Heidegger’s philosophy was debated within the Frankfurt Circle debating group

Evidence

It was also a reply to the Frankfurt Discussion' (as Adorno called it), at which Kurt Riezler defended Heidegger. Riezler, like Adorno, belonged to the so-called Circle’ (Kränzchen), a Frankfurt debating group of which Tillich, Horkheimer, Pollock, Mannheim, Adolph Löwe and Carl Mennicke were also members. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 386
