I love this Humanities Seed Bank episode and recommend it to people who do Chinese cultural+literary study: character retention+the classical/modern divide in Chinese make Heidegerrian etymological argumentation super tempting and common. humanitiesseedbank.substack.com/p/jd-connor-...

What I'd add is that Heidegger's specific methodology is also palingenetic, arguing the (intellectual) purity and superiority of a mythic past. This kind of thinking is not limited to, but is endemic in fascist cultures, a sort of "make Germany Greek again." It can play a similar role in China.
