Through Freudo-Lacanian concepts, Helen Rollins argues that human beings arent utilitarian and rational creatures; our subjectivity encompasses de-naturalised drives that arent seen in other animals.

I don’t know how… Basically, I’m somewhere in between “I hate the world” or “I’m indifferent towards it.” But the whole of reality, it’s just it. It’s stupid. It is out there. I don’t care about it. Love, for me, is an extremely violent act. Love is not “I love you all.” Love means I pick out something, and it’s, again, this structure of imbalance. Even if this something is just a small detail… a fragile individual person… I say “I love you more than anything else.” In this quite formal sense, love is evil.” ― Slavoj Žižek Original piece: https://theunhappyman.substack.com/p/write-through-love {Podcast} Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4ryEqjut4r6SMtfxLdM1Le Anchor: https://anchor.fm/rahul-samaranayake {Website} https://rahulsam.me/ {Social Media} https://twitter.com/trsam97 https://www.minds.com/trahulsam/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/rahul-samaranayake-981a9315b/ https://trahulsam.medium.com/ https://www.instagram.com/name_is_rahul/ Facebook Group: https://goo.gl/JoL9CA If the ideas I discuss in this channel evoke your interest, consider visiting https://theunhappyman.substack.com/ Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for “fair use” for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, education and research.
