>>25427193I am always skeptical when it is about french people. But every time I have heard something about him, it always just seems like a more french and gay version of Stirner power analysis. That being said, I haven't engaged with him systematically. Does he offer much beyond that? If yes, where to start?
>>25427193You can't even name a single great thought of his, can you?
Higher education is a worse place because of his existence.

>>25427219Discipline and Punish.>>25427223I'm reading through my first Foucault book DnP and this shit is great.

>>25427219>it always just seems like a more french and gay version of Stirner power analysisIt is a more sophisticated analysis which uses history and linguistics to explain his findingsIt is a mesh of Nietzsche, Stirner, wittgenstein and just original foucaltian thought
Has anyone here read The Hermeneutics of the Subject?Foucault started engaging with Ancient philosophy late in his life. Wonder where he would have ended up hadn't he died of AIDS, he finally took an interest in ethics which he rarely discussed in his critical works or genealogies
His legacy tells me that he had nothing of value to say.

Jordan Peterson genuinely made idiots who where never truly interested in philosophy go crazy over perpetuating narratives about a person they don't understand or have never read to be able to understand.
>>25427439Yeah it's crazy the lies people tell about Peterson on this board.
