Satirical criticism of our dystopian system - here are the lyrics:

[Intro]
Hey ...
You ...
I wanna tell you:
[Chorus]
I want to love capitalism, for so many things it brings,
I want to love capitalism, but joy to me it stings.
[Verse]
We owe him so much, what would our wealth be without his reign?
He’s the thread that binds us all, the bark of our shared pain.
[Chorus]
I want to love capitalism, for so many things it brings,
I want to love capitalism, but joy to me it stings.
[Verse]
Yet what I am, I owe to him, I’ve embraced his guiding light,
The struggle keeps me moving forth, else laziness feels right.
We hear of social coldness, even cavemen felt that plight,
But now we’ve got our heating, our warm water, and iPhones bright.
[Chorus]
I want to love capitalism, for so many things it brings,
I want to love capitalism, but joy to me it stings.
[Verse]
It’s probably those losers, who depend on others' grace,
Their lives are full of chaos, they put guilt right in my face.
It stems from this pious upbringing, this soft spot for the weak,
As if they’re virtuous beings, it’s laughable, so bleak!
[Chorus]
I want to love capitalism, for he loves me in return,
He’s given me so much, in this life I’ve much to learn.
[Chorus]
I want to love capitalism, and I hope he hears my plea,
I want to love capitalism, with all that’s part of me.
[guitar solo]
[Verse]
Though I’ve cursed him in my anger, criticized without refrain,
He’s got a heart in all his flaws, he’s helped me stake my claim.
[Chorus]
I want to love capitalism, and I hope he hears my plea,
I want to love capitalism, with all that’s part of me.
[Outro]
I want to love capitalism, I wish and yet I can’t,
And this will go on endlessly, till one of us is gaunt.

This lecture discusses the 20th century philosopher and historian of ideas, Pierre Hadot, and focuses on chapter 7 of his book, Philosophy As a Way of Life. 

He discusses the criticisms Hadot levies against Michel Foucault's views, which center upon his making the self too central a focus in his discussions of philosophical practices as "technologies of the self", and in overlooking important philosophical traditions and schools of antiquity.

Barn på scenen lär vara det svåraste som finns att regissera, liksom djur. I detta avsnitt har vi sett flera levande barn, och barndomstrauman, liksom några sceniska djur. Vi pratar om detta samt om följande verk: Trollflöjten av Mozart på Folkoperan i regi av Stéphane Braunschweig , Du vet ingenting om Kikki Danielsson i dramatisering och regi av Martina Montelius på Teater Brunnsgatan Fyra samt Leka för livet av Bess Wohl i regi av Elin Skärstrand på Playhouse teater. Dessutom har Cecilia åkt utanför Stockholms tullar och sett No 3 - Den bittra dansaren av pseudonymen Ludvig Bildstein på Moment teater i Gubbängen. Loretto är å sin sida trött på den nygamla debatten om triggervarningar. 

Medverkande: Loretto Villalobos och Cecilia Djurberg (prod och redigering)

96. Hunt for Critics (Edge of History)

[Verso 1]
Num circo escondido, onde a verdade se perde,
As máscaras caem, mas o medo não cede.
Entre palhaços e monstros, a mentira a brilhar,
Fantasmas se erguem, e ninguém quer olhar.
Ela com os olhos cegos de tanto tremer,
Esconde a dor, sem querer se perder.
Ele com coragem tenta entender,
Mas no mundo de ilusão, 
há coisas que se devem esconder.

[Refrão]
É um grande espetáculo que custa encarar
Apontamos dedos, para não participar
Mas quem se mostra sem se conhecer
Traz verdades que todos acabam por temer

[Verso 2]
No palco da vida, todos a encenar,
Uns se arriscam, outros tentam se calar.
Mas quem se revela, sem nada a esconder,
Mostra verdades que ninguém quer entender.
Entre risos e aplausos, o medo se faz,
Mas quem ousa ser livre enfrentar a paz.
Ela viu no espelho, o reflexo do seu ser,
Mas no mundo de ilusão, 
há coisas que se devem esconder.

[Refrão]
É um grande espetáculo que custa encarar
Apontamos dedos, para não participar
Mas quem se mostra sem se conhecer
Traz verdades que todos acabam por temer

[Verso 3]
Juntos, enfrentaram o jogo e a ilusão,
A coragem de mostrar a sua revolução.
E enquanto o circo roda sem parar,
Eles se levantaram, prontos para desfilar.
No meio do caos, encontram a verdade,
Sem máscaras, sem medos, vivendo com liberdade.
No final, uma lição por aprender:
Que no mundo de ilusão, 
há coisas que se devem esconder.

[Refrão]
É um grande espetáculo que custa encarar
Apontamos dedos, para não participar
Mas quem se mostra sem se conhecer
Traz verdades que todos acabam por temer

Coisas Que Se Devem Esconder

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century German philosopher, sociologist of knowledge, and phenomenologist, Max Scheler's work Ressentiment, which provides an interpretation of Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of that same name. It focuses on his discussion in the third part of the work "Christian Morality and Ressentment" providing an assessment of Nietzsche's criticisms of and charges against Christianity, understood primarily as a system of morality.
