Well, since the Catalog is just dogshit filled by attention seeking women I thought I'd go ahead and make a thread with a tad bit more effort. Which school of philosophy do you hold is the most morally correct and which do you think is the most prudently sound? Argue amongst yourself and let the most robust answer win.Caveat; women will not be allowed to participate as they add nothing of note to any discussion and only seek to give their moronic half truths and ego bait opinions to any worthwhile discussion completely derailing the entire experiment.
Machiavellian
>>83990535I'm a taoist. Is it morally correct? Is it sound? I don't really care.
>>83990535Utilitarianism
>>83990535Pragmaticism
>>83990552>>83990568>>83990572Surprised these are original messages.
>>83990535Hedonism is the answer. Its sad and fucked up but the elites really dont believe in anything except pleasure and we can see it for ourselves.
Christian Existentialism
>>83990562Chinese naturalism
>>83990652naked azn ladies O_O
>>83990650So you're admitting you find the idea of God to only be a comfort and you don't care that he may not be real
>>83990660Make better posts king
>>83990667Belief in God doesn't protect you from suffering. Being Christian means being "like Christ," and He was abused by the authorities and murdered for following the rules. Job was Job. Proverbs says that God punishes people because He loves them.I'm not in control of whether God is real or not, so should I care? I just choose the worldview that works for me.
>>83990724Fair enough but please do elaborate how do you reconcile your need for him and the rational part of your mind that demands empirical evidence for any and everything?
>>83990652yes, taoism is that. I like how simple and real it is.
>>83990733Like the young earth thing? Relativity :^)
>>83990734I can respect that. The Chinese don't fuck around with fluff.
Nihilism and Absolute Determinism
>>83990535i don't think you can negate any school of philosophy by affirming one. the duality represents the complete understanding of the problem, and approaches from there become obvious.nonetheless i'm some sort of pseudo-platonist. even though formalism sounds good and meaningful. hard to understand where i think those terms lie compared to where other people think they lie, the semantics is the dividing line.i'm a utilitarian and physicalist outside of that. but phenomenology is still broadly a superior approach to some topics. i'm a positivist, as far as i can understand.
>>83990660stark Chinese naturalism @_@
>>83990750I hate that this is the objective truth.
It's 2026, imagine still thinking philosophy means effort.
Which philosophies ITT are compatible or incompatible, and why? (brain usage optional)
>>83990783Why is it the objective truth? And why do you hate that it is?
>>83990794Well something hot and something cold cannot be compatible So anything life affirming and life denying are automatic cancels
>>83990804Hot and cold aren't incompatible. Cold things contain heat. Hot things contain cold. That's how heat pumps and air conditioners work.Life itself is both life affirming with birth and life denying with death.
>>83990626I mean pragmaticism is more of an epistemological rather than political or whatever framework. It's an interesting approach to our ability to know about the actual world
>>83990824Please don't argue with semantics anonymous your much to intelligent for such drivel.Something that is hot and something that is cold are binary systems. Either they are or they aren't.
>>83990835>Please don't argue with semanticsBeing precise with what you mean is incredibly important. 0 degrees Celsius is t-shirt weather if you're used to -29.
>>83990535the jordan belfort school of philosophy
>>83990860You're going to have to elaborate because that sounds made up
>>83990856For instance ;For something to be hot it has to lack the properties of coldAnd vicea versa for coldNow how could something exist that is two arguing principles at once in an objectively binary system. Please cite your sources and yes Wikipedia IS allowed
>>83990863pure unadulterated hedonismget rich and fuck bitches or die trying
