40. TWS03 - Who Art Thou to the Bloody Priest of Nemi? Also, Why Libertarians ARE the Cuture War

[00:00:45] Who Art Thou to the Bloody Priest of Nemi? Also, Why Libertarians ARE the Culture War This week we take a look at the culture war, since Max Stirner begins his critique of the Ancients in the second chapter of The Ego and His Own by firing a shot at the past. The Culture War is something that is almost universally misunderstood; for "Culture" is itself a concept that people misuse all of the time as if it meant something like "what I like" or "what I do not like"--where "culture" thus appears as a social-construction. But today we take a deeper look at the psychological origins of culture and its roots in anthropology, ethnography, and philology. We shall draw upon some insights of James G. Frazer in his seminal book, The Golden Bough, and analyze the cult of Diana of the Wood to provide us with some key archetypes. Later, we extrapolate these insights by confronting GWF Hegel's infamous Master-Slave Dialectic [00:41:21], as it, too, is central to this era's so-called Culture War.
