as a warning to HN users unfamiliar with the author, this article should probably be taken with a grain of salt -- the guy is known to be somewhat of a jester within that very same niche philosophical community he talks about. think of him as the tai lopez of french theory internet enthusiasts
he's built a reputation basically making memes & posting hot takes on twitter for retweets, and harnessed a sort of following among people who mostly get their knowledge of philosophy through memes and fb groups. the article probably reflects more of a marketing lesson than anything else
you can judge that based on his very content: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmdWfFrevzI; he gives a very generalized account of the eternal return (one of the central concepts in D&G's, klossowski's and nietzsche's philosophy) which probably wouldn't get a passing grade in an undergrad philosophy course
