The book of real life

Scientists have discovered the reason white women love BBC so much is because they have melanin receptors on the inside of their pussy that lights up with immense pleasure when coming into contact with BBC.

"In English doc!" Basically white boys cant compete.

If he isn't your first philosopher I think you should disregard what most people are saying. You don't need to read Frege, Russell, Carnap and especially not Kierkegaard. The Kierkegaard reply was obviously confused.

You should become aware of logical atomism and positivism, at least. Just reading the stanford encyclopedia entries should give you enough grounding to read Philosophical Investigations, which is Wittgenstein's actually interesting book.

I don't know much about anything current that dwells much on how philosophy can sabotage itself by not getting a clear picture of its own language, but for this purpose I'd generally recommend Ernst Tugendhats Einführung in die Sprachanalytische Philosophie. I don't know if there's an English translation.

Alternatively you could take a look into Stanford's entries on Ordinary Language Philosophy or Logical Atomism/Logical Positivism. I don't find Logical Positivism to be of any value but Russel's King of France example might give you an introductionary sense of what philosophers of language find appealing about their project.

Philosophische Untersuchungen of course!

This is what philosophers of language were afraid of. Scary indeed...........

Nietzsche + Paul Grice

Brainlet, this has been dealt with a million times already.

I didn't read your post or even looked at your image. You know what I'm accusing you of you subhuman. Read more you insincere brainlet.

ODed on baby's first metaphysics, probably didn't even read Kant prior to digesting Hegel

Kant, Nietzsche, (late) Wittgenstein

You sound like a massive retard

I see, what do you think of Hegel? Do you see him as a metaphysician betraying Kant's project or, as the post-Kantians think, as just reformulating Kant's critical philosophy?

>>13037704
are you interested in his practical philosophy? how is his theory of radical evil not a massive problem for his practical philosophy? at least in die religion innerhalb der grenzen der bloßen vernunft, i think it massively contradicts the demand for autonomy in his ethics

the religionsschrift made me dismiss kantian ethics

Illusionism is the opposite of reductionism... that's partially why Dennet thinks it should be pursued.
Retarded brainlet faggot, I bet you always talk like this about stuff you know little about.

AFAIK it's all practical and very little metaphysics. Again why do you think Kierkegaard can be compared to German idealists for example? I realize he was a critic of Hegel but probably didn't deliver a metaphysical refutation of Hegel's systems, or did he?

Kierkegaard is a very mindful philosopher but he's so limited and antiquated. I loved Sickness Unto Death, it was an amazing read but again very limited in its scope. I don't know why you think you can compare Kierkegaard to a Nietzsche, a Hegel or a Kant.

Russel isn't the type of philosopher who has practical value.

Circles with edges don't exist, yet I engaged in discourse about something that doesn't exist!

You really think you made Kant's system crumble with a single sentence? Kant never makes positive statements about the thing-in-itself.

there actually are adult ass dummies who think thomas' arguments for God actually work

I'd unironically say Hegel, but reading the CPR before will cull the time it takes to "get" "it" by half.

I really don't understand why people keep suggesting any philosophers but Kant to understand Kant. Any reference to previous philosophers are contained in that book, he name-drops Hume, Locke and Berkely for example. Just read the book. If you still end up confused you can always do some cursory googling to fill in the gaps. Anyone saying you need to prepare for it is being stupid.

Whitehead guy, don't even think he read him.
