I'm studying Philosophy on university. Two of my teachers are or were leftist, Sartre, which I want to study, was a leftist, some other authors I look up to were leftists and some of my intelligent classmates seems to be leftists as well. Should I just become leftist as well? Is leaning to the left-wing necessary in order to succeed at humanities?

False dichotomy thoe

>>83287377
>studying philosophy
You'll appreciate a bit of Hobbesian fascist philosophy then. Let your leftist peers jerk each other off all they want, there's no arguing with Leviathan.
>>
>>83287377
Leaning to the left is necessary to succeed in the contemporary; leaning to the right is necessary to succeed in that which is temporal
>>
>>83287377
Colleges are inherently leftist and biased. Just study as much philosophy as you can and come to your own conclusion on which ideology makes more sense.
>>
>paying to study philosophy

Retards can be left or right, anon.
>>
>>83287377
You don't have to become a leftist to study philosophy in the same way you don't have to grow long hair to listen to heavy metal. It's just an associated tendency. Pick your politics based on what makes sense to you. Also consider that people who are extremely competent in one area can be extremely incompetent in another area. For example, Noam Chomsky is a renowned linguist, with dogshit politics. Likewise, Ben Carson is a genius level brain surgeon, who's also politically retarded. So listen to them when it comes to philosophy, but be skeptical about their politics and their cookie recipes because they're not experts on either of those areas.

Most leftists love intellectual masturbation and want to feel superior and enlightened. You don't need to change your views to fit into a specific box. J seek good knowledge, read people you agree and the ones disagree with, question stuff and always remember that colleges have a leftist agenda.

>Is leaning to the left-wing necessary in order to succeed at humanities?
Nope, there are many great right-wing authors on such subjects, people like Oswald Spengler, Marcea Eliade, Nietzsche and Ernst Junger.

Don't you fear wasting your time?

Holy fuck, I'm the darkest dumb gorilla nigger on this board.

>>83287377
likely have to carve a niche with the "rebel intellectuals" like dark academia type shit like mencius moldbug and edward dutton style of people, very stupid people though. but if right wing becomes mainstream you may have a place in official circles if say the world takes a fascist turn.
>>
>>83287377
Yes, smart people are all leftists. Right wingers are genuinely 60 iq subhumans.
>>
>>83287377
Kek Yes, you are smart and educated if you agree and follow what they say as always true anon.

Its all folly, the only philosophy that's actually worth anything is in The Bible

>supports importing infinity niggers, thinks you can have the Scandinavian model without Scandinavian people
>Why yes, my IQ is at least 420
>>
>>83288686
Dont forget the teachers are ignorant, biased and indoctrinated, so its not good to disagree with them because they have personal bias and dictatoria power over your grades, they wont accept critical thinking, so just pretend to agree with them in tests and everything for a smooth sailing with the fools, easy easy.

My money's on Big Siege. He's got the weight advantage and a steaper slope to his frontal armor.

>Sartre
Well, it certainly takes a lot of mental effort to gaslight yourself into thinking Sartre was worth anything.

Why do you think intellectuals are more leftist?
>>
modern intellectuals: more leftist for sure, because they will blackball you for not believing the party line.
>achievements: next to nothing

historical intellectuals: a handful of leftists as you'd expect to see in a normal distribution.
>achievements: the entire modern world

which is better? hmm.
>>
>>83287377
I don't consider anyone this fay an age that is a zoomer leftist and studying philosophy to be intelligent. Just another idiot with zero job prospects.
>>
If youre going to study humanities all day youre going to become a leftist, just look at a niggers head theyre missing the frontal lobe, all the humanities shit is a massive mountain of worthless masturbation that you stake your life on
>>
>>83288921
imagining arbitrarily assigning a cardinal direction to your own localized political views and thinking its important nah there's intelligent people from all sectors
>>
It completely depends on what the hell "leftist" even means. While I'd consider myself a bit to the right relative to today's mass consciousness in which people who say the nigger word (even in self defense) should be flayed alive while a little deformed goblin kid dances a gay little jig while dashing handfuls of table salt into the exposed red underdermis, I respect a lot of the pre-1960's leftist thinkers and think they weren't the babbling idiots that babbling idiots like Ben Shapiro claim them to be. However, modern "leftism" which has become so far detached from class struggle or anything of substance and instead a literal tranny circus, is as anti intellectual as it gets and in an ironic but predictable twist, becoming just as dogmatic as the Christians who they claimed to be so much more enlightened in comparison to.

Very few right wing people care about sciences and humanities. They are more into business and engineering, which is still useful of course, but they very much don't want to tread new ground and aren't in fields of thought.
>>
>>83290778
>but they very much don't want to tread new ground and aren't in fields of thought.
well you CAN'T tread new ground because it infringes upon left wing orthodoxy.

>>83287377
Being a leftist inherently means you're low intelligence.

>>83290778
Kek most groundbreaking industries today are led by rightoids or rightoids larping as leftists.
The trvke is that most high iq people don't really have a set ideology but whatever
>>
>>83291566
>groundbreaking industries
Ah excellent, new ways to extract money from the poors until they bleed. News flash: business leaders are leeches who don't invent anything, they're literally just salespeople.
>>
>>83291097
there is less dogma in left wing philosophy
>>
>>83291566
no, it's just a difference in values. I'm not talking about industry, I'm talking about academia.
>>
>>83291737
yeah anon a groundbreaking company like spacex putting up 90% of orbital mass and offering low priced satellite internet to rural areas globally seems to align with the "extracting money from poors until they bleed" narrative
Leftists are so fucking delusional

You're so blinded by your retarded ideology that you can't see when an entitity has a positive impact. Fucking redditor

You have no understanding of value, you'll make a great leftist.

>>83292037
Ackshually going to a university is a great way to meet people, i.e. enhancing the best years of your life.
>>
>>83292051
There are plenty of other things you could study for better results.
>>
>>83292030
I dont get it, what's wrong with you

all the lefists i've met in university have either just been status-quo liberals or all talk, no action

I'm not seriously consider the opinions of the illiterate.