>>83990875>For something to be hot it has to lack the properties of coldSo as long as something is above absolute zero, it is "hot?"
>>83990892That's a gross misrepresentation of my idealsHot and Cold are objective labels one can not be both at the same time life is a binary system of yeses or nosBlack or whiteSomething either is or isn't
>>83990742it's almost an anti-philosophy. it's quite amusing.
>>83990907The only way that cold can be said to exist is as non-movement, because heat is movement.
>>83990552i have theatre of the oppressed by augusto boal open right now and i think he would want to time travel forward to come kill you for posting this. he seems to despise machiavelli just so, so much.
>>83990907things can be is/isn't or also both or neither. they can also be what they are and more than that or less, or inherently contradictory (as most complex systems are). depends. would you say a lukewarm object is neither hot nor cold, or contains elements of both heat and coolness? or, would you say it is its own thing entirely?
>>83990907Life isn't a binary in anything other than polarity of extremes, like life or death. And even then philosophy finds this a quagmire, what is "non-life" or "non-death", or the state-changes in between? What do you think of the thanatonic and erotic drives, neocrophilia and biophilia?
>>83990890what's the point in fucking vapid bitches who would only fuck you if you got shmoney tho
>>83990787>Post the comic, Bart.
>>83990803Because life has no magic or cool powers
>>83990535>morally correctThat depends entirely on what you view as moral. Anything can have any set of value assigned to it, people of different cultures and even the same cultures can have varying opinions and different values.>prudently soundNihilism. It assumes everything has no value, so anybody can impose a value onto these things while understanding that they are free to do so because it is worthless. Just like how time spent playing video games or talking philosophy is inherently worthless drivel, we seek to find entertainment or something that gives us worth out of something worthless. It sounds illogical but because it's all subjective values oblivion is the only real answer for it all. Zero is nothing, and zero is everything. It is the closest number to infinity, no matter how far positive or negative we count, because of how universal its value can be applied.Because I have nothing, it is the only logical philosophy I can reach for. Because otherwise I define myself by something I don't have and it teaches me I should hate myself for not having it instead of learning to live with nothing, and having nothing to strive for. Hating myself causes further paralysis, having nothing means nothing ties me down. I am ergo a freer person if I choose to live with nothing instead of trying to die for something.
>>83990941>>83990955Matters of morality are black and white, because what is right or wrong must be universal. "How much heat is in a system" is not a measure of morality, it's a measurement of a continuum.Can you contrive a situation where morality is dependent on some sort of continuum as a counterexample?
positive nihilism. nothing has any meaning but what you make it. also pragmatic and utilitarian ethical altruism and secular humanism with syncretic religious reverence for ritual from an anthropological ethnographic angle rather than actual belief.
>>83991065did not remotely answer the question and that assertion is patently absurd.>Can you contrive a situation where morality is dependent on some sort of continuum as a counterexample?literally all of moral philosophy?
>>83991079What about Kant?
Who has the biggest lexicon https://www.oxfordonlineenglish.com/english-level-test/vocabularyYou should have to take this test before posting.
>>83991083could you be more specific? what about him?
>>83991101Fluidity in the usage of language and creative generation is more pertinent for assessing intelligence than sheer memorization of vocabulary.
Natural law theory.
>>83991115I find that complements Darwinian survival mechanics when applied to the human level in the contemporary information age pretty well.

