Right, and "actual philosophers" like Sartre and Heidegger _never_ did that. Ever.

"Being and Nothingness" and "Being and Time" are both short enough to fit into a couple tweets, right?

Thanks for reminding me that I left out their unjustified sense of significance and self-importance, thinking that their sophomoric ramblings are somehow comparable to Sartre's or Heidegger's writings.

I mean, I see the parallels. Heidegger was a Nazi, similar to how LWers are racist/eugenicists/Zionists.
