      i can address this as well. i do not believe that all ideas may be easily Decoupled from the people who birth them. and the more an idea or complex of ideas relates to the manner in which a person might live, the less an author may be written off as deadhttps://twitter.com/SamoBurja/status/1442443652215750656?s=19 …

      Why do twitter personalities talk so much about their private life? I assume people care mostly about ideas and am still surprised when they start asking for more in public forums.

      for example epicureanism is not dry treatises about the avoidance of pain. epicureanism is the ecstasy of Epicurus on his deathbed.https://twitter.com/eigenrobot/status/1056020935738765312?s=19 …

      "On his deathbed [Epicurus] found time to think of his friends: 'I write to you on this happy day which is the last of my life . . . [my] pains have reached the extreme point, but there is marshaled against them the delight of my mind in thinking over our talks together.'"

      we can read emile yes. but can we read it without remembering that that author advising us on the rearing of children literally abandoned each of his own to the tender mercies of 18th century orphanages? i am not able myselfhttps://twitter.com/eigenrobot/status/1430624554091614208?s=19 …

      even when a creator's life is wholly independent of his creation's "validity" we may learn from his example

      Fritz Haber's methods of fixing nitrogen and killing men would have worked no matter who devised them, but his work on chlorine gas may have caused his first wife and his daughter to take their own lives 30 years apart, the latter after devoting herself to finding an antidote

      the reason that Durant has influenced me beyond any other author is in the way he showed the history of peoples and of ideas is the history of People great and small Voltaire and Louis XIV pressed themselves across their ages not just by arms or pen but raw force of personality

      America would not exist without the towering example of Washington's public virtue. This is not an "idea" in the dry analytic sense but it is nevertheless an incorporeal Spirit that animates men and shapes their hearts. I reject any notion of philosophy that dismisses examplars

      so yes, please let us live our lives together here in one another's society as epicurus would have it, not just as interlocutors but as friends.
