Thank you for the encouragement! I'll be taking a course this semester on Foucault and Habermas, hopefully I'll have some time to post my reflections on here and address those issues.

In response to the rest of the comment: Foucault advocates for an anti-normative politics, which is essentially a radical distancing from politics. Also, he refuses to engage in any type of classical theorization. Meaning, he does not have a vision of a future society, he claims we address specific problems without pre-defined notions of "the good", "the just", "the truth" etc. Possibilities are opened up through praxis, so when we engage in a struggle, we do not do it in the name of a clearly defined future, but in order to open up new possibilities that were unconceivable before. Foucault argues that positing a "better system" is a way of being part of/supporting the existing system.
