It always amuses me when people throw a fit when they can't understand technical philosophy written by experts, for experts. You never see someone posting an excerpt from a physics journal and being like "ugh so inaccessible!!!"
Like, I'd get maybe if she wrote this in a NYT opinion piece– but this was written an obscure book you'd have to go out of your way to find.
BTW, this is not that hard to comprehend if you're familiar with continental philosophy, go figure!
Sokal and Bricmont have debunked your amusement eons ago.
The irony is that the experts don't understand it half the time either.
