Is this you user?

I have only learned to play one instrument, was only into music when I was younger. But I can technically play it. Does that count? DOES IT?

You shouldn't read philosophy, it's too easy to manipulate you.

...

Because I understand philosophy, I know that I don't have to validate these spooks in order to consider myself a philosopher.

>in order to consider myself
>considering yourself

Spooky like haunted graffiti

>trying to spook me into believing that a self doesn't exist

Well tried my lad, but I'm not that easily spooked.

I exercise, I came here from Veeky Forums

He's right though, you're dumb ay efff.

>Implying I do those things

God you weak, unmusical, crooked counters will say and believe anything

I can play the flesh trombone.

Is this youKek

>he's not fondling the dudelsack every day

good luck

I didn't read your post because you're dumb.

>doesn't understand you play the trombone with your mouth

I read your post cuz, you know, why else would I be responding to you

>doesn't read for his own pleasure and thinks he can understand anything from an imaginary plane of detachment when're he also partake in homoerotic fantasies involving his dead mother
>not giving authors their due by entertaining a literal transformation by way of taking their points literally because that's not how daddy taught me to read
>fosters a false idea of himself as a poly idealogical being able to traverse a fictional multiple-world from the very obviously singular world he inhabits
>not able to momentarily give up your false dichtonomies to encounter narratives for the pure joy of play

How's that for a response

>I lift but skip leg day
>playing music casually is for girls and rubes
>can understand basic arithmetic
what is the philosophical equivalent of this?

Read OP's post again and tell me if that user was wrong. OP is a bottom tier pseudo-intellectual.

Only bottom tier pseudo-intellectuals use terms like bottom tier pseudo-intellectual. A real thinker can actual construct a genuinely thought provoking criticism, even if he doesn't believe it. Bottom tier pseudo-intellectuals, in the grips of their own impoverished abilities, resort to (petty) slander. I hope the shit posters on lit become a bit more resourceful because this level of shit posting is really terrible and bad for morale

>doesnt exercise
I lift 5 days a week
>can't play music
I play guitar and sing quite often
>doesn't understand basic arithmetic
I graduated in CS

You may enter, but keep this oneAs far away from you as possible

That seems like a cool job, good luck user.

>A real thinker can actual construct a genuinely thought provoking criticism, even if he doesn't believe it.
But that's not what OP has done, didn't he?

OP has assumed that the replies to his thread would be from people who have a entry level understanding of Plato's republic and the requirements for philosophy described within aforementioned text.

Op was wrong to assume

My first post implied that I knew the source of what he was parroting.

>>doesnt exercise
I lift and run at least five days a week
>>can't play music
play drums, piano, and make electronic music
>>doesn't understand basic arithmetic
have done differential equations, linear algebra, and calculus
>>thinks he can understand philosophy
yes I can

I can play music and exercise often. You got me at arithmetic though.

Study mathematics then you dumb slut

Accurate

Seriously, imagine how magnificent philosophy would be if we weeded out those who can't 1/2/3/4, A7m, and a2+b2=c2

I guess we are just going to have to ignore the aspies

>>can't play music
stop bullying me you meanie

Is knowledge in math necessary or at least important to grasp (better) a philosophical thought?

>>doesnt exercise
wrong

>>can't play music
wrong

>>doesn't understand basic arithmetic
wrong

>>thinks he can understand philosophy
wrong

>Is this you user?
maybe

You need to understand numbers and how they are manipulated, you need to understand how a purely theoretic formula can have application with real effects. Like being able to plan out your work out, manipulate your diet via calories, how scales in music theory work, arithmetic isn't abstract, it's absolutely in the world. It's pretty crazy when you think about it

Petition to replace all liberal arts with philosophy and have kids learn the trivium and quadrivium in primary school?

Omg this would change the world
What with the technology we have now, I can't even imagine it
