I wish Rorty were here to defend himself. But I will be one who will. I thank you for the opportunity to do this even badly. (As Chesterton said: if it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing badly.)

But it will take a much longer time and effort to do this and I will do so in one of my own essays on Medium. Suffice it to say here that I disagree with your own language game regarding American pragmatism which I conclude is very much in line with Continental existential phenomenology, at least in my own language game which does have a theory of knowledge and truth through our ability to imagine.
