Felt cocky, so i tried reading Hegel

Other philosophy communities have only interpreted the world in various ways. The point, however, is to change it. [ x ]

I spent the first year or two of the pandemic walking around outside while listening to podcasts about hegel and other marx-related philosophers (like Why Theory and the sadly defunct Red Library). The issue here is that a lot of podcasts that discuss Hegel are lib, but I still feel like I got a lot out of it, although I kind of shuddered when you were like “what the fuck does he mean by ‘notion’?” Because yeah, what does he actually mean by that?
Sometimes I would get up in the morning and drink some coffee and read a page or two of the Phenomenology and google everything that confused me. I didn’t get too far but it was still pretty rewarding.
