Talk to philosophy student

These impudent, stupid pseudo-intellectual snobs aren't only in ivy league or Oxbridge universities. They are in virtually all of them. In my uni days I was in a philospohy tutorial where the lecturer made the illogical statement that there is no such thing is truth. I asked him if he expected us to believe his statement was true? Rather than commending me for my reasoning, he became angry because he thought I was trying to ridicule him. As he wouldn't answer my question, I dropped philosophy!

lmao btfo. philosophy is for failed artists or scientists. no one would choose to be a philosopher over a genius composer or a genius scientist, because it is always a last resort profession, for failures and frauds
>Nietzsche - wanted to be a composer and failed
>Wittgenstein - wanted to be an engineer, failed, wanted to be a mathematician, failed, wanted to be a musician, failed
>Heidegger - wished he was a poet/artist, failed
>Schopenhaur - wished he was a musician so that wouldn't have to live his boring philosopher life, failed
>Russell - wanted to be a mathematician, wasn't as smart as other mathematicians and so opted for philosophy
>every single modern anglo philosopher - wished they were mathematicians, so they try pathetically to use mathematical symbols and logic in their philosophy so that they can at least get the aesthetic of it

Philosophers are also all sad manlets trying to compensate for low self esteem
>Heidegger was like 5 feet
>Wittgenstein - 5'6"
>Nietzsche 5'8"
>Camus - 5'7"
>Kant - 5'0" LMAO
>Sartre - 5'0" LMFAO
>Derrida - 5'5"
>Zizek - 5'8"
etc. etc. etc..

Philosophers wish they could make an impact on the world, they wish they could create beautiful works of art, they wish they could be good looking Chads, but they always fail, so they try to argue their way out of it, reason their way our of it: "I may not be able to get that cute girl, but, uh, it's because I'm the Ubermensch, hehehe, right guys!?" Every philosophical theory has been overturned, and philosophy has NEVER come up with a definitive answer. It is a failed field, and no one takes it seriously. Philosophers are all sad, pathetic, delusional people.

I must correct myself
I am fairly certain that it had to do with book borrowing, and it were the ethic students that didn't bring them back on time
But the gist was there was no evidence that ethic students were more ethical

Students of economics are the worst, which shouldn't come as a suprise

If a philosophy student is telling you something like that, he's a pseud; he doesn't study ethics, if at all he's studying the history of ethics. There's no way to actually study ethics without the goal of becoming a more ethical person. Ethics are about acts - if you think acting in a certain way is good/bad - and don't act according to it, you're a living self-contradiction.

What is the utility of humanity?

He's right though, utility is an empirical paradigm, which philosophy isn't concerned with.

>actually
weasel word

So, do you guys just do these studies out of interest or is there a deeper reason behind it ?

There's nothing wrong with pursuing something out of interest, all it means is you should treat it as such,

>What is the utility of humanity?
Humanity.

What's the utiltiy of myself?
Myself.

Both are not a means to an end but an end in itself.
