The Banality of Evil | Hannah Arendt | Keyword

Understanding history is not about understanding one side but all sides. It’s very important to distinguish between jews and Zionist Israel as well as Palestinians and Hamas

Thank you for taking the time and having the courage to make this video. I sincerely hope it does some good.

Thank you! Great clarity! Great to bring in a Jewish intellectual to shed the light on the past & the present!

I am so glad to see you use theory and philosophy to stand up for what’s right. I was always loving your vids but this is the best thing you’ve ever done. Don’t listen to the fascists! I am so proud and glad to have you!!!❤❤❤❤

so happy to see u speak on this in such an eloquent and informed way! free palestine!!

Great vídeo David . Thank you. You are a beacon of light

you're so amazing. thank you for putting in the work to make these complex ideas accessible

Checked in after a while, glad to see you are still doing these - thanks for that! Love the content, been here since "structure sign and play", keep it up!!!

I read Hannah Arendt's work a decade back and it opened my eyes. Thank you for the great video.

Hi David. I appreciate this to preface the in-depth analysis coming up of the book. Also, it's good to see your face again. After hearing the passion in your voice throughout the duration of your latest videos on Palestine, seeing you in your body, as weird as that sounds, is on some level comforting. I look forward to following your work in the coming weeks and months.

Thanks David, for this. Can't wait for more truth around these crucial and revealing events.

I appreciate your energy. This was a great introduction as to why someone should be involved in the horrors happening today. I was very agnostic and nihilistic towards all of this until a friend recently confronted me about it. Ever since then, I have slowly been educating myself on what is going on. It is of great concern, not only for the actual genocide happening, but of how the world will fundamentally change as each day passes that we all allow something like this to happen. I wanted to confront the fascism within myself and videos like yours are wonderful tools to have. I made a $25 donation for your efforts. Thank you.

Banality of evil. It's not down playing as her critiques suggested. But it offers a warning.

Ive wanted this video from you for years and it over delivered

thank you for this.

Thank You 🕯️

Thank you for this video! I feel like we have a historic responsibility to do everything we can to stop the genocide in Gaza but as individuals we don't have much power. Then I look at people in positions of power who can stop the bloodshed if they wanted to and see that they choose to enable the genocide rather than stopping it... those people are actively making the choice to collaborate in a crime against humanity. I say "If I were in that position, I would do anything to stop this genocide- " but then again, it takes Machiavellian character traits and potential to commit evil acts in order to occupy any position of power. Unfortunately, evil prevails.

Thank you for your education on these important subjects

Incisive and humanising as always. Your honesty is so appreciated ❤

Love you for this David. You can't even imagine how hard these conversations are in germany. The equating of zionism and Israel with jewish people in general is so strong here that criticizing Israel can get you in serious trouble for "antisemitism". While our "left wing" politicians are concerned with criminalizing support for palestine and while the police breaks up pro-palestine protests and beats up pro-palestine protestors, the AFD (modern day equivalent of the NSDAP) freely gains popularity and influence by the day. This country has learned nothing from history.
