ​@@TheAudiovisualEssayisteisenstein was a fanatic supporter of the ussr.He was a communist and this sad attempt to make him antisoviet is idiotic.Its obvious from the way you talk about about the soviet power, "totalitarian regime" thats not how he viewed stalin nor the ussr in general all of his movies are pro soviet and revolutionary.Ivan the terrible is both a criqute of the old tsarist russian empire(its a movie about its founder you idiot) while at the same time appreciating and accept that the experience of the russian empire has shaped russian culture!Bravo among all of his works where he calls for revolution where he fanatically supports the power of the soviets you took his movie a direct criticism of the old monarchy and appreciation of russian culture to be...an anticommunist "antistalinist" work because YOU(a smartass who quotes the ultimate opportunist zizek) view the soviet union as totalitarian.Eisenstein fought for the revolution was among the first to fight in the red army and supported fanatically the soviet union throught his life.Look how easy it is to be you(a smartass) alexander nevsky(1938) 6 years before this movie.Alexander nevsksy leads the russian people against a much stronger childmurdering german army.Stalin is obviously Nevsky leading the people to victory against the nazis you can see the russian people uniting women and men toghter against the invader and gaining victory with bravery and courage!Simplistic as hell but you know what?Unlike your "analysis" of ivan the terrible my simplistic reading of the movie is probably what nevsky wanted to spread!Nevsky isnt a ruler he has no connection to the tsar ,he is a hero of a medieval republic novgorod!.I dont even know if you will ever read this but you have projected what you wanted the movie to be about on to it which is fine but here you come claiming that these were the views of eisenstein!

      The problem with the "intentional fallacy" idea (fron new critiscism) is that elude the importance of the autor (his ideas and his life) in the commentary. I don't think that the first part of Ivan The Terrible is really a critic of stalinism (maybe the second part that have been censored), in the first part the boyars are really depicted as ennemies of Russia and Ivan as the man who unifying the country and give to it his greatness. But in the second part Ivan is shown on a darker side, he is depicted as a crazy old and violent rullers. Sorry for my really unperfect english. @@TheAudiovisualEssayist

    The line of people at the end kind of looks like the sickle in the hammer and sickle, his sleeve hanging sort of looks like the hammer if you pause at the right time. Not sure if that's a huge reach or if it was intentional
