What is alienation and self-consciousness? /the two modern mind's struggle

n this video essay, the creator delves into the philosophical concepts of alienation and self-consciousness, examining how these ideas impact our modern experience. Starting with a brief overview of Hegel’s theory of self-consciousness and Marx’s notion of alienation, the video explains how individuals often become disconnected from their sense of self, their labor, and their social environment. The video transitions into discussing how alienation manifests in the digital age — through social media, work culture, and consumerism — leading to an increased sense of existential isolation. It offers insights into how our constant awareness of how others perceive us intensifies self-consciousness, sometimes trapping us in a cycle of performative behavior and anxiety.
