You crack open De Grammatologie. As your hungry eyes lap up word after blasphemous word, it all becomes clear to
you: you come to understand the true nature of deconstruction, and what Derrida was trying to accomplish all these years, preparing the people of
the West for the New Age... it all makes sense to you now.

You step back, smiling, from the text. There's no need to be afraid, you
realize, for neither yourself nor the West are in any danger. It's all
right. It all makes sense. And when you raise your hands to your face and slowly
push the fingernails of your first and middle fingers into each eye, digging the
soft, bloody tissue out and dragging it down your cheeks in ropy smears... why,
that's all right, too.

It's the most natural thing in the world.

All this scaremongering over someone who was just trying to introduce some slightly new ideas - not even that new really. Even if you take the more political of his material, like the concept of phallogocentrism, I don't see why people get so insane over it. It's not even like a value judgment, just a fact. You can see the playing out of phallocentrism in the Greeks - I'd go so far as to call it a defining characteristic.

Can there be any doubt that Derrida was a psychic vampire, and we should thank the Catholic Church's special ops teams for putting him down in 2004?

Film theory majors and /lit/ pseuds shouldn't be allowed near continental texts until they've done an undergrad degree in philosophy.
