That's pig German for "Hegel's a dumbdumb."

>>9968959
The self is the thing being aware of itself,
or it is the thing being aware of that self awareness;
The self isn't just the awareness, it's that it is aware of it's own self awareness.

i am watching this hegel lecture right now and it's blowing my mind.. i feel that i have a decent surface understanding of kant's metaphysical views and my understanding is that hegel is the next significant part of the western philosophical narrative... good shit if you are interested. know nothing about the guy but he knows his shit

the sound doesn't bother me idk

also, at 16:42 in the video, the shit he starts saying about hegel's response/criticism of kant's epistemological beliefs is so crazy. hegel's ideas are wild...

Hegel is better than everyone before him because he is the one who ended everything they were talking about. he undermines everything that came before.
