Au revoir mon amie. I love you.

Spare yourself the time if you are making a video or writing a response to one of my posts because I am leaving. Au revoir.

Nothing, since I have never (and never will) read any of his books. I saw a few minutes of an interview someone on here posted and he seemed overly sentimental and poisoned by popular culture.

C.H. was the perfect non-systematic political thinker. Even his thoughts on religion were political. When the facts changed, he changed his mind. He was a concrete thinker and anti-philosophical in the good sense of not falling into traps and having a good bullshit detector (if you ignore his early Marxism, which he eventually grew out of, for the most part). He lived in Washington DC so he could be in on the action. He had a good memory. He was social and patched together the ideas of others, which is good for something like contemporary politics where it is impossible to go at it alone in your bedroom. He was principled and went after people like Bill Clinton and Henry Kissinger. He did the fieldwork of traveling to the countries he wrote about. He understood the threat of Islam and realized not every war is fought for economic motives. He admired the United States. He destroyed people on shows like Hannity & Colmes. What more do you want? So what if he didn't have the patience to read Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Wittgenstein, and Kant?
