the only way to understand foucault fully is to be a gay bdsm sub in an anonymous bareback bathhouse gangbang after spending 2 weeks marketing the evening by fliers outside every gay bar in a hundred mile radius and posting repeatedly in bugchaser forums. Then you will understand the mechanics of power he is referring to.

DIRECT ancestor is a little bold, and you really have to be more specific when using the term "liberal." It has meant very very different things throughout the last few hundred years, from pre-Foucault, Foucault, to today.

People who think Foucault isn't obscure are stupid tryhard pseuds.

Foucault even admits to overwriting to obscure his meaning.

>Searle claims Foucault told him: “In France, you gotta have ten percent incomprehensible, otherwise people won’t think it’s deep–they won’t think you’re a profound thinker.” When Searle later asked Pierre Bourdieu if he thought this was true, Bourdieu insisted it was much worse than ten percent.
>With Derrida, you can hardly misread him, because he’s so obscure. Every time you say, “He says so and so,” he always says, “You misunderstood me.” But if you try to figure out the correct interpretation, then that’s not so easy. I once said this to Michel Foucault, who was more hostile to Derrida even than I am, and Foucault said that Derrida practiced the method of obscurantisme terroriste (terrorism of obscurantism). We were speaking French. And I said, “What the hell do you mean by that?” And he said, “He writes so obscurely you can’t tell what he’s saying, that’s the obscurantism part, and then when you criticize him, he can always say, ‘You didn’t understand me; you’re an idiot.’ That’s the terrorism part.” And I like that. So I wrote an article about Derrida. I asked Michel if it was OK if I quoted that passage, and he said yes.
