Скачать или смотреть The Absurd Philosophy of the Joker

This video discusses the movie "Joker" from the perspective of absurdism, a philosophical idea. Absurdism is about how life can seem meaningless and chaotic. The video looks at how the main character, Arthur, faces many problems in his life and eventually becomes the Joker.

Arthur has a tough life: he works a lousy job, faces ridicule, and deals with mental health issues. He dreams of becoming a comedian but faces continuous disappointments. However, he realizes that life is absurd and decides to embrace it.

As the Joker, he rejects societal norms and doesn't care about the consequences of his actions. He no longer seeks fame but finds freedom in chaos. He even kills his idol, symbolizing the end of his old dreams.

The video suggests that in an absurd world with no clear purpose, the Joker finds his own meaning by embracing the chaos and absurdity of life. He reinvents himself and is unapologetically authentic, even if it means rejecting societal values. Ultimately, the Joker represents the idea that life is a kind of dark comedy, and he chooses to laugh at it.
