Neville's Answer to the Problem of Human Freedom

Several challenges to human freedom - how does Neville answer?

Introduction

1. The institutional retraints on freedom and imposed formation of self:

family
education
religion
work
popular commercial culture, mass media, social media
government
finance
healthcare system
military, war, sports, etc.

2. C.G. Jung and Individuation...

locate yourself within, define yourself rather than letting the world tell you who you are
don’t try to fix your weak points; focus on your strengths
establish some connection with the higher (seemingly outside oneself)

3. Political information focusing on individual liberties

E12 - What characterizes programs of institutional mass hypnosis and mass psychosis?

YT channel: Academy of Ideas

Obedience and the Rise of Authoritarianism
The Psychology of Conformity
The Manufacturing of a Mass Psychosis - Can Sanity Return to an Insane World?

Counter-attack:

bring order to our own minds;
humour and ridicule;
parallel structures.
call for courage -- just as this virtue is called for in Neville’s 12 Disciplines of Mind E5

4. Conclusion

By comparison to the above: the fundamental and radical quality of Neville’s idea:

- “tell him who he is” -- this is the one unique and powerful message that is missed by every institution, school of thought, political philosophy, system of virtues, etc...
