Sisi Opini

“Kalau kamu tidak pernah mengalami krisis eksistensial,

kamu belum hidup sepenuhnya”

-D.A.D

I feel like that quote is better said in Indonesian...

it gives a more dramatic effect, no?

Existential crisis is a phenomenon that is widely talked about

yet sometimes misunderstood. Some say that it is a phenomenon where

we question our motivations in life; Others say that some have it due

to a lifestyle of hedonism - where a person seldom feels any hardships

and was struck down when said hardship comes to them in the form of an existential crisis.

But what does our trio of

wannabe philosophist hosts think? Listen on to find out!

Facts can be generalized, but generalizations cannot be made into facts – Ajeng

The trait of generalizing seems to be widespread in society; Not only Indonesian people but the whole world. This can be seen very clearly on social media, if there is a commotion, of course, there are one or two profiles that generalize the target's attributes. On the other hand, if something is special, there are of course one or two profiles that generalize to that attribute.

If generalizations can be inferred to have both positive and negative effects - in general - Can we say that generalization is constructive? or vice versa? Listen to find out!

"Idealism Inspires, Realism Works" - The Hindu

The following quote is taken from an article written for The Hindu - an Indian Blog that may or may not advocate for an ethnostate - for an article talking about realism vs idealism. Despite the source, We still think that the idea and points that they make actually

make sense.

So what does this have to do with idealism and realism you may ask? The debate on whether either one or the other is better is a debate as old as civilization itself. It has torn apart friendships, cause rifts in business partnerships and sometimes can even cause wars.

In this episode, Jae, Ajeng and Fikar will discuss be this matter knowing their stances are very different with very different opinions. How will their debate end? Will this cause a rift between them? Will this age-old topic of discussion be the end of Sisi Opini?

Listen on to this... rather different episode to find out!

"We live in a society" -The Dark Knight

Does that sound familiar? Yes of course, it came from one of the best movies ever made. And the person who said it; Joker is one of the most beloved villains of all time. So what does that have to do with our topic? As individuals we are bound by the shackles of society, unable to be free to do as we please or risk losing your livelihood for the smallest of things society does not agree with. This phenomenon occurs worldwide and it's even more prevalent due to the existence of Social Media. What is it you ask? It's social pressure - a curse to some and a blessing to some. Most must have felt this multi dynamic phenomenon and so we wish to discuss its aspects purely with our opinions due to its unstable and diverse effects to different people.

Curious? Listen on to find out!

Have you ever felt that you were not enough? Or perhaps feeling unworthy despite what others think of you? You might be experiencing what's called Impostor Syndrome. No, not those impostors from that trending game, but a psychological phenomenon that a vast majority of people have felt at least

once in their lives. It's common, yet it is very seldomly talked about which is why Sisi Opini is trying to bring it to light by releasing this episode despite

our busy schedules. Interested? Stay tuned to find out!

We live in a situation where thoughts and opinions of the majority are always true while the opposite is true for minority thoughts and opinions.

In addition, many of us still rely on the assumptions of others - particularly the assumptions of the aforementioned majority group even if there is a chance that their assumptions are wrong. Furthermore, we can't conclude that something is 100% true or false especially in career planning.

In this episode we will discuss these assumptions regarding those with a career that is not aligned with their educational background (and is this not what the majority think is wrong?). This will be discussed with a Human Resource (HR) expert equipped with 20 years' worth of experience who is also in a career that does not align with his educational background. Curious to know more? Listen and Find out!

“If you were to enter a situation where you know that almost everyone is against you… what will you do?”

This is the question that we’ve (re: Fikar) asked ourselves before making this episode. The French Movie marketed by The American Company Netflix is filled to the brim with negativity before it’s even released. Curious movie enthusiasts will hesitate to watch this movie due to the amount of stigma and societal judgement pressed against them should they actually like the movie. Because of this, any positive or even neutral reviews for this film will be torn apart and its reviewers cancelled to oblivion.

That is why for this episode we’ve recruited a third member for our podcast - a “specialist” you might say - to aid us if things go south. In this episode, we will discuss Cuties holistically; looking at every element that makes this movie so unique (and controversial). We will also discuss why it is so difficult for even ourselves to be completely objective when reviewing this film. So strap on, put on your surgical mask and gloves, sharpen your scalpels and let’s dissect this beast of a movie.

“What I’m afraid of as a centre… is that people comment on my physical appearance first and I don’t like that.” - Shani JKT48.

Looks may be deceiving… or does it? In this episode we will discuss how physical appearance may have an effect on our perception on things. Some may think that when a person who is deemed attractive gets a promotion or being praised for their work - it is not because of their skills and talent - but instead because of their attractiveness. In a similar vein, someone who is perceived as less attractive missed the promotion because they are not noticed by their higher ups due to being less attractive. But we know that physical attractiveness is not all… or does it? Listen on to find out!

Don't forget about today, Remember and face it. If You can not face it, You will only be the child with the soul that is not growing (Go Moon Young - It's Okay Not To Be Okay K-Drama).

Life is about the process, we do not realize that we grow up every day. However, we face life with different self and mind. But can we stop the time for a while, to mark the history of how have things been going or even been celebrating with? Unfortunately, we can not do it! the only thing is just to face it! And that's actually what Go Moon Young's quote tells us about. 

In today's episode, We will talk about Life after college, a real-world, a cruel stage of life that teaches us to be readily expecting the unexpected, deal with the insecurity, and the uncertain thing that happens for no reason or the other way around. Discussing this topic might be slightly captivating yet amusing. However, you can still find the fact to earn something valuable through the story, 'cause it might happen to all of us!

"I Run Into Dilemmas All The Time. Situations Where It's Hard To Judge, Hard To Know What's Right, Make A Decision. This Is Not One Of Them. You Disgust Me. And Deserve To Die." - Geralt of Rivia (The Witcher).

Most of the things around us are rarely black and white. Bad things have good in them and Good things have bad in them. There are very few things that are completely good or completely bad. Unfortunately,

we have found one thing that is completely bad, thus the quote above.

In this episode we will talk about Cancel Culture, a vile, cancerous trend that destroys lives, inhibit freedom of speech and ruins relationships based on nothing but gossipp and inaccurate personal feeling.

A controversial topic since we know some of you partake in this culture. However, Cancel Culture is a topic that must be discussed as its removal to society will surely bring benefit to all.