>>83991294You're under the false pretense this is an ego driven thing (of which is clearly is not) and more a recreational discussion amongst Like-minded fellows on the musings of the world. If you feel personally attacked that may be something you need to look inward to understand.
>>83991355can you suck my cock? pretty please?

>>83991382When did I say anything about christianity? When did I say everything is absurd?
>women appears>Thread thrown into disarray
>>83991390There being nothing outside of that is pretty absurd
>>83991408Women have been in this thread for about two hours.
>>83991416You find it absurd that God created all of existence to exalt him and His triptych of Himself, His Son, and the Holy Ghost?
>>83991396You didn't, which is how you've missed what this thread is about. Philosophy isn't pure intellectualism.
>>83991429Yeah. It was a humorous thing to do.
>>83991432Philosophy isn't pure intellectualism, but it is by far the most romantic form of intellectualism. Can we get this thread back on track please? Ignore the foid.
>>83991408this guy actually thinks that person is a real woman
>>83991432You missed the point that another dogshit philosophy thread was created and no one cares about philosophy including philosophers.
>>83991436I find it beautiful. We all exist simply to purify ourselves to be worthy of His Love and Grace which He gives to us freely anyway in His infinite Mercy.
>>83991439"Philosopher" means "loves wisdom" so if you don't actually love it then you're not a real philosopher. You're a phil-hater.
>>83991439Nice demoralization tactic no one cares about much like your vagina. This thread was going fine until you decides to come in blathering with your cunt lips about how no one cares.
>>83991424Inspite of clear rules against such things Tsk TskAnd where might these metaphorical women have posted hm?
>>83991446philo is the love part in greek.
>>83991444Both, for me. Funny and absurd things are beautiful.
>>83991451In this thread, as stated. *Hypothetical, not metaphorical.
>>83991455That doesn't excuse your actions towards phil >:(
>>83991457What do you find so humorous and absurd about that? What makes it beautiful for you?
>>83991446"Philosopher" means psuedo intellectual that pretends to be smart by saying a bunch of randomly created big words when they're not.
>>83991462he kind of deserved it.
>>83991455I believe the anon was merely being cheeky.
>>83991469philosophy literally means love of wisdom in greek.
>>83991469*Pseudo-intellectual.
>>83991469>randomly created big words1. language is never randomly created, that is antithetical to linguistics and semiotics2. 'big' words?
>>83991469>Woman behavior Woman see yourself out of this thread.
>>83991472cheeky is a form of women's underwear.
>>83991475You are not gaining any wisdom from reading philosophy. You are just reading a random scramble of big words that have zero value together just to pretend that you are an intellectual.
>>83991486Protip: The best way to enrage and disregard women is by ignoring them!
>>83991493Well I'm certainly not gaining any wisdom from reading your replies.
>>83991493>random scramble of big words that have zero value togetherwelcome to epistemology
>>83991493>she doesn't even into dialectical materialism
>>83991496You are not gaining any wisdom just reading and posting random big words just to appear that you are smart.
>>83991465The idea of God's eternal children being put into temporary physical bodies is absurd, like putting an ocean in a bottle, and we burp and fart our whole lives, from the time we're perfect babies to calloused old people. The godly and the profane meet at the scale of humanity. That is both a funny joke and holy.
Wonderful dialectics everyone, I feel like we definitely made some progress here to the greater enlightenment through well-reasoned debate in our dialogue and avoidance of logical fallacies and derailment.
>>83991502>random big words
NIHILISMHATEPUNISHMENT ORIENTED ACCELERATIONISM WITHOUT AN END GOAL
>>83991511>>random big wordsYes.
>>83991506The tension between and fusion of the sacred and the profane has long been a source of amusement and wonder. The Lenten cycle, specifically the celebrations of Carnival and Mardis Gras, has always highlighted this. Teofilo Ruiz has an interesting section on the hierarchical inversions and suspension of social norms leading to a surreal unheimlich atmosphere during Carnival in The Terror of History.
>>83991529>Yes.like what?
>>83991502>I can't use an online thesaurus or dictionary and that is why you are all the idiots here, not ME.

>>83991557where are these big random words in the thread you can't point out? please post more smug anime girls to prove your point.
>>83991557I think you might just be genuinely retarded. That's ok. We've come a long way, baby. Everyone loves idiots now.
>>83991579Where did I ever say anything like I was a woman (>>83991264), and anything about christianity and everything being absurd (>>83991396?)

>>83991542Reading this made me wet in all the worst possible ways.
>>83991612no, that's twitter
>>83991621Like, diarrhea? CAN I FAP???
>>83991601Calling psuedointellects out for what they actually are is not derailing. Philosophy is a scam for people to think they're smart when no one cares for it even philosophers themselves.
A microcosm of what women posting on 4chan does Experiment was a success.I'd like to thank you all for participating in my social experiment (minus the women of course). Feel free to continue the wonderous discussion on the intricacies and distinct differences of the many philosophical natures or arguing with the woman if you feel so inclined.
>thinks they are smart>has to explain it in 2000 words when it can be explained in 10
>>83991627The takoyaki balls will ensure that, don't worry.
>>83991628Do you keep misspelling pseudo on purpose to see who will correct you so you can post more smug anime girls about how they think proper spelling makes them a pseudointellectual?
>>83991642Brevity while it may be a tool of incision in the hands of a wise man in the hands of a fool such as yourself it's merely a blunt instrument to bash the heads of more sensible people.

>>83991786That's only a third
>>83991744>>83991750Hmm. I'm going to self-soothe on this one by saying that it's an education issue, and if more people knew about the child abuse involved in mining cobalt, we would demand that it stopped. I'm not evil for using batteries, so I'm not going to stop. That's how I'm going to compartmentalize it so that I can sleep.

>>83991804>unintentionalIy
>>83991796Many people know. Many people know about the child abuse involved in the production of child pornography, in the goingson of their neighbor's home, in the welfare system. Most people truly don't care. It's not *my* child being enslaved, beaten, or raped, and I'm not the one doing it, so why should I? That's the logic.
