Frankfurter Lehre Von Patrick Bahners Mit einem Artikel im Feuilleton der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung wurde Jürgen Habermas im Jahr 1953 berühmt. Der Herausgeber Karl Korn hatte dem vierundzwanzigjährigen Bonner Studenten der Philosophie die Rezension der „Einführung in die Metaphysik“ von Martin Heidegger anvertraut, einer Freiburger Vorlesung aus dem Jahr 1935. Habermas setzte sich mit einem Satz auseinander, den Heidegger nicht gestrichen hatte, dem Bekenntnis zur „inneren Wahrheit und Größe“ der nationalsozialistischen „Bewegung“ – und er brachte Ungesagtes zur Sprache, wollte mit den Tabus der Nachkriegsöffentlichkeit erklären, dass ein solcher Satz vier Jahre nach der Gründung der Bundesrepublik hatte gedruckt werden können, als philosophische These. [...] Die deutsche Situation im Todesjahr von Jürgen Habermas stellt diese Frankfurter Lehre auf die Probe. „Das Wahre ist nicht für jedermann, sondern nur für den Starken.“ Was Heidegger 1935 sagte und 1953 drucken ließ, kopiert und verbreitet heute eine neue faschistische Intelligenz.

My favourite.

His gross taste and his disgusting manners are just as bad as his atrocious politics. I hope the midterms will be the beginning of the end of this regime. One must not lose hope!

I spoke about Adaptation Studies and the Environmental Humanities for our Open Imaginaries Project. The extraordinary kindness of hosts Prof. Heebon Park, Dr Minki Kim, Sungji Lee and the entire team overwhelmed me. A shout out to fellow keynote speaker & travelling companion Mark Thornton Burnett.

Had an excellent few days at the 2025 Multi Con-TEXT Graduate Conference at Chungbuk University, South Korea.

So push back.

'The truth is she did the right thing': The mystery of why Jane Austen's letters were destroyed – by her own sister Austen is one of the greatest writers in the English language – but relatively little is known about her. And that's in part because of an act that infuriates many to this day.

Anyhow, the distributed plagiarism of LLMs is so much more sophisticated than good old-fashioned copy & paste. Authorship is messy and dangerous. Data will keep us safe and clean. There ist no truth outside of data. Data is God.

Maybe a bad feeling, but also a great idea. As long as someone uses LLMs to produce text they can be thought of as 'responsible', right? No interest, no creativity. Apart from evolution. Wait, now it gets complicated.

If you start watching David Cronenberg's 1981 film Scanners tonight at 23:47 and 40 seconds that guy on the right's head will explode precisely at midnight.

I have no idea why you would want to do this. But you could.
