In 1966, two Brazilian men were found dead on Vintém Hill under bizarre circumstances that continue to perplex investigators and conspiracy theorists alike. Lying side by side, their bodies were discovered wearing matching lead masks—shields with no eyeholes—alongside cryptic notes. Were they victims of a cult ritual, a failed experiment, or something even more otherworldly?

Episode 3: V for Vendetta and ethics of violence 36:44

vor 4 years36:44

36:44

In the third episode of the Spinoza Triad John Gibbs, Richard Miller and Dan Rowland consider the film V for Vendetta. V for Vendetta is a 2005 dystopian political action film based on the 1988 graphic novel by Alan Moore and David Lloyd. The film is set in an alternative future where a neo-fascist totalitarian regime has subjugated the United Kingdom. It centres on V (portrayed by Hugo Weaving), a masked freedom fighter who attempts to ignite a revolution through elaborate terrorist acts, and Evey Hammond (portrayed by Natalie Portman) a young woman caught up in V's mission. Taking the film as a starting point we discuss, the morality of violence, the Frankfurt School, Kant's Categorical Imperative, Zizek's critique of the left as well as Jungian and Lacanian cultural analysis. https://anchor.fm/john-gibbs1/message https://sites.google.com/site/thepoliticsteacherorg/home email: jfgibbs105@gmail.com…

Episode 2: Conspiracy Theories and Carl Jung 34:41

vor 4 years34:41

34:41

In this episode of the Spinoza Triad, John Gibbs, Richard Miller and Dan Rowland consider conspiracy theories using the ideas of Carl Jung. In an age of unparalleled levels of education why do so many people believe theories which are so obviously absurd? Is it possible the concepts of the collective unconscious, cultural symbolism and architypes developed by analytical psychologist Carl Jung might provide some explanation. In this episode we explore how architypes of the hero, the trickster and the shadow might be relevant to a world of fake news, internet echo chambers and Donald Trump- which may every bit as dark, mysterious and frightening as the medieval landscapes of myth and daemons. https://anchor.fm/john-gibbs1/message mrg@thepoliticsteacher.org…

In this episode of the Spinoza Triad Richard Miller, Dan Rowland and John Gibbs consider Michel Foucault's concepts of power and discourse and wonder if they help to understand the Pandemic. Richard Miller supplies the steel guitar. “The first task of the doctor is ... political: the struggle against disease must begin with a war against bad government." Man will be totally and definitively cured only if he is first liberated...” "How can the free gaze that medicine, and, through it, the government, must turn upon the citizens be equipped and competent without being embroiled in the esotericism of knowledge and the rigidity of social privilege?"
