head an argument by this guy mentioned in Nihil Unbound which sounded really retarded, but it may have been Brassier missing the point, not sure.

it was something against Kant, it's been a while so i forgot what exactly, something about the past existing

What did you think of Brassier? I found the pdf for this books a few days ago while looking for engagements with Foucault and Nietzsche...
That he starts out with a Ligotti quote made me think he is a /lit/izen at first

Zizek and Ligotti approve.
His other book, Ego, start with that.

it's been a while since i read it, i thought it was a refreshing view of modern scientific materialism in a truly nihilistic way, without trying to sneak in meaning without acknowledging it like most authors

some of his arguments sounded unsound or weird, but it may have been me being a brainlet

i think it's a good balance towards other authors that want to have the materialist cake and then add some bullshit magical word that allows them to keep all the meaning of pre-modernity while pretending to have truly overcome the challenges of modernity
