The bizarre Nazi book craze

[Kai Frederik Lorentzen]

First of all, my answer to you was ironic.

Plus: Carl Schmitt who met Heidegger during the 1930s definitely didn't 
consider him to be a nihilist.
The only ones who did were the official Nazi philosophers around Alfred 
Baeumler.

So, the opposition 'good citizens' + Schmitt + Strauss vs. Heidegger + 
Dreyfus + Kelley doesn't make
any sense.
