I remember reading Lyotard on Heidegger and having my mind changed on this question. The highest thought not raising the lowest and the lowest not canceling the highest...

The feeling of cancellation, sometimes, though, if not the reality. Which is maybe what Lyotard was inoculating against the first place?
