"universal grammar" has yet to be scientifically proven.

That's okay. Linguistics is a pseudo-science anyway.

He's not Foucault.

>Theorises universal linguistic properties
>uses standard rhetorical condescending laughs and tones to give his anti-war activist mentality credit.

>>6543789
He's a linguist.

Hard mode: if you claim he supported something terrible, you have to back it up with quotes and citations

>>6543800

Foucault is a fag, he almost killed himself at the ENS. He is a disgrace to France, everytime I hear of him I feel ashamed for being French.He is even worsz than Jean-Paul "look how ugly I am" Sartre.
Biopower my ass ! It's due to such faggorty that the vast majority of people think philosophy is shit. He should have kept on being pouned by big nigger dicks and STFU.

Fairly good memeposting. I was entertained and considered replying with some memeposts of my own, but I'm much too tired. I'm off to bed. I wish you pleasant dreams. You've earned them.

The fact that children never make certain mistakes is evidence that there are constraints on what is a possible language (Universal Grammar). If these constraints are not a consequence of the nature of the brain, then what are they?

Anarchist, not Marxist.

for some reason i can't post the links, 4chan thinks its spam, but just do a google search for foucault's quote from a collection of essays in Power/Knowledge "i believe that the problem does not consist in drawing the line between that in a discourse" and read some of the first results, there's even one on faulkner and one that explains foucault's critique of ideology.

warning, metaphysics ahead:

-hegel

"In the same way too, by determining the relation which a philosophical work professes to have to other treatises on the same subject, an extraneous interest is introduced, and obscurity is thrown over the point at issue in the knowledge of the truth. The more the ordinary mind takes the opposition between true and false to be fixed, the more is it accustomed to expect either agreement or contradiction with a given philosophical system, and only to see reason for the one or the other in any explanatory statement concerning such a system. It does not conceive the diversity of philosophical systems as the progressive evolution of truth; rather, it sees only contradiction in that variety. The bud disappears when the blossom breaks through, and we might say that the former is refuted by the latter; in the same way when the fruit comes, the blossom may be explained to be a false form of the plant’s existence, for the fruit appears as its true nature in place of the blossom. These stages are not merely differentiated; they supplant one another as being incompatible with one another. But the ceaseless activity of their own inherent nature makes them at the same time moments of an organic unity, where they not merely do not contradict one another, but where one is as necessary as the other; and this equal necessity of all moments constitutes alone and thereby the life of the whole. But contradiction as between philosophical systems is not wont to be conceived in this way; on the other hand, the mind perceiving the contradiction does not commonly know how to relieve it or keep it free from its one-sidedness, and to recognise in what seems conflicting and inherently antagonistic the presence of mutually necessary moments."

remember our debate, bitch boy?

i like this. is it supposed to be a parody of a french nationalist?

>>6544005

Anarcho-Syndicalist. Get it right

>>6545705
Haha it's not even a parody since I am actually French, but I don't really like Foucault.
In a less memeish and aggressive tone I meant that his concept are not crucial for philosophy.
To me he is the definition of the "self-masturbating" intellectual.
