Why does everyone have to hate on Heidegger for being a member of the Nazi Party? Like he joined them even before they did too much bad stuff... Every single secondary fucking source I read on Heidegger throws in little fucking zippy one liners dissing him. "Heidegger advocated for submission to the estranged phenomena in art, much like he submitted to the Fuhrer"... Like OK? he was 10x more important than your irrelevant ass...

>Drawing on new evidence, the author, Emmanuel Faye, argues fascist and racist ideas are so woven into the fabric of Heidegger’s theories that they no longer deserve to be called philosophy. As a result Mr. Faye declares, Heidegger’s works and the many fields built on them need to be re-examined lest they spread sinister ideas as dangerous to modern thought as “the Nazi movement was to the physical existence of the exterminated peoples.”

>influential American philosopher Richard Rorty, who once wrote in The New York Times, “You cannot read most of the important philosophers of recent times without taking Heidegger’s thought into account.” Mr. Rorty added, however, that “the smell of smoke from the crematories” will “linger on their pages.”

easy way to discredit him

No one hates on Heidegger for being a Nazi, the proof is he's taught at every neo-liberal university alongside guys like Marx.

People hate on Heidegger because he invented post modern relativism and deconstruction.

Does more to discredit themselves!

Wouldn't the ideology in universities be more adequately characterized in terms of progressivism and social justice?

>secondary sources on Heidegger
Basically worthless, if the secondary source isn’t somebody who is student of his or a student of his students. I doubt you can translate him, this is also a problem. It’s easier to just claim something and smear him than to really try to understand his work.
Wrong. You are misrepresenting his work like the existentialist did.

Shit like this just makes me want to become a Nazi

>the proof is he's taught at every neo-liberal university

Not out of choice, he's simply too important
