A wave of sensitivity has swept our society. People apparently feel insulted for the smallest of reasons. Sensitivity may be a virtue - but are we too sensitive today? ???? Subscribe now to SRF Kultur Sternstunden on YouTube ???? https://www.youtube.com/srfkulturster... People are vulnerable beings. Becoming sensitive to this vulnerability is therefore certainly a moral step forward. The Me Too and Black Lives Matter movements have been accompanied by a further surge in sensitivity in recent years. Since then, uncertainty has reigned. Is the question "Where do you come from?" crude racism or just a harmless inquiry? Where does sexism begin: when someone grabs your bottom, or already when you use the generic masculine? One thing is clear: the boundaries of what is acceptable are currently being re-measured. Not everyone seems to understand this, some feel bullied. For them, what is currently lacking is primarily resilience and resistance. Wasn't Nietzsche right when he wrote: "What doesn't kill me makes me stronger!" On the other hand, the question arises: aren't we putting our vulnerability and ultimately our humanity at risk with this imperative? At the Philosophical Stammtisch, Barbara Bleisch and Wolfram Eilenberger discuss with the philosopher Svenja Flasspöhler, author of the recently published book "Sensibel", and the philosopher Dominique Künzle, who describes himself as a feminist, among other things.

The "Sternstunde Philosophie" draws a broad arc from socio-political topicality to the fundamental questions of philosophy: Who is responsible for what, what does human freedom consist of, what determines our meaning in life? The guests are personalities from science, culture, politics and business - voices that stimulate thought and reflect on and classify our current events. ______ Social Media Netiquette from SRF: ► https://www.srf.ch/social-netiquette #SRFCulture #SRFSternstunde #Philosophy #Sensibility #Generation SnowFlake #DarfIchDasNoch #SRF #Culture
