Objectivity and stability derive solely from the categories; the realm of
things in themselves is without categories; yet it is something for itself
and for ref ection. The only idea we can form of this realm is like that of
the iron king in the fairy tale whom a human self-consciousness permeates
with the veins of objectivity so that he can stand erect. But then formal
transcendental idealism sucks these veins out of the king so that the
upright shape collapses and becomes something in between form and
lump, repulsive to look at. For the cognition of nature, without the veins
injected into nature by self-consciousness, there remains nothing but
sensation. In this way, then, the objectivity of the categories in experience
and the necessity of these relations become once more something
contingent and subjective

my brother hated it.
In other words: for Hegelians to claim to be in a position to “incorporate” the critiques and move forward is exactly what people distrust about Hegel."
