The Metaphysical Desires of René Girard with Johnathan Bi

Johnathan Bi is a founder and independent scholar working on René Girard. Johnathan just published a professionally-produced YouTube series on Girard, in collaboration with David Perell. We discuss the concept of metaphysical desire, how to engineer social environments for productive mimesis, whether Girard can be separated from Christianity (Johnathan thinks he can), and the strategy behind Johnathan's new lecture series on YouTube.
