This includes Badiou's theory of being and ‘Events,' his truth procedures, ethics, love, and his theory of the subject, and we try to apply them to current times. We also discuss Badiou’s “metapolitics,” Badiou’s differences with Marxist theory, and his relation to Maoism and political Marxism, and more. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in philosophy and radical egalitarian politics.  Timestamp 0:00 Introduction 04:24 Relationship to Marxist politics 09:14 Being, Multiplicity, Mathematics 18:27 The Event and the Subject 25:59 Mao vs Stalinism 40:57 What is an Event? 50:52 Politics as Sequences 58:28 Truth and the Three Subjects  1:11:30 History, Agency, and Platonism 01:22:13 Resurrection and St. Paul  Check out 1Dime's videos if you haven't already: ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@1Dimee/⁠ Become a Patron at Patreon.com/OneDime to support the show Be sure to give 1Dime Radio a 5-star rating if you enjoyed!
