- Explore the philosophy of Hannah Arendt, and get to know her strategies to combat the threat of totalitarianism and oppression.
--
Philosopher Hannah Arendt was a German Jew who dedicated herself to understanding how the Nazi regime came to power, and more specifically, how it inspired so many atrocities. She believed the true conditions behind the unprecedented rise of totalitarianism weren’t specific to Germany, and developed theories on how to best combat such threats. Joseph Lacey explores the work of Hannah Arendt.

this reminds me of Orwell's 1984. "Thinking is our greatest weapon, and it takes personal courage to defy what we're told to believe."
It takes courage because a deviate belief is danger. To be wrong is very bad. What we hear from other people is usually correct.
Yet most people are sheep who follow the crowd.
Only the brave think for themselves and then express it.
I feel like Winston Smith, the main character in Orwell’s 1984, when he mused that he feels like he is a minority of one. My friends and even family members were brainwashed by fear and false narratives.
It takes courage to defy AIPAC and call out Israel in America and Western Europe esp in politics and media. It takes critical thinking and courage to defy what all the powers that be and institutions tell us to think and see and not see. That’s what happened in Germany after all

This all requires a certain level of critical reasoning...and a thirst for finding Truth. These basics are sadly missing from too many American 'citizens'.
Once upon our democratic republic; schools taught critical thinking skills. Guess under which political party did that practice end?!
Wheres the native ?
Only because those values are not encouraged and actively kept down.
That's because so many Americans are so lazy when it comes to critical thinking, that it's easier for a fascist leader and his group of thugs to do the thinking for them.

I think it's pretty clear at this point that 2024 America owes 1930s Germany an apology for being so judgy.
It's actually much worse. Germany in the 1930s was going through severe hyperinflation then deflation and an economic depression. The standards of living in the US in 2024 is substantially higher than that of Germany in the 1930s which makes it so much worse.
@@VB-oq3wpThere wasn't even an economic depression this time people were just duped into thinking there was one because the prices were higher after barely avoiding economic catastrophe
@VB-oq3wp Absolutely correct. America has no excuse.
Nazis were popular in America until the war broke out.
Its an uncomfortable truth, that in the same situation you would probably support them too, even if just out of safety. Everyone likes to think they would be part of the badass underground resistance, but most people just want to get on with their lives.
And despite supporting the regime, only a small portion of people could stomach being a concentration camp guard and seeing mass suffering in person. "Out of sight, out of mind" is an extremely powerful thing.

In my experience, the people who harmed me caused less damage to my psyche than the ones who knew I was being harmed yet did nothing to stop it.
Yup. Nothing hurts worse than the people you thought cared about you watch you suffer
It's basically a Double Whammy situation.
First, there's the aggression from the cult and their leader. And then they control the narrative to blame anybody who won't cater to them.
Then there's everyone else in the background. Who pretend like we don't exist.
Some cultures are less prone to it than others. But we're not one of those cultures.
For me it was the people who actually were getting a kick out of that and chose to join in. And those people are the ones I’ll never forgive or forget and will take the first chance at vengeance if I ever get it

the human condition by hannah arendt was an absolutely marvelous account of human existentialism and the deeper agencies and individualities that so uniquely characterize each human being distinctly from one another. it was such a joy to read and dissect the human condition a few school term back at university and i find the account to be more salient than ever in its commentary of both the political climate and its underpinnings in relation to modernity. when men are wholly isolated from one another, no longer engaging in discourse and action and ridding oneself of the plurality of individualities that define each one of us, we are paving the way for isolationistic political trajectories to take over the public sphere. arendt saw it more than 60 years ago, and those words are as pertinent as ever.

This leads to fertile ground for rampant populism that is currently plaguing these societies, where soundbites are a greater cause for action than intellectual reasoning.

