Anyone who bought into the ideology of Nazism, as Martin Heidegger as a member of the Party must have, deserves condemnation on that account, and it is appropriate to question whether such intellectual and moral flaws permeate his work.

But since you register no such charge, you merely inject his Nazism as a factlet, there is no point in responding.

Can you elaborate - what do you know intellectual and moral flaws permeating his work?

I didn't realize you required a doctoral dissertation on the connection between Heidegger's love of Nazism and his philosophy. And since you identified yourself as a "Heidegger partisan," why on earth would you require any explanation? Any such partisan would have to have read Heidegger's easily obtainable public lecture, where he tied up his own philosophy, the pre-Socratics, and Nazism.
