why do so many of you have hobbes' leviathan
I loved his work with Calvin
important canonical text anyone who went to college read unless they just went for job training to be an electrician or whatever but i mean anyone with a liberal arts education
>>25508674In which country? No one in the US reads Hobbes unless they're studying politics.
I remember reading Hobbes when I was 14 and thought it was a satirical text because I could not grasp why in god's name anyone ever would argue for aynthing like that.Fun times.
>>25508849>No one in the US reads Hobbes unless they're studying politicsI don't believe this for a second.
>>25508849>No one in the US reads Hobbes unless they're studying politics.Had to read it for AP European History and IB Philosophy in higschool. Read it again for Intro to Political Philosophy and Western Civ (history course) in University. Everyone who isn't a mouthbreather reads it.
>>25508849>No one in the US reads HobbesFucking grim state of whatever college you went to.
>>25509032Reading Hobbes won’t make you money. American colleges are designed to set you up to join the workforce and make MONEY, not read some old faggot British philosophers.
>>25508585Wouldn't it be funny if he were named Hogg instead? Hogg's Leviathan?
>>25509120no they’re designed to take your money kekekekekeke
>>25509136You'd love that, Nick Land.
>>25508963Your irony meter is broken
>>25509136Hogg was a good book, I think you would love it ;^)
>>25508849What about historychads like myself?
>>25509740Why do so many of you have unkempt filthy fucking nails?
>>25509120I went to an American university and read Hobbes. You just went to crap university.
>>25508969>>25509032i went to a well-regarded university and would not have been assigned hobbes if i hadn't chosen to take political philosophy. i don't exactly recall what the relevant general degree requirements were because i was majoring in philosophy anyway, but i'm pretty sure i could have avoided it if i were studying something else.
>>25508849You're on 4chan with a bunch of chud larpers who think they are influencing world politics with every shitpost
>>25509759What was your degree and how was Leviathan relevant to it?
>>25510726He’s probably some woketard who got a bullshit degree in english or gender studies
>>25508585I'm a summoner, Leviathan has a pretty good ultimate move.
>>25511649Is this a pokeymans reference or something
>>25509748Excuse me, i cut mine. And why are you as a man looking at another man's hands? You want a reacharound or something, faggot?
>>25511673You/he literally posted a picture that only includes a book and his pasty goblinoid hand complete with shaggy, overgrown white fingernails with a splotch of what (I can only reasonably assume) is stinky doo-doo poopy from his own prodigious, festering asshole. I mean, just look at the background... he clearly lives in filth and squalor. It's not that big of a stretch to assume that he's a pig. "A picture is worth a thousand words" as they say.
>>25511673>You want a reacharound or somethingI mean, sure! What’s your location?
>>25511673I'll reacharound your neck with a fucking knife to slash your fucking throat open and watch you bleed to death in your own blood, piss and shit MOTHERFUCKER.
