The guy in my profile pic is my relative Rudolph Loewenstein, who was Lacan’s analyst for 6 years. Both Lacan and Loewenstein were intelligence agency assets.
Does that mean that every intervention of the Real causes us to scramble and try to 'suture' the Symbolic order, for example by inventing entire theory of complex numbers? Is there some relationship to psychological trauma with these interventions?
"the majorityd of Americans gave a thumbs up sign to people burning down a police station" uh no that didn't happen. if you pollled all Americans you think a majority would have approved of that? Iin a country that chooses trump and Kamala a top prosecutor as their choices for president? give me a break that's an asinine assertion
What a fantastic discussion! I always love hearing Todd go back to the basics of Lacanian theory.
All three episodes with Todd are AMAZING. Please have him back!
This is wonderful.
Brilliant discussion

Wasn't Loewenstein an Ego psychologist, one of these which Lacan opposed?

Turned off at the dog-shit left/right take.
McGowan is at his weakest and least interesting when talking about politics.
