What's the Veeky Forums equivalent of /pol/'s "redpill"? What's the Veeky Forums pill? Is it Existentialist philosophy (e.g. Camus)? Is it Stirner? Is it Hegel? etc What beliefs would the Veeky Forums pill entail? What lifestyle?
Veeky Forums pill, serious thread no memeing only post in this thread to acquire wisdom
>What's the Veeky Forums pill?
-Perennial esotericism
-Hegel but as a Protestant mystic
-Reading only poetry and continental "philosophy"
I think one of the characteristics of a /pill/ is that once you take it there's no going back. You never go back to your old way of seeing things. Question is: how would this apply to literature?
pills are for sick people
Kabbalistic Ceraism.
>Hegel but as a Protestant mystic
There isn't any other serious reading of Hegel.
>muh left Hegelians defending atheist interpretations of Hegel
Fuck off.
>What's the Veeky Forums pill
Meditations
Augustine
more like whiny crybaby faggot pill
This,
also Schopenhauer
Do you even stoically lift bro?
Joseph McElroy. After reading his books you instantly become patrician
GREEKS
are the only real answer, because you never leave, or start really- you become them
C'mon. Everyone knows this is the Veeky Forumspill:
-The Holy Bible
-The Quran
-The "The Republic"
-The Tao te Ching
-The Dhammapada
-The "Progress and Poverty by Henry George"
Literally the allegory of the cave
Is Neoplatonism the Veeky Forumspill?
Yes, combined with Islam.
Veeky Forums and Veeky Forums are basically the same board. I don't know anyone who isn't flipping between the two.
Ironic Buddhism
Sincere appreciation of DFW
Starting with the Greeks
Talking about (Stirnerian) spooks while never having read Stirner
The Culture of Critique
Shia or Sunni?
Good question. Neither in my opinion, they both have Hadiths.
The way is simple Quranism. And regard the Tao Te Ching as referring to God as well, and you have the basis for an equitable neoplatonic religion.
Seconding Schopenhauer. I do not think that many people could read the entirety of The World As Will and Representation, or even selected sections of it, and not return as a changed man on the other side
>Quranism
opinion discarded
