yes, yes, yer essentialising, "morality is nothing moral", ...and therefore
revulsion at elite killers and torture is nothing authentic, just immature
ressentiment, ...i know well enuf yer inane philosophical glibness, anthony.
but when heid spoke up after the lifting of totalitarian thot control (tudor
didn't intorduce this complication) to the effect that the only thing wrong
with the holocaust was its mechanization that's proof (for me, tho obviously
not for you) of his own thorogoing inauthenticity.


   Bob,

   The inauthenticity was in the question, and it was a malicious one:
   it tried to catch not only the man, but his thinking. And he saved that,
   by giving much bigger disasters back, like food production, which
   kills earth and sky alike, and so the 'habitat' of all those existing.

   So Heidegger's question back is: why don't you see yourself this 
   immoralist robbing away of earth and sky? I have a way of dealing
   with it, that is my thinking of Being. But this is precisely what 
   you want to get rid of, by asking ME, of all, whether i find Auschwitz
   criminal. That's an insult by itself. 
   

   Heidegger's word can, however, like any other, be misused for spoiled
   purposes. Let there be no misunderstanding how Heidegger thought of
   killing and abuse.

   regards
   rene











ever consider the law, anthony?
