*Hannah Arendt appears on screen* “…then I have just the thing for you! It’s called ‘forgiveness,’ and it’s the redemption from the twin predicaments of the irreversibility of our actions and the unforeseeability of their consequences!”

I've seen people say modern philosophy is mostly bad and others say it is mostly good, and so I bravely chart a third path: most modern philosophy is fine, I guess

I’m not really even this kind of philosopher, but people saying that something “begs the question” when they mean “raises the question” and referring to “points” as “valid”

Leider kann ich mit Horkheimer nicht helfen, aber die Überlegungen Günther Anders’ über „Apokalypse-Blindheit“ und die Grenzen der menschlichen Vorstellungskraft sind vielleicht auch relevant (sie sind in “Antiquiertheit des Menschen,” und besonders in “Die atomare Drohung” zu finden).

Outdoor gear for Denker und Dichter!
When Hubert Dreyfus visited Heidegger he saw a copy of Sartre’s being and nothingness and asked H if he had read it. And Heidegger slapped the book disdainfully and said “How can I even begin with this drivel?” So if that’s what he thought about SARTRE, I’d love to hear his take on Yarvin hahaha
Oh I don’t doubt at all that Yarvin that could see the Cathedral that way, and I’m also not trying to say that there aren’t reasons why Heidegger’s thought lends itself to these kinds of appropriations. But the man hated clumsy appropriations of his thought almost more than anything haha
I mean Yarvin can’t even read Greek! Heidegger wouldn’t think him qualified to even open his mouth
