>Hehehe I'll just question the definitions of everything, that'll show 'em!
Philosophy is trash. Socrates was a brainlet. Yet pseuds continue to perpetuate the tradition he began.

>> No.10392903

>>10392888
Socrates was the smartest man in Athens and no one since Nietzsche and Wittgenstein has come close to him in the West, his only peers are Lao-Tzu, Chuangzi, Nagarjuna and The Zen Patriarchs and masters outside of Nietzsche and Wittgenstein. Anyone who instinctively dislikes Socrates is probably an enemy of the species and a threat to all life on Earth in the long term

>>10392888
Philosophy is the love of knowledge, but it's end result through history has been a rejection of knowledge as being certain. The entire project defeats itself
