🫣🙃😏 Hypocritique 🫣🙃😏
The elementary critical gesture is to measure and evaluate the other’s position and conclude: “You are posturing.”
This is hypocritical by definition because it has to conceal its own imposture and assert its position to expose the other’s imposture [1].
The universal law of criticism favors “full arguments” against “empty arguments”. But the very form of any and all argumentation is phallic and therefore empty by definition. Every appearance of fullness owes to the concealment of one’s phallic imposture.
This is why and how reason always cons itself and makes up the conning of reason [2]. In other terms: Every criticism is a masculine Oedipal discrimination against a masculine Oedipal discrimination.
This is why, when all concrete criticisms “cancel” each other out, what finally remains operative is the abstract form of criticism that objects any and all masculine Oedipal discriminations.
This anti-masculine anti-Oedipal anti-discriminative final criticism says “Every law is unjust because it is just a law.”
Although this final gesture is wielded by feminism, it is formally masculine because it assumes the very position of the Primal Father (the elusive unfragile masculinity) whose postmodern incarnation is the Phallic Woman.
It doesn’t matter whether (1) biology supports the phallus and the woman is the formal supplement (gender), or (2) biology supports the woman and the phallus is the formal supplement (sex). What matters is that these elements are combined to make up the Phallic Woman and thereby resuscitate the Primal Father in the abstract.
The genuine analytic gesture, on the other hand, is essentially distinct from the critical gesture.
In contrast to the critic who explicitly declares “You are posturing (I’m strong)”, the analyst’s message does not owe its forcefulness to his strength or position, because his speech implicitly says “You are self-sabotaging.”
In contrast to the proud and assertive critic, a genuine analyst is both humbler and more honest. To make a physics analogy, if criticism is like the strong nuclear interaction (it’s about fission/fusion: energy), genuine analysis is like the weak nuclear interaction (it’s about decay: entropy) [3].

Echte Analyse liegt jenseits von Kritik: Kritik entlarvt Hochstapelei, Analyse offenbart Selbstsabotage — Işık Barış Fidaner
Die elementarste Geste der Kritik ist es, die Position des anderen zu messen und zu bewerten, um schließlich zu dem Schluss zu kommen: „Du stapelst hoch.“
Diese Haltung ist per Definition heuchlerisch, weil sie ihre eigene Hochstapelei verbergen und ihre Position behaupten muss, um die Hochstapelei des anderen aufzudecken [1].
Das universelle Gesetz der Kritik begünstigt „vollständige Argumente“ gegenüber „leeren Argumenten“. Aber die Form jedes Arguments ist phallisch und daher per Definition leer. Jede Erscheinung von Fülle verdankt sich der Verbergung der eigenen phallischen Hochstapelei.
Deshalb und so betrügt die Vernunft immer sich selbst und erfindet das Vortrügen der Vernunft [2]. Anders ausgedrückt: Jede Kritik ist eine männliche, ödipale Diskriminierung gegen eine männliche, ödipale Diskriminierung.
Deshalb bleibt, wenn sich alle konkreten Kritiken gegenseitig „aufheben“, schließlich die abstrakte Form der Kritik bestehen, die gegen jede und alle männlichen, ödipalen Diskriminierungen gerichtet ist.
Diese endgültige Anti-männliche, Anti-ödipale, Anti-diskriminative Kritik besagt: „Jedes Gesetz ist ungerecht, weil es nur ein Gesetz ist.“
Obwohl diese letzte Geste vom Feminismus angewandt wird, ist sie formal männlich, weil sie die Position des Urvaters (die schwer fassbare, unzerbrechliche Männlichkeit) einnimmt, dessen postmoderne Inkarnation die Phallische Frau ist.
Es spielt keine Rolle, ob (1) die Biologie den Phallus unterstützt und die Frau das formale Supplement ist (Geschlecht), oder (2) die Biologie die Frau unterstützt und der Phallus das formale Supplement ist (Sexualität). Wichtig ist, dass diese Elemente kombiniert werden, um die Phallische Frau zu erschaffen und damit den Urvater im Abstrakten wiederzubeleben.
Die echte analytische Geste hingegen ist von der kritischen Geste grundlegend verschieden.
Im Gegensatz zum Kritiker, der explizit erklärt: „Du stapelst hoch (Ich bin stark)“, bezieht der Analyst seine Kraft nicht aus seiner Stärke oder Position, weil seine Rede implizit sagt: „Du sabotierst dich selbst.“
Im Gegensatz zum stolzen und selbstbewussten Kritiker ist ein echter Analytiker sowohl demütiger als auch ehrlicher. Um eine Analogie aus der Physik zu ziehen: Wenn Kritik wie die starke Kernkraft ist (es geht um Spaltung/Fusion: Energie), dann ist echte Analyse wie die schwache Kernkraft (es geht um Zerfall: Entropie) [3].
