Genuine engagement with philosophy makes you smarter, but the internet and social media makes you dumber. And as we can see here, the latter is winning.
It was intentional, lol. I basically just took (bad) takes from this sub, put them in a blender, and spit it out on a commonly used meme template. 🤣 If your takeaway is, 'No one on this sub reads/understands philosophy' (which in itself has become a meme...) then the post has done its job.
I believe it's referencing a thought experiment critiquing Kant where a deontologist would give up jews to the nazis because they have a duty not to lie about the jews hiding under their floorboards. Thus Anne Frank is sad. Deep cut.
I've never seen a mf 'rant' on social media about the transcendental time determinations of the categories that ground experience or the Spinozan concept of transindividuality or object-oriented logic or basically any interesting philosophical topic ever.
"A lot of philosophical writings are basically just the equivalent of social media rants" might be the absolute worst take i've seen on this sub so far and that's huge

Well you're on the wrong type of social media then.

Instructions unclear. I somehow ended up on the organ transplantation committee at a hospital with a lot of people jogging down our street every morning.
Chrysippos of soloi would exclaim his displeasure with the misrepresentation of stoicism by that psychology prof before pushing the lever towards that ones demise, after all people are drenched in hot air emitted from the mangled body of peterson he‘d turn to anne consoling her by whispering „me too“
I’m flipping a coin between Ayn Rand and the other dude. I’m not exactly a trained judge or the grand arbiter of morality, so I’d just choose randomly and hope for the best.
