Episode #249 ... The Trap of Modern Cynicism - Peter Sloterdijk

Published 14 hours ago
Description

Today we talk about the book Critique of Cynical Reason by Peter Sloterdijk. Cynicism as a defense mechanism. Why the cynic isn't crazy. The way it ladders up into institutions and infects things like our language. Diogenes as a counter example of a mode of being that rejects pieces of society. Hope you love it. :)
