No. The most famous name, and the longest tenured Philosophy prof at
UC Berkeley, Prof. Hubert Dreyfus, and the Chair of the Philosophy
Department at Harvard, Prof. Sean Dorrance Kelley, are staunch
Heideggerians. Like many in the West, they prescribe to a line of
thought that not just permits, but begs for brainwashing ideology to
take over the population or masses. I heard them speak last week and
was quite astonished by what I heard(and also by what I have read by
the two of them). "We" the good citizens are too busy going after Leo
Strauss and Carl Schmitt, who in fact try to warn us of impending
"nihilism".
