Show Notes
"Hegel taught me that things can be true and false at the same time. In fact, to expect that, and therefore to understand something, you have to know the boundaries that separate it from what it isn’t. What it isn’t is part of understanding what it is. When you have that in your mind, then when you want to understand capitalism, you have to understand what separates it from everything else. The minute you have that, you have an 'else.' Now you can compare. That is what human beings do. When you see a cat and a dog, your brain begins to organize that these are different. Out of that might come a notion: I really like cats, or I really don’t care much for dogs, or vice versa. That is all bingo."
