mhm. (the “fascist” in my post is just inflammatory rhetorical abuse and not my actual opinion). i think it’s a clear case of motivated reason contributing to deficient political analysis

i keep wanting to say things like “to me it’s not the most pertinent thing in the world necessarily but…” and catching myself because i basically do think these micrological things are some of the most politically significant, at least cumulatively

i think you’re right to point out the theological/political divide - the point in politics is not (in this context) about who is to blame. it’s not about purity of soul. it’s about acknowledging the micrological ways in which we are bound up in the world in order to combat it more effectively

MM § 18 the GOAT
Refuge for the homeless. - The predicament of private life today is shown by its
arena. Dwelling, in the proper sense, is now impossible. The traditional residences we grew up in have grown intolerable: each trait of comfort in them is paid for with a betrayal of knowledge, each vestige of shelter with the musty pact of family interests. The functional modern habitations designed from a tabula rasa, are living-cases manufactured by experts for philistines, or factory sites that have strayed into the consumption sphere, devoid of all relation to the occupant: in them even the nostalgia for independent existence, defunct in any case, is sent packing.
Modern man wishes to sleep close to the ground like an animal, a German magazine decreed with prophetic masochism before Hitler, abolishing with the bed the threshold between waking and dreaming. The sleepless are on call at any hour, unresistingly ready for anything, alert and unconscious at once. Anyone seeking refuge in a genuine, but purchased, period-style house, embalms himself alive. The attempt to evade responsibility for one's residence by moving into a hotel or furnished rooms, makes the enforced conditions of emigration a wisely-chosen norm. The hardest hit, as everywhere, are those who have no choice. They live, if not in slums, in
bungalows that by tomorrow may be leaf-huts, trailers, cars, camps, or the open air. The house is past. The bombings of European cities, as well as the labour and concentration camps, merely proceed as executors, with what the immanent development of technology had long decided was to be the fate of houses. These are now good only to be thrown away like old food cans. The possibility of residence is annihilated by that of socialist society, which, once missed, saps the foundations of bourgeois life. No individual can resist this process. He need only take an interest in furniture design or interior decoration to find himself developing the arty-crafty sensibilities of the bibliophil…

on a human level i don’t expect otherwise, but i am extremely uncomfortable with people attempting to excuse and downplay their own culpability. it’s _fine_ and understandable, but it’s really not fine

skinner has a more narrow focus and comes away with a respectful but less compelling orientation imo

we’re not in an epistemic position where we could know whether this is one or not. the only ethical obligation is to establish a state of things that makes ethics possible

no right life in the wrong one :)

Quentin Skinner et al., POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY: THE VIEW FROM CAMBRIDGE, 17

Freedom, on the other hand, is too contested a concept to do anything foundational With it-rather than operating as a single potentially unified and unifying concept, it collapses on scrutiny into a multiplicity of highly diverse uses. The only way to deal with this is to integrate freedom into wider ethical conceptions (Luther's 'freedom of the Christian', Kant's 'autonomy', Humboldt's conception of freedom as development of the powers and capacities of the individual, Constant's liberty of the moderns', and so forth). But when one does that, freedom loses its apparent unity and much of its specious motivational power, and Will need to be replaced by something more comprehensive and complete (Christianity, laissez-faire, existentialism, etc.). Any such more concrete replacement Will of course evidently be highly controversial, replacing a mere illusion of consensus With the reality of gross disagreement. So it is difficult to see which Way to go. As for 'civil society', this seems a completely confused concept that is not Worth anyone's time trying to untangle.
Melissa Lane disagreed on the question of freedom. Progress has been made in our understanding of the structure of different possible accounts of freedom.
Significant advances have been made, for example, by Amartya Sen in elucidating the notion of capabilities, by loseph Raz in elaborating an account of personal autonomy and its relation to the availability of valuable choices, and by Philip Pettit and Quentin Skinner in recovering and developing republican conceptions of liberty. She agreed with RG that the choice between such diverse accounts would depend on one's attitude to broader ethical conceptions, yet such work
had clarified the nature of possible accounts and had dispelled certain myths about the possible contours of the concept of freedom. Raz's work, for example, had challenged the notion that authority and autonomy can o…
