why does Veeky Forums never discuss one of the greatest modern philosophers?
Why does Veeky Forums never discuss one of the greatest modern philosophers?
Nathaniel Taylor
Brody Hall
postmodern bourgeois semantics are not my cup of tea
Owen Martin
His ideas aren't edgy enough.
Lincoln Anderson
Utterly boring and inconsequential
Ayden Williams
Basically this, Veeky Forums only discusses philosophers you can shitpost about. Because if you can't shitpost, you have to actually read.
Parker Thompson
He's what happens when crit theory stops chasing rebellion and utopia, and grows the fuck up:
>For the normative self-understanding of modernity, Christianity has functioned as more than just a precursor or catalyst. Universalistic egalitarianism, from which sprang the ideals of freedom and a collective life in solidarity, the autonomous conduct of life and emancipation, the individual morality of conscience, human rights and democracy, is the direct legacy of the Judaic ethic of justice and the Christian ethic of love. This legacy, substantially unchanged, has been the object of a continual critical reappropriation and reinterpretation. Up to this very day there is no alternative to it. And in light of the current challenges of a post-national constellation, we must draw sustenance now, as in the past, from this substance. Everything else is idle postmodern talk.
Nathaniel Wood
