    1:14:58 Very disappointing to see moderators censor a comment from the audience here, but not surprising. Addressing dissenting opinions on factual interpretation is exactly the goal of republishing the book. The moderator did too much, the *unnecessary and disruptive* censorship is exactly what opponents to the facts attack, the presenters are the most competent to respond to the comments. The part l find surprising is Paxton not stating that the work of is to prevent a push back of ownership responsibility as willing collaborators. That's his whole career.

      Exactly. 1:14:58 Very disappointing to see moderators censor a comment from the audience here, but not surprising. Addressing dissenting opinions on factual interpretation is exactly the goal of republishing the book. The moderator did too much, the unnecessary and disruptive censorship is exactly what opponents to the facts attack, the presenters are the most competent to respond to the comments. l might be obtuse, but the part l find surprising is Paxton not stating that the work is to prevent denial and obfuscation. That's his whole point, and he gets tired of talking about it at the panel presenting the republication? The word that is repeated is 'forget'. Should say obfuscation and denial. l noticed a weird semantic contradiction from the NYT interview published several days ago on Oct 25, 2024. Quote: (Fascism /Trumpism comes) "from below as a mass phenomenon, and the leaders are running to keep ahead of it." It means the masses lead, so it's not "leaders", it's "figure heads" or similar. l know leader in French is "chef" and is also figure head. Don't want to cone off like l'm nitpicking, but that comment from this audience member is exactly a semantic issue, and Paxton dispatched it rather than confront it as he puts it.

    I see huge similarity between this medieval Cultural Appropriation and the current Cultural Appropriation of indigenous spirituality by the New Age Movement ... New Agers 'steal' Indigenous sacred traditions, revamp them to make them compatible with Western cultures - a process which often takes the meaning out of them - and then often create their own fake indigenous ceremonies, which then get passed off as 'real' to other people who are not so knowledgeable. My expertise is as a shamanologist, with 40 years of experience and study with indigenous 'wisdom keepers', but I have been a lover (and performer) of trobador music for even longer... incidentally, even even the very word is stolen - it's French, troubadour is really spelt trobador in the Occitan language, the French added the two 'u's I do not think there has to be state agents in the theft of culture - there is no state agents in the theft of indigenous spirituality by the New Age Movement - it is a cultural magpieism - people see something 'shiny' and want to steal it.

    Definitely the "future and its emotionality" must be studied because its definitions might include such health outcomes to make an endemic population a role model of development for future gains, definitely their might be some definition of future, despite the less rigour and less scientific definition of the administrative part of lomidine. Brilliant case for medical anthropology including the privilege, the neglect of privileged, the neglect of human consent even definition of consent, eradication politics, shifting wonders definition, the cultural power of wonders, making definitions to form ethnic and races by doctors, role of power at every level to feel empowered by the prejudices on both side but with a power inequality, did the job attitude, post op complications of OPD based day surgery in phenomenology apart from adverse and common complications, the guilt of injecting, mobs killing same doctors, the promise of committee formation to investigate, etc.

    We have a new beast. The world has only gotten worse as the new beast works at enslaving us. The beast that is working at forcing us to our knees with hunger and fear. History shows us that freedom is always temporary. Our only hope is the return of the King. Jesus Christ is our only hope. Without his return we continue to repeat history.

    Camus' vision of humanism is beautiful, but does not take into account that there will always be those who thirst for power, have little or no empathy, and have an incredible will. How do we armor ourselves against them? How do we push back? How do we stop violent and ill-willed people?

      I think that Camus knows very well that these evil people will always appear, you can get this idea at the end of the novel "The Plague". And the solution, you can see it in this speech in the video where he talks about sincerity, union and revolt. Life is a constant struggle, it's a tragedy, and Camus recognized that.

      You´re so right.

As I say: There are people, there are animals & there are insects. I could vomit. In regard to that evil, Hitler was some kind of a romantic hermit....besides, I don´t think he even knew that some people like Mengele existed, his opinion about this would´ve been quite interesting.
