Trying to quote Nietzsche in German is not an advisable strategy if you don't know German, dear hacks everywhere ("das Mann" does not exist).

- pervycreeper 10y ago>"das Mann" that's a bit of jargon from a different German philosopher (Heidegger). IMO, that sentence is trying to smear Theil as a Nazi, since Heidegger was one and some of Nietzsche's concepts were reappropriated by them.
- dhoe 10y agoI've thought about that too, but if it was referencing Heidegger it should be "das Man" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heideggerian_terminology#.27The_One.27_.2F_.27the_They.27 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heideggerian_terminology#.27Th...), not "das Mann".
