Coffee With Dr. Kashey

Ep# 194: Dumbass Men Throughout History


Listen Later

In this episode, Dr. Kashey discusses an essay by the famous French Renaissance philosopher, Lord Uncle Monta, titled "How the Soul Discharges Its Emotions Against False Objects When Lacking Real Objects." He shares amusing tips and insights from Monta's work, which humorously illustrates how people often vent their frustrations on inanimate objects or engage in irrational behaviors when faced with difficulties or setbacks. Monta's essay highlights the human tendency to find scapegoats or fabricate reasons to justify negative emotions, even when those emotions are misguided or disproportionate to the situation. Dr. Kashey draws attention to the timeless wisdom in Monta's observations, which remain relevant and insightful centuries later, reminding us of the absurdity and futility of venting anger on "false objects" instead of addressing the root causes of our frustrations.
