Your tastes and values are mediated by currently prevailing conditions of modern capitalism and tawdry economic determined circumstances, whereas mine are simply objective.

@liamvhogan @mike your sources are lying. I assure you there’s still an arch window.
Morris (teddy bear) is still shifty though.

@liamvhogan will you fight? Or will you perish like a dog?

@liamvhogan reminds me of that time Chomsky debated Foucault. Chomsky’s optimistic desire for a shared moral universe was quite at odds with Foucault’s “amoral” but nonetheless concrete ethical position. At base Foucault, like Bourdieu and Bataille, doesn’t trust discourse to provide the ethical value of an action. Instead it is about the microrelations of power in the moment of the moral crisis that matter. Fascinating stuff.

@DrD no it’s easier than ghat, I am simply right, and everyone else wrong
-
@liamvhogan but do you want us to think you’re right too?
-
@DrD oh that’s not necessary at all, in fact it’d take away from some of the joy of having takes on a social media platform
-
@DrD UGHHHH you’ve made me consider it now.
For what it’s worth I’m entirely on the side of Bourdieu that values and ethics are constituted by power and by being reproduced in processes where power and social forces act (like schooling, communities, parenting, acculturation to work and career) by within those it’s obviously possible and necessary to have ethical standpoints which are right and independent of individual and collective upbringing-reproduction, or else how will future generations decide to pursue better leisure activities and finally abandon the fucking stupid game of golf
