Just got commissioned to do a longform piece (first time with this pub, which will 'out' me somewhat...stay tuned) on the rise of secular reincarnations of religious concepts. Any thoughts or references appreciated.https://twitter.com/antoniogm/status/1026909489000153088 …

He’s noted for saying that all modern political concepts are secularized theological concepts. Fairly influential with the Straussians and also Frankfurt School. Also a Nazi. But so was Heidegger.
