This is just sad. You can spend decades in Oxbridge but you still can't gain one tiny bit of non trivial reasoning ability after all that time. Philosophy is just applied common sense plus shitloads of PR to promote your particular piece of nebulous unfalsifiable assertions in the infinite miasma of possible unfalsifiable assertions.
