don't know if cringegenstein was a subjectivist, I think he wasn't actually. But yeah, he probably was a trannie.

Clearly the brain is the source of colors then.

Already did, check out the Phenomenology of Perception. More than anything else that book changed my view of how the body and mind exist in the world.

Enlightenment is realizing that the first person is a lie. There is no I. There is only the third person. This consciousness has fully assimilated this fact.

Ponty's works are the only works that have made me question my own understanding of my relationship to me mind and body, they're amazing. His writings on art and language are equally great.

Doesn’t Locke mean by a secondary quality that while the experience of the colour is in our minds the object making us experience that colour still is actually that colour? Like the red we see is subjective but the wavelength isn’t

Why does post modernism seem to filter so many people here? I feel the only reason you guys hate it is the idpol and critical theory that spawned from it.

[Anonymous No.16175998]

>>16175990
Also I know that this post isn't referring to post modernism but it just made me think of it for some reason and I don't want to make another thread for this.

It’s actually hard to read and requires re reads so it filters people real quick

[Anonymous No.16176864]

>>16173542

that is so bad

belonging is not criteria for existence and a part of the whole is not the whole, when fractals are posited in a multiverse theorem of a hologram in a non-linear continuum of motion as shown in the work of Mandelbrot, then a limit is semantically a boundary that defines a language to symbiotically acquire a cognizant manifestation of an element that when the notion of belonging to the universe as in the universe is not included through the sensory perception as interpretstion of reality in the physical world where the field of universality doesn't comprise singularity when the limit is an element in itself of hyper space or outside of two entities that when included as a diagram of Venn and further in a flower of life from so called sacred geometry then the enunciation of three questions is an art form of one for the lack of delimitation as a fragment reunified simply as an acquired image or acquiescence to be as is.

Bruh tf you talking about this is peak modernism, this is basically Kant, abstract subject and everything

Comparing Wittgenstein to Kant is...interesting

Powerful enough that no one in the thread has actually addressed anything he said. That's because no one here has any idea what he was talking about.

Philosophers are just people who were too stupid to do actual science. Readers of philosophy are just people who are too stupid to learn hard science
>You just don't get it bro *huffs own fart*. Philosophy obviously goes over your head
You can pretend there's some deep hidden meaning in anything. Maybe you're just too dumb to realise that the confusion you feel when reading philosophy isn't because it's smart.

Bad bait but I'll respond anyways. Without Philosophy wouldn't have the legal underpinnings of our society, without philosophy we wouldn't have the epistemologic frame work to do science. Without philosophy we wouldn't have logic nor would we have ethics.
