Heidegger

Nazi Foundations in Heidegger’s Work
Emmanuel Faye
Paris X–Nanterre
Translated by Alexis Watson and Richard J. Golsan.

A new piece by Heidegger (previously unpublished ) has been issued.
I was able to access it through *Muse* via my university, which has an
account with them.

In this new material by the Philosopher of Nazism, he apparently refers to
the Jews and others whom his pals murdered in the camps as - not being dead -
because they were not really living beings in the first place.

Faye reports that Heidegger: *…barely lingers on the conditions of the
extermination of the victims. What he supports, in an extremely obscure and
cloudy fashion, is that “man can die if and only if Being itself appropriates the
essence of man into the essence of the Being beginning with the truth of his
essence.”

Queue the Apologists…

Faye then introduces other recent revelations concerning Heidegger’ hatred
of the Jewish people.

There is a lot more equally horrific racialist stuff in the article, but I
do not want to risk abusing the copyright in any way. Those interested in
reading this stuff, which rips away the mask of the dégagé academician from
this evil man’s face to reveal the stunted anti-human bastard beneath also
identifies proto-nazism and race in Being and Time.

Jud
