If you're looking at celebrities kids tweets for philosophy I can see why you would think it's dead.

t. PERSON who listens to Jordan Peterson
Philosophy is dead and the vast vast vast majority of philosophical ideas are utter shit. Stoicism for instance needs to be thrown in the fucking trash

It's cool to be a contrarian when you're 14, but as a grown man you should be able to explain your views in detail, instead of just bashing everyone who responds to you.

Spengler is the last person who truly made an original, non-retarded contribution afaik

Sure got me there, I guess philosophy must be dead after all now you truly made your point clear. Maybe you should continue reading those Wikipedia articles

...

JP isn't bad, but calling him a philosopher is just stupid. I'd say you shouldn't be called that unless you've made some sort of original statement. All he ever does is rehash jung in a dumbed down way.

>posting an image macro as a substitute for an argument
shhhheeeeeeeiiiiit

actually now that I think about it, evola was alive after spengler so maybe that's what you meant?

if ur serious stop going on fucking /pol/

Post modernism killed philosophy. New Sincerity is stillborn.

/pol is retarded. Just because I'm nat soc doesn't mean that I automatically support their po-mo, brain dead garbage.

>One could call Schopenhauer an altogether crude mind. I.e., he does have refinement, but at a certain level this suddenly comes to an end; he is as crude as the crudest. Where real depth starts, his finishes.

It doesn't seem dead to me.

Start going through those to discover the next big obscure thinker rather than moping about the death of philosophy.

right now we're rigidly physicalist positivist as a culture. Next stage is a massive revolt against that, hopefully through some evolian esotericism influenced movement.

How on earth could a man be this wrong

You ever heard of rei. He's p popular on /lit.

I thought positivism died fucking decades ago.

positivism in the less strict sense of the notion is contemporary "common sense"

Isn't he a meme?

>He's p popular on /lit.
Veeky Forums is as stupid as /pol/

probably, he's damn original though that's for sure

Are you joking? That is the opposite of original

read his other shit. Original in the sense of being batshit insane, and probably schizo.

That image contains some of the most generic shit I've ever seen

SIFTED SAMPLES OF CURRENT PORNOGRAPHIC “ACTRESSES”, ALL OF THEM PRESENTING A LOW FOREHEAD:

FOR TEN HOURS I HAVE BEEN SNEEZING, AND BLOWING MY NOSE; I HAVE USED APPROXIMATELY ONEHUNDRED FIFTY PAPERTISSUES.

NOW, BROWSING THE WORLD WIDE WEB WHILST DRINKING MULLEIN TEA IN MY DARKENED ROOM, WITH ALLERGYINDUCED “WATERY EYES” AND “RUNNY NOSE”, LIKE AN “EPIPHANY”, I SPONTANEOUSLY CONFIRM SOMETHING THAT I HAD ONLY KNOWN FACTUALLY & SUPERFICIALLY: I AM EXTRANEOUS TO THIS ENVIRONMENT; THERE IS SOMETHING INHERENTLY “WRONG” WITH THIS WORLD; THERE IS AN UNDERLYING STRANGENESS PERVADING ALL SOCIETY, AND CULTURE, IN ALL THEIR MANIFESTATIONS, AND VARIETIES; I DO NOT BELONG HERE; THOUGH THIS MAY FIRSTLY SEEM LIKE ADOLESCENT OR AUTISMINDUCED ANGST, IT IS NOT.

IN THE YEAR TWOTHOUSAND FOURTEEN IGNOBILITY PREPONDERATES IN THE WORLD, AND HAS PREPONDERATED FOR MILLENNIA, THEREFORE ANY SOCIOCULTURAL EXPRESSIONS OR MOVEMENTS THAT ARE NOT RADICALLY NOBLE, WILL NECESSARILY MOVE WITHIN OR FROM IGNOBILITY; I AM LIVING IN AN IGNOBLE WORLD; KNOWING THIS, THE FACT THAT I AM STILL ALIVE SEEMS OVERLY IMPROBABLE; HOW AM I STILL ALIVE? HOW AM I NOT DEAD?

SOMETHING THAT IS DEAD, IS NOT; SOMETHING THAT HAS DIED, HAS BEEN; SOMETHING THAT IS DEAD WAS ALIVE, THEN DIED; WAS, THEN HAD BEEN.

I'm not so sure. On the right we have alternative facts/muh fake news/etc. On the left we have nonsense like the truth value of statements depending on the person speaking it, regardless of content (check your privilege, etc). There is no "common sense" because senses aren't held in common. People hold true what they want to hold true.

shit, now that I read it he is actually pretty retarded/unoriginal. He just expresses it in an interesting way.

A moron with an above average vocabulary is still a moron.

Philosophy is just for the pretentious and the pseudo-intellectuals now. It exists solely so that we can easily spot these people in every day conversation.
