Socrates because of how he questioned everything

Plato for his moral wisdom.

what about your philosophy, is it a mixture of them or do you just have admiration
Disclaimer: this post and the subject matter and contents thereof - text, media, or otherwise - do not necessarily reflect the views of the 8kun administration.

No real order:

1.Marx - process relationism and its implications for science
2.Alan Watts - dialectical monism, eastern theories of self
3. R.G. Collingwood - Absolute presuppositions and its implications for human understanding

All three combine into a system that would only make sense to someone who is willing to bend a few precious rules of classical and modern logic and sidestep epistemology as derivative of ontology, which is up for grabs to our deepest subjective intuitions.

Realistically though, I'm influenced by a lot of others. Wittgenstein is a different aspect for me of what Collingwood got at. Kant's noumenal/phenomenal distinction is very important to me, particularly through Hegel's critique and reconceptualization of noumena. Aristotle's potential/actual distinctions are very important in connection to the noumena/phenomena concept, and virtue ethics is my preferred ethical stance.

Going to read Spinoza soon, kind of curious what I might get out of him.

for his thoughts on good/evil mainly.

2.Diogenes of Sinope
Because of his integrity first and foremost but also because of his ideas in general (with a few exceptions)

3.Arthur Schopenhauer
Because of it's main work; The World as Will and Representation. I don't completely agree with everything but at least it's not bullshit like Kant.

Well. besides the old cliche "Aristotle, Socrates, Plato) i´d prefer to make this a top 3, favorites philosophers since Bacon.

1.Kant
To me, still the last great philosopher to appear and one of the most brilliant of them all.
2.Descartes
The first 2 meditations of his Meditations are just brilliant, the first solid foundation to skepticism. Until he put God in the way and fuck it all up.
3.Locke
His Essay Concerning Human Understanding was pne of the greatest works of philosophy, he sets much of the basis for Hume and, later on, Kant.

Honorary Mentions:
Roger Bacon - AKA the first of the great rationalists.
Hume - The one who "awakened" Kant of his "dogmatic dreams" and set up the modern account on skepticism.
Feuerbach - For founding the modern atheist philosophy (not ever since revisisted since Anaxagoras)
Feyerabend - He exposed us to some of our preconceptions about knowledge.
Gödel - Technically not a philosopher, btu a logician, still, he dramatically changed the philosophy of Formal Sciences with his groundbreaking work.
Gettier - He just demolished the sacred JTB assumptions of platonic epistemology in just 4 (that´s right FOUR) pages, now, that´s a feat to put him among the great epistemologians of all times.

*shrug*. All my exposure has been from listening to a bunch of Dreyfus's Heideggar lectures. Ive read a ton of Russell's writings.

Almost all of what I read is analytic. That said, I dont think its correct in any sense. No doubt Russell was mistaken about many things. I just think hes interests anyway.

How fun of you to mention Schopenhauer and Cioran, I'm reading both of them at the moment. Of Schopenhauer, I am interested in his asceticism and morality. Not surprising, considering I admire Indian philosophy (both Buddhism and Hinduism, more the former) and Stoicism.

If you haven't, maybe you should read about Lev Shestov. I do not know much of him at the moment, but he might interest you. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lev_Shestov

Also, Quine and Popper with Cioran and Schopey is a fucking solid and balanced set of philosophical interests. Most Analytics are pretty dismissive of Schopenhauer, and I'm sure if any of them had heard of Cioran they'd probably not care much about him either.

Very interesting choices here, some of which I have never heard of. By comparison, I feel really unoriginal, but I have to go with the ones I'm most familiar with.

1. Immanuel Kant
Though I'm glad to see he doesn't dominate the scene as much as he perhaps used to, I still have great affinity for his genral approach and basic premisses on nearly every subject.

2. Ludwig Wittgenstein
I disagree with almost every "conclusion" he draws (both Wittgenstein I and II to an extent) and yet I adore his understanding of philosophy and his attempts at tackling it from different angles. I tend to be much more fixated on form as opposed to content, and Wittgenstein was the first to actively force me to view past that (a bit).

3. Plato
The dialogical structure and argumentative precision is what I like best, though there are quite a few cases where he has seeming non sequiturs or moves from one madium of arguments to another. If it weren't for that, I'd like him even better.

An honourable mention goes to Thomas Aquinas, who is amazing in his grip on logic, but who gets major deductions for his unsubstantiated premises.
Both Nietzsche and Schopenhauer are excellent too, especially contrasting to the more traditional forms of German philosophy.

That's a tough question. I can think of three philosophers I like quite a bit but I'm not sure which I like most. Anyhow, those are:

-Nietzsche
-Cioran
-Marx

I don't think I'm well-read enough in philosophy yet. I should go do that first and then try to think of a better list.

