On the Marxist Critique of Heidegger
(carlosgarrido.substack.com)
Other philosophy communities have only interpreted the world in various ways. The point, however, is to change it. [ x ]

These recent writings on the stakes of rereading Heidegger are coming from the lib side too, if you need reassurance. One of these articles specifically calls out Donald Trump and Viktor Orban. If someone else wants to write about this instead of spamming Foucault emotes, they have a right to complain. Otherwise, go argue with Carlos directly.
I honestly don’t know what you’re saying, but I have no problem with the article. I just don’t think he should be platformed as long as he promotes certain reactionary views.
I could write out some of the criticisms I have of patsoc stuff and some of the more lib interpretations of this (going straight from talking about Hannah Arendt's totalitarianism shit to fingering Orban and Trump as being the figureheads of fascism) and how they get close and miss the point to make it more clear what I mean. I'm excited more people are writing about this, but I'm a bit disappointed with some of the response articles.
