At the end there was an interest in exploring how sovereignty played a role in other societies and in my opinion the Dawn of Everything by Graeber has sections that explore this and based on what is explored in the book I would disagree that all sovereignty looks like how it is explored in this podcast. The ability of individuals to put distance between such powers is an important factor to the control of the sovereign.

Vic sounds here like back when Jordan Peterson was describing Foucault. "He's just saying the obvious about everything and we aren't living in North Korea and he didn't pay lip service to that specific distinction within this text about a broad structural observation so it's stupid and I don't like it." To quote the same idiot(Peterson): "read more."

It is funny, (and annoying), how for Victor everything is dumb and obvious except whatever thing he is interested in. He claims Agamben is obvious and then goes onto discussing with 1Dime the "key relevance" of something like "woke right" definition. I guess Victor only serves the purpose of engaging with someone at the level of a undergrad indifferent student for pedagogical purposes, but it is extremly annoying