Only really being familiar with his aphorisms, would any of you care to elaborate on the high regard you have for him? I honestly couldn't get into his reasoning at all, and he seemed all too willing to heavily lean on intuitions and malleable constructs (though this is only my impressions from the aphorisms) to justify his assertions.

Cioran is more of an author/poet who concentrates on ideas and feelings instead of plot and characters, much like Ligotti, so I guess that makes him a philosopher in a more continental than analytic way. Just read through his Goodreads quotes if you cba to buy and/or read his works, basically he's a pessimist about existence like Schopenhauer with a witty #yolo attitude about it.

3. Noam Chomsky - Revolutionized the field of linguistics to make it more empirically aligned.

The four people who have most influenced my thoughts are Hume, Bentham, Marx and Chomsky.


Existentialists and their ilk are all clowns as far as I am concerned. Psychoanalysts and Existentialists are non-empirical jokers who feel content to dress up folk wisdom and pass it around as profound truth. Beyond the cafes of Europe I really see no place for this kind of wordplay philosophy.

It's being shown that Chomsky lead linguistics down the wrong path.

There is no such thing as a "universal grammar" and language isn't innate to human beings so I wouldn't really call him that revolutionary. He had a big impact surely but it was a pretty bad one for the field as a whole.

There is nothing wrong with his generative grammar. Where his mistake is, is in postulating it as a result of a "universal" grammar. That has shown to be false by people studying the origin of language question.

It's important to note that for generative grammar to hold water there doesn't necessarily have to be anything universal about it.

His revolution wasn't necessarily that he was correct. He took what was once a very abstract and hazy domain that was often viewed as the domain of psychologists and firmly planted it in science. He was trying to find scientific ways to probe the human mind and the language faculties. His ideas were also very influential in the field of philosophy of mind. I don't agree with you about there not being a universal syntax but even if there wasn't that wasn't the main goal of Chomsky by suggesting that there was. Trying to understand the human mind without probing a living human is a very difficult task and one which Chomsky thought could possibly be undertaken by studying syntax which he believed to be universal.

Also it should be noted that Chomsky doesn't believe that language is used for communication and is instead primarily used for thought, (computer coding that allows it to run) so perhaps any discrepancies in universal languages that researchers have studied could be explained away by this position. I haven't read the most recent research in linguistics and I haven't read or heard Chomksy's rebuttal to such a claim which makes me question whether or not anyone has actually shown this to be the case.

His methods are far too inductive. While I never claimed that what he attempted to do wasn't commendable to an extent I still think setting linguists on a several decade long path of introspective "science" was the wrong thing to do.

The problem with postulating that language is innate and universal is the fact that if the grammar were then we would all be speaking the same language. I don't think it's necessary that it needs to be innate for the brain to be able to decode it. Children who grow up without a language are never able to acquire one afterward. Doesn't seem very innate.

Honorable mention: Karl Marx. I would've put him at the top but I don't consider him a philosopher. He's scientist. All of his political theories came to pass as if he had precognitive powers.

>father of communism

That's already an answer to your own question right there. Without him we would have neither communist politics, which is becoming more crucial than ever as capitalism is derailing to unseen extents, nor a HUGE amount of 20th century philosophy including critical theory. Tbh I'd even say most philosophers that are really worth reading nowadays are Marxists although Nietzsche is definitely an exception.

>Bourdieu's best known book is Distinction: A Social Critique of the Judgment of Taste (1979). The book was judged the sixth most important sociological work of the twentieth century by the International Sociological Association.[5] In it, Bourdieu argues that judgments of taste are related to social position, or more precisely, are themselves acts of social positioning. His argument is put forward by an original combination of social theory and data from quantitative surveys, photographs and interviews, in an attempt to reconcile difficulties such as how to understand the subject within objective structures. In the process, he tried to reconcile the influences of both external social structures and subjective experience on the individual

>Greatest "philosophical" work is basically a TL'DR version of brainlet normies REEEEing about some movie being too smart for them

I said philosophers not social critics you dumb fuck, philosophy is about more than "whooooa dude wouldnt it be crazy if there was like, a rich class of people controlling us and stuff?"

I still need to read more, but I'll take a stab at my top three philosophers. Well at least for now.

1. Aristotle - Solely for the concept of the Golden Mean,

2, Diogenes - Bantz, Though I wouldn't want to live the life he lived.

3. Plutarch - Forget about reading Siege, you need to read Moralia. Theory, metaphysics, and other forms of mental masturbation should be done sparingly and kept to yourself. The Moralia provides practical philosophy that you can apply to your life. One of these days I'm going to break down and get the whole Loeb collection.

Chill out, nobody will ever know every local piece of knowledge.

There is no clear line between philosophy and not philosophy, everyone draws their own. If that particular human insulted you for your different understanding of what is philosophy, just... tough it out.

This isnt even arguing semantics at this point, if you think social critics whose greatest idea were "What if the bad movies that I like are actually good?" count as philosophers then I guess /tv/ is the new philosophy board
