“Etwas Rätselhaftes, daß etwas ist als das, was es zugleich nicht ist.”
Martin Heidegger _Platon:Sophistes_ GA19:580

“Somewhat perplexing that something is as that which, at the same time,
it is not.”
Martin Heidegger _Platon:Sophistes_
Jud:
Another piece of unsophisticated, vacuous, sibylline rubbish by a
self-appointed con-man who cravenly professed a special spiritual, philosophical and
political enlightenment. [see mental home episode and teaching ban.]
Signifying nothing, but designed to impress, such was the nature of this
metaphysical Nazi necromancer, with his deliberate avoidance of ontological specificity
contrived to sound wise, but saying and meaning absolutely nothing.

It is the well known and easily spotted [for some] modus operandi
characteristic of false prophets, shamans, and the politically cynical, to say
something Delphic and allow the hermeneutic hoi polloi or fleeceable fall-guy to
struggle with or be impressed by the apparently shrouded significance.

The trick, when confronted with such utter crap, is to search for the words
which have been deliberately and craftily omitted.

Those incapable of distinguishing the missing words are precisely those
stooges that the creep is targeting. His hero Hitler used precisely the same
verbal and textual trickery to great effect with the urban boneheads of Berlin
and the dozy yokels of the Heimat.

Let us be charitable in this instance and refer to such inadequates who find
such drivel, *somewhat perplexing,* not simply as utter idiots, but rather
as members of that section of the philosophical community who are somewhat
lacking in the *critical interpretation* department.

Regards,

Jud
