Someone like most media types now, not smart but "clever" enough to do the bidding of the cathedral discourses, not genuinely intellectually curious, but clever enough to label this or that person "racist" but above that "antisemitic!" Oh God forbid we actually study these
Diverse array of namedropped philosophers, they have a few character flaws, so let's burn everything before the 1960s right? Let's just totally ignore the contexts and ideas of their main corpus of work? Oh yes..I get it..this outrage is only selective though, because these

They are so secure in their worldview that much wiser and better men (and even women listed) such as themselves can just carelessly be discredited because they don't conform to their vile and spirit-killing standards of what institutes official "right side of history" ideology.
