New video poll

Hey!!! It's time to vote for the next video. None of the current options are explicitly about socialism as I want to vary the content a bit and do slightly less controversial stuff too. They're gonna come back later though. Here are the options:

1. This would be a video roughly explaining the role played by recognition in Hegel’s philosophy - how being recognized by other people is an important part of one’s conscious development, and how consciousness develops intersubjectively in Hegel’s view, I'd probably tie it into the master-slave dialectic. I’d apply this to posts made by incels on reddit - how their lack of interaction with other people makes them less capable of recognizing the validity of women, and conversely prevents themselves from developing as human beings. (If you don't know, incel is short for "involuntarily celibate" and is a term that has been adopted by severe misogynists who think that women are committing an injustice by not sleeping with them.)
   
2. I'd talk about the philosophy of the 1st season of the TV show True Detective, which is philosophical pessimism, explicitly talked about by one of the show's main characters Rust Cohle. I'd talk about Thomas Ligotti's philosophical influence on Rust's character, but also about the philosophical influences of Ligotti himself, such as Zapffe and Cioran. I'd explain some philosophical themes mentioned in the show, such as the depreciation and denial of life, pessimism as a worldview and antinatalism. You wouldn't need to have watched the show to understand the video, but I imagine this would be of interest mostly to fans of the show.
   
3. This would be a criticism of Sam Harris’ ethical theory which claims that science can answer ethical questions. I’d take a look at his book “The Moral Landscape" and some of his lectures, and criticize both the arguments and the conclusions of his theory, probably also getting angry at the way he doesn’t engage with the history of philosophy on this topic. Because I’d like to read the entirety of “The Moral Landscape” for this, this video would probably take longer to make.
