History will remember Peter, not Chris

Bullshit, Christopher has proven far more popular and influential than his brother. Not that Peter is an idiot or anything.

>Christopher has proven far more popular and influential than his brother.

Which is why I said HISTORY will remember Peter.

Not in the least. Try Russell, Popper, Kuhn, Wittgenstein, Heidegger, Arendt, de Beauvoir, Lukacs, Benjamin, Braverman, Thompson, and a host of other scholars who published seminal monographs.

>>293412
And why would that be?

>>293420

Peters ideas are timeless.

Chris appealed to the "new atheist" collation, of which none of them read his books.

>is this the most influential man of the 20th century to bless the humanities and rhetoric on the human condition?

what about Sam Harris?

>>293443
Not sure about that. I wouldn't say either Hitchens brother was startlingly original. Difference being that Christopher sold a couple million copies of God is Not Great and I don't think Peter has encountered that level of success. I'd be surprised if either of them is paid much attention 100 years from now but if I had to bet money on who'd be brought up more often it'd be Christopher.

No, [spoiler]Chomsky[/spoiler] is

>>293418
>de Beauvoir, Lukacs, Benjamin

These people are only known within extreme leftist circles, nobody else knows who they are.

Thomas Sowell already destroyed Chomsky (RIP)

That he's edgy as fuck.

>>293375
look like camus
aka >>293498

YEP. he single handedly destroyed religion esp. christian apologetics.

Benjamin is the go to for liberal bourgeois who want to think Culture is Significant in literary and cultural criticism.

de Beauvoir is a standard existentialist and mostly read for liberal feminism.

Lukacs ought to be known by every 4th year literary criticism student, and every continental philosopher. Just like one must read Heidegger.

I.e only select people, like radical leftists.

>>293375
Dude cigarettes LMAO. Probably thought he was edgy and cool.

No, because he was more influential in the 21st century.
