>Garcia Marquez is a fucktard who writes for normies and women.

“There is nothing I have read quite like this astonishing final chapter, symphonic, sure in its dynamics and tempo, moving like a riverboat too, its author and pilot, with a lifetime’s experience steering us unerringly among hazards of skepticism and mercy, on this river we all know, without whose navigation there is no love and against whose flow the effort to return is never worth a less honorable name than remembrance -at the very best it results in works that can even return our worn souls to us, among which most certainly belongs Love in the Time of Cholera, this shining and heartbreaking novel.”

–Thomas Pynchon, The New York Times, April 10, 1988

hume is pro-science. he goes out of his way numerous times in the enquiry to emphasize that he's not against science, and that no reasonable man can take his arguments to be. in fact we know he loved science and would without a doubt be called a bugman by this board if he lived today. amonst other things he strengthens science by showing how no a-priori deduction about the real world can ever be fully certain, we're left with empiricism. think about his work for more than 2 seconds (as he himself did) and you'll see that there's far more to defend science than attack it in it. you guys should try actually reading him sometime, he's very readable actually.