“She saw modernity as an age ruled by labor, where individuals produce goods and services, rather than share ideas and shape communities.. and these conditions provided fertile ground for totalitarianism regimes”.
So Arendt believed that poverty - spiritual and moral poverty - was the basis of totalitarianism regimes, which bred evil.
Let us think about that for a moment.
I don't get it. What are you insinuating?
extreme poverty creates totalitarianism and at times the resistance to the totalitarianism.
Before 1929, the Nazis were unpopular, its ideals didn't spread. But in 1929, the great depression came and the Nazis had a surge in popularity and by 1932 they were the world's largest political party, and in 1933 they rose to power, and by 1934 they became a totalitarian dictatorship. Poverty is a major factor that rallies people into such ideologies. The simple promise of ending the problems is enough for them to rally around the dear leader because at the end of the day no one wants to sleep hungry or die poor.
@@shubhnamdeo2865

I hear the price of eggs was high in Weimar Germany. It makes perfect sense.
Its happening again
Stanford Prison Experiment showed that a great number of people would harm others if so instructed by an authority. Yes, evil is often banal, mundane, normal. But so is good. Hero's are ordinary people that act on their morals and convictions. In the moment, they trust their own evaluation of truth more than authority and reprimand. And then they return to normal. So too, evil is done in moments of ignorance, weakness, and fear before a return to normal. Blind conformity to acceptable views, whatever they may be, is the real enemy.
Americans know the answer to this one. After all, 73M voted for Trump & that decision isn't going to end well either.
There's no better book than explaining these sorts of regimes is 1984, actually I have a feeling Orwell saw the future coming through his novel. In addition, if you think of actual dictatorships, we have the cases of Venezuela & Cuba whose regimes seem endless.

IDIOCRACY. 🥴😵😵💫🤪👻🤠🤯😶🌫🤡💩👹👺
Because People are suffering and desires change in society, and Harris doesn't have any radical policies?
@@du_san stupidity mixed with bigotry.
Ah yes, because Trump is the answer to all your problems? Idiots. Imbeciles. You get what you deserve.
So what do you call what Israel is doing to the Palestinians now?
Palestine is occupying and genociding Israel! Israel is only defending itself! Free Israel!
@@servantofaeie1569copy and pasting lies
A war to retrieve hostages living in terrible conditions being completely ignored?
@@Lizard_Riisrael doesn't care about hostages, silly. They just want to flatten Gaza and build resorts over mass Graves. Common misconception though!
@@Lizard_Riif Israel really wants hostages, they would have got them 6 months ago

Ask republicans…they just voted him

Am I the only one studying up on the rise of the third Reich as much as possible right now?
It is 1933 Germany in the U.S. right now. Is it time to flee? What happens if the walls go up to keep us in?
Clowns will be clowns
I wish other Europeans were also charged for their crimes against humanity forced through colonization. Especially the britisher's but their descendants are mostly proud of the actions of their ancestors. They claim it was a long time ago and we should get over it. Their ancestors were smart and powerful and what not. Guess time will do the justice.
Is someone who's indigenous I really wish people would stop bringing up the past constantly like it's a weapon to use against other people. At some point we're going to have to put down all the anger we have about things that happen before most of us were even alive and move on. The very fact that you would bring this up when clearly this video is about making reference to what's happening. Israel and Gaza is just right on the nose. It's like the video made a point and it flew right over your head.

Sadly there are still edge kids that unironically support him to this day.
Sadly, they are not all edgy teenagers, they are mostly adults.
A lesson that Americans will no doubt ignore like every other lesson before it

True
external peace is a lack of something so maintenance is a deceptive descriptor.
1:15 This feels at first shockin to me, but quickly makes sense when i think about it... They always want to envision their own evils as not evil; they need to explain things away with simple answers like this
To do otherwise is to notice that the nazis were inspired hvily by eugenics programs across the globe, esp in USA, as well as other such horrible actions... Like reconsiderin whether internment camps and concentration camps are just two sides of the same coin, or entirely diff kinds of behaviour so that they cud keep believin their own actions not evil
Thanks to the work of ppl like Hannah Arendt tho, we have a far better picture of what it looks like for a nation to succumb to fascism; a pic we can use today to watch out for the rise of fascism again, as we know that the same ppl who convince themselves theyre not evil while doin evil acts... Theyll fall down the same rabbit holes and come to believe their actions good; for the sake of the betterment of all, for protectin against some vague threat from some minority group, for the sake of the country...
Theyll always find justifications for their evils; so that they need not see themselves as evil
