/393/ Emotion Sickness: The Politics of Feelings (I) ft. Nina Power


Listen Later

On the politics of emotions and emotionalism.
 
Philosopher Nina Power (an editor and columnist at Compact Magazine) kicks off this series by talking to us about anger, hate, and evil.
Do we complain too little or too much? Should we be more repressed?
  • Political passions were meant to be dead. Has anger overtaken apathy?
  • Should we hate our enemies? Is that okay?
  • Has contemporary society become hysterical?
  • Why does everyone want to be a victim today? How does this relate to self-interest?
  • Is evil a psychological concept?
