We start section 120 and begin to learn about the leap, which is “the leaping into a preparedness for the belonging to the event.” The there where the gods come and go is manifested by the leap. Through the leap we are appropriated by beyng as the ruth of beings. We then discuss how thought…

We continue through section 119, reading about the transition to the leap, time as the original unity of the self-clearing and self-concealing, and the dislodging of humans out of the lack of a sense of plight. Further discussion is had of how liberals are story-driven LLMs, how timeless causal connections are the hallmark of liberal…

We start section 119 of Contributions to Philosophy (of the Event) and read about preparing for the leap by asking about the question of beyng and the objectification of beings in the abandonment by being. We then go on to discuss how sanctuary cities, international law, and the communist compulsion for control are projections of…

We read section 118 in part 4 (The Leap). Herein we learn of the extreme projection of the essence of beyng whereby we come to ourselves for the first time, as well as the ground of the decision regarding the direction and range of the projection. We use these ideas to discuss what it means…

In section 117 (The Leap) we read about the decisionary space of the clearing/concealing, the uniqueness of death as the unusualness of beyng, and the “death of a god” as “the most frightful jubilation.” In relating all this to the liberal/post-liberal transition, we discover the conceptual deceptions that underlie the basic assertions of the historical…

We conclude Part 3 of the book (The Interplay) and head into Part 4 (The Leap). We read about the necessity of distinction and uniqueness, aka hierarchy, that is necessary to open up being, the history of being that has led up to the need for the leap into beyng, and the disposition of diffidence…

In subsections 21 and 22 of section 101 we read of the “scions and consequences of Platonism,” aka the ideological lineage of liberalism, as theories that adopt values, meanings, ideas and ideals; self-evident ways of questioning; and “life-philosophy” that results in “extreme confusion raised to a principle (aka transcendence).” We then discuss some post-liberal approaches…

Continuing through section 110, we read of the history of idealism coming down from Plato, which Heidegger claims is in fact a history of realism in which the subject is transcendent and the truth of being is unquestioned. From here we discuss some of the symptoms and manifestations of the liberal addiction to transcendence in…
