Martin Heidegger, the learned imbecile who said that of course the Holocaust was bad, but so is mechanized agriculture.

LOL !! Amusing edito, but in truth Heidegger is in "good company" since this hatred of progress is quite widespread among philosophers, Jean-Jacques Rousseau being another familiar example. I'm pretty much with Richard Feynman on this score, one is best off simply paying them no mind. Philosophy not being measurable by any yardstick nor testable by any reproducible experiment can allow just about any gibberish to be proffered as critical thinking, and by relativism there exist no quacks.
