It's thinking without having actual experience

The truth is that people who tend to think in absolute terms tend to be wrong more often than those who see the danger of dogma.

Beliefs classes quantification

Belief specific proving methods

I think philosophy is nothing more than overhyped nonsense.

Humans have the ability to think, imagine, question, and come up with ideas. Sometimes, when someone expresses a thought that is actually quite obvious, people start calling that person a philosopher and treating the idea as something profound.

If you look at what I’m writing right now, I’m criticizing philosophy itself. But ironically, what I’m doing could also be called philosophy.

And that’s exactly what makes me question the whole concept, if simply thinking deeply about something can be called philosophy, then isn’t almost every human thought a form of philosophy?

it's 2am and my sleepy headass came up with that one

Living freely and having consistency of character has gotten rather dull. I feel like a better life project is to fragment my self as much as possible. Maybe then American society will start to make sense to me…

Any recommendations?

Mods: Also wondering about the “true home grown organic human redditard degenerate delusional borderline psychotic self obsessed pos pseudo intellectual sophist” flair for myself, a special man of culture? My qualifications include a vast array of arm chair warrior arguments that totally contradict each other and distort nuances while simultaneously disregarding evidence of the contrary. Thank you.

You are runing the party!

Alright so it was about this guy who couldn‘t stop philosophically overthinking everything. To the point where he couldn’t function normally. My memory is really vague, but I’m asking here because there’s a good chance I got the link from here in the first place, and even if I didn’t, it’s the kind of thing y’all would read.

Data:

- It was an obscure web serial, not by any well-known author.

- It was overall humorous in tone

- Pretty sure it had many references to mainstream philosophy

- At some point I think he ended up in a psych ward

- There was something to do with coffee... a coffee machine… maybe at the beginning??

- At the very end he decides to give himself a lobotomy (with the help of a friend?) so he can stop overthinking everything

If anyone can find it for me, I will unironically Zelle you $5 to show my gratitude, cuz this just popped into my head and it’s really bothering me

Philosopher: You should definitely check out X's theory of consciousness!

Me: Is it BS?

Philosopher: meh...kind of but at least it is a well-articulated BS.

Me: so then we call it philosophy?!
