God Is Dead & Other Things You’re Quoting Wrong

A funny crash course in Freud, Nietzsche and the people who argued with them

In Level 1, Freud was the main character. This time, he mostly stays home. Level 2 belongs to the people who came after him: his students, his rivals, and the ones who took his ideas somewhere he’d never have gone, or would have hated.

Cover of God Is Dead & Other Things You’re Quoting Wrong: a comic of Luiza on a red sofa between Freud and Schopenhauer, with the house of the mind behind them
The psychoanalysts

Freud’s former favourite, a woman who analysed toddlers with a box of toys, a paediatrician on a bicycle, a Frenchman in a fur coat, and a few women Freud badly underestimated, who answered him back.

The philosophers

They get tougher too. Hegel, Camus, Beauvoir, the Stoics, and a Slovenian who can’t watch a film without explaining what it says about capitalism.

Same rules

A question you’ve actually asked yourself. Two guests who mostly disagree. At least one thing you’ve been quoting wrong. And still not therapy.
