What the fuck did he know about the world? What was his problem?

Anything worth knowing can be intuited or derived from pure introspection.

Untrue, untrue.

why do 90 IQ indians insist on pushing naked dogmatism through vague philosophical statements that don't mean anything?
>>
>>25318244
Unlike the rat race chaser grindset wagie normalfags trying to get by that comprise 90% of humanity, Schopenhauer didn't need to cope and delude himself in order to survive and suffered no pressure keeping him from seeing things as they are

Hedgehogs can relax their quills and huddle for warmth

When you aren't just trying to survive you can worry about those kinds of things. It doesn't make him wrong. If anything it's an argument in his favor that he came to those conclusions while living a cushy life.

Or maybe having no actual activity in life leads to overall worse mental health

Where is he wrong, though?

It has been demonstrated time and again that the "advice" of Schopenhauer on how to lead life is a sure way to induce disorders, but idiots will claim it's genius and that anyone referring to experimental psychiatry against it is some sort of secret Jew, Anglo, etc.

Based Schopenhauer.

Avoiding 'work' is the only way to accomplish anything at all. It is practically the only calling left to us.

You say it like it's a bad thing.

How, if he led this lifestyle and ended up all depressed, died a virgin, was alone and thought everything was shit. He would probably have been happier as a baker.
>>
>he was broke, of course his life sucked
>he was rich, he can't talk about life sucking
>>
>>25319491
He was neither depressed, nor a virgin, nor did he 'think everything was shit'. Schopenhauer was among the happiest of men and knew that he was fortunate, that was your original point but you keep changing the story.
>>
>>25318244
his entire philosophy is explaining why this is the case

You hate him the more you read him.
Book 1 of Vol 1 is a great intro to basic platonism, but his monotheist/Islamic conception of Will makes it all incoherent and pointless. You can't derive a system from an arbitrary omnipotent God, there cannot be a logic to its effects.

Hi kike. Where are the longitudinal studies evaluating the long-term effects of regularly inserting SSRIs, Xanax, or Prozac into your body?
