Hsu takes secret pleasure in making philosophical texts impossible to understand. Whether it's to make himself look smart or just plain ignorance and lack of basic intellectual integrity, I don't know. He takes special care to take the most repulsive and intellectually horrifying logical paths to reach absurd conclusions. He then relies on asking loaded questions to preclude the possibility of counterargument. Hsu's class is the opposite of an honest open forum where true, collective philosophical inquiry would be possible. The best way to describe it is intellectual tyranny.
