Hilter is Told About the Rationalists in Berlin
| 00:00 - 00:03 | The Rationalists have been storming the city | 
| 00:04 - 00:05 | They have been giving talks in several locations | 
| 00:05 - 00:07 | here, and here. | 
| 00:08 - 00:12 | Promoting their wretched Enlightenment and scientistic agenda | 
| 00:12 - 00:15 | At the moment, they are running a "summer school" here | 
| 00:17 - 00:19 | Well, no matter | 
| 00:19 - 00:21 | Steiner assured me he's organizing a counter-event | 
| 00:24 - 00:26 | My Fuhrer... | 
| 00:27 - 00:28 | Steiner... | 
| 00:31 - 00:33 | Steiner's conference has been cancelled | 
| 00:34 - 00:36 | Harman, Gabriel and Deepak Chopra turned him down | 
| 00:53 - 00:58 | I want only the artists: Keitel, Jodl, Krebs, and Burgdorf. | 
| 01:13 - 01:15 | That's unacceptable! | 
| 01:15 - 01:17 | That's fucking unacceptable! | 
| 01:18 - 01:23 | I clearly told Steiner we needed metaphysical extravaganza! | 
| 01:25 - 01:28 | Now Rationalism will become a thing! | 
| 01:29 - 01:31 | People will ask for conceptual clarity! | 
| 01:31 - 01:34 | Those logic-mongers are more rigorous than the SS! | 
| 01:34 - 01:37 | And to think they call me a Nazi | 
| 01:37 - 01:40 | while these people go around defending Enlightenment and Universalism | 
| 01:40 - 01:42 | My Führer, Universalism isn't necessarily totalitarian | 
| 01:42 - 01:46 | My ass it isn't! They are a bunch of colonialists, fascist technophiles | 
| 01:46 - 01:48 | My Führer, that's very uncharitable reading. | 
| 01:48 - 01:52 | They will have people read Sellars and Brandom! | 
| 01:53 - 01:54 | I don't understand them! | 
| 01:56 - 01:58 | I have spent 6 months reading nothing but ONE chapter of Laruelle | 
| 01:58 - 02:03 | wading through fucking incomprehensible jargon and outrageously cryptic french neologisms | 
| 02:04 - 02:08 | so I had to learn French to appreciate him | 
| 02:08 - 02:13 | now people will ask me to explain what it all means | 
| 02:14 - 02:16 | and I have no fucking clue whatsoever! | 
| 02:17 - 02:21 | there isn't even some amusing Zizekian bit in it, like a praise of Stalin! | 
| 02:27 - 02:29 | I never wanted to be an academic | 
| 02:30 - 02:34 | I'm totally self-taught, I know which theorists are important | 
| 02:34 - 02:36 | those teaching at the European Graduate School! | 
| 02:41 - 02:42 | Filthy inferentialists | 
| 02:43 - 02:47 | They will bang on with their Science and Reason and ignore the value of emotions | 
| 02:48 - 02:53 | Heidegger is the only philosophy needed by the German people | 
| 02:54 - 02:56 | Now they'll bore us with numbers | 
| 02:56 - 02:59 | They'll demand we learn to handle bloody numbers | 
| 03:00 - 03:02 | they'll hold us epistemically accountable until we spit blood | 
| 03:04 - 03:07 | Don't worry, I'll teach you category theory | 
| 03:14 - 03:16 | Our postmodern times are truly over | 
| 03:19 - 03:23 | Our only hope is to retrench in the art world | 
| 03:25 - 03:26 | It sucks | 
| 03:31 - 03:33 | Our war to Reason, it is lost | 
| 03:40 - 03:46 | But gentleman, if you think I'm gonna start reading Brandom you are seriously mistaken | 
| 03:46 - 03:49 | I'd rather blow my fucking brains out | 
| 03:53 - 03:56 | You, you better start with Sellars |
