In this video Mark Manson explores the moral philosophy of Immanuel Kant.
Immanuel Kant (22 April 1724 – 12 February 1804) was a German philosopher and one of the central Enlightenment thinkers. Born in Königsberg, Kant's comprehensive and systematic works in epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, and aesthetics have made him one of the most influential and controversial figures in modern Western philosophy, being called the "father of modern ethics", "father of modern aesthetics" and, by bringing together rationalism and empiricism, the "father of modern philosophy".

"I would love to come out and party tonight guys, but I Kant" 😎

evil begins when you start treating people like things instead of people
-
"Lying to yourself is just as unethical as lying to others." In fact, you can only be honest with other people if you are able to be honest with yourself. That's the first step.

I said 'whoa' about a dozen times watching this. And us having a moral obligation for self-improvement truly resonated with me.
-
“Instead of grabbing his crotch , Kant made his argument with brutal rationality” 🤣 best line ever 😂
-
I agree with Kant. Im turning 38 this year, and after living a life pretty much exactly mirroring Kant's up to now, I have actively decided to stop chasing the glamourous things, and start chasing the meaning behind my actions. Everything now must have a purpose, and a meaning.
-
Whoever did the illustrations, I greatly appreciate the visualization while learning.
-
Explaining of such complex philosophical concepts with such ease, that's the content the internet needs
-
Wow. You explained Kant's rule so simply a kindergartner could grasp it Well done. EXTREMELY well done
-
"Something to hope for" seems to be the only thing keeping me alive
-
You spelled subjugate wrong so I’m going to pretend you were wrong about everything and I’m allowed to keep being a bad person
-
I'm not afraid to admit that Kant made my brain hurt when I was at school (and most likely far too young to appreciate him anyway), but this might be one of the best things I've seen on YouTube. Illuminating, entertaining and, above all, 100% relevant to our lives today. Brilliant!
-
"Treat humanity as ends and not means." Is precisely the kind of thing I'd try to get everyone else to believe.
-
Guys i feel so much relief when he said that no one would make a sustainable routine until the midle age, im 21 years old and im making pressure on myself to be thé best version that i Can be. Kant IS truely Amazing
-
This is my first time learning about Kant and I’ll say that he was WAY ahead of his time.
-
The philosophy is spot on. These are the words for the thoughts that I’ve been trying to properly structure.
-
I tried to decipher the thumbnail for about 2 minutes before giving up and watching the video.
-
Each person must never be treated only as a means to some other end, but must also be treated as an end themselves. Don't allow yourself to be treated as a means. Do your best because anything less is to treat ourselves as a means rather than an end. Are you maximizing your potential? Or are you treating your mind and your attention as a mere pleasure receptacle?
-
Probably the best Youtube video i have ever seen in twenty years. Kant thank you enough for it!
-
This perfectly explains the way I've come to practice moral philosophy. I've always struggled to express the way my brain worked with words, so this is revolutionary for me. Thank you for this video, as it is so eloquently produced that you can use it as a basis explanation of humanity itself.
