B G & E, section 5:
"The tartuffery, as stiff as it is virtuous, of old Kant as he lures us along the dialectical bypaths which lead, more correctly, mislead, to his """categorical imperative"" - this spectacle makes us smile, we who are fastidious and find no little amusement in observing the subtle tricks of old moralists and moral teachers.
Not to speak of that hocus-pocus of mathematical form in which, as if in iron, Spinoza encased and masked is philosophy.

>old Kant
>old "moralists"
>""""categorical imperative""""
>Spinoza casting a hocus-pocus of fallible logic
>this spectacle makes us smile

Can this man ever be stopped?

So why exactly does he think the categorical imperative is unsound?

[Anonymous No.17678581]

>I am reminded of old Kant, who helped himself to [erschlichen] the 'thing in itself' - another very ridiculous thing! - and was punished for this when the 'categorical imperative' crept into [beschlichen] his heart and made him stray back to 'God', 'soul', 'freedom', 'immortality', like a fox who strays back into his cage.
