Disillusionism

23 episodes

Mookie Tenembaum is the founder of the Disillusionism think-tank, a philosophy that states: 1. Reality as we experience it is a teleological narrative, i.e. goal-directed, in which material and illusory parts tend to converge. 2. This narrative facilitates and allows the individual to interact out of inertia, in synchrony and in tune with “the other” and “the others”. 3. This interaction occurs, in turn, escaping from and dealing with an endless string of suffering and trying to handle it, with the threat of our own terrifying death always on the horizon.
