Question by RIP Ajay: Why is it that when u always ask a hot chick who her favorite philosopher is, she’ll ALWAYS say Plato?
I mean Plato is okay, but some of his teachings are primitive and a little too archaic for modern society. What is it with Plato and hot chicks?

Has anyone else noticed this….And where are the hot chicks who like Soren Kierkegaard?

Question by Original Resonance: Is Cow Marks the most overrated philosopher in modern history?

Quite on the contrary, I think his theories and ideas resonated with most people. You don’t need to be educated nor intelligent to absorb his ideology as your own. That was why he was so popular with the lowly proles. His philosophical ideal is simply to make society a “better” place. Which is fallacious and delusional if you ask me. There is no such thing as society. There is only geography. Why should I indiscriminately care for a faceless arbitrary entity? If we have a duty to each other in society, then should a law-biding citizen pay for the sins of the law-breaking citizen? Socialism is an aberration from human empathy. And empathy is a vestige of the past. Humans evolve to feel the pain of each other because this skill is vital for the survival of individuals. We need to anticipate how others feel in order to exploit them. It was never about sacrificing for others. But of course, humans are not always rational.
We don’t always behave purposefully towards any teleology of any kind. For example, sex is for reproduction. And yet modern humans have no qualms practising protected sex for sex’s sake. Similarly, when we cry over the misfortunes of others, or sacrifice our lives to save a stranger in distress, we are making rational choices. If socialists/marxists argue that irrationality is good, then I wouldn’t have objected. But they are asserting that helping others for helping’s sake is self-evidently justified. How so, if I may ask?
Correction: Similarly, when we cry over the misfortunes of others, or sacrifice our lives to save a stranger in distress, we are NOT making rational choices.

Question by Am I Cool Yet?: Am I a Modern Day Philosopher? If so, are there more?
My deep thought is so overwhelming I don’t even know what to do anymore. I.e. I spend almost 3 hours just thinking about my existence, thinking about our society and co-existing individual lives. Its like I can take a ‘Birds Eye View’ over Humanity at anytime. Like I can, AT ANYTIME, just…Remote View anywhere. I dont have it mastered, but I can do it pretty good. I’ve also felt strong connections with an entity I believe. An entity of a higher plain. Now I know that most of you are like “Wow, NOW I know this dude is crazy.” But please understand that us humans, are more sensitive to the ‘unknown’ then you actually know. And everyday, my third eye is getting stronger, I can tell because I often see orbs, and shadow people, and I believe, astral forms just passing by. Im only a 18 year old looking for a higher purpose. And often my mind is physically feels like its pumping something, like its pulsating, and this energy is like WAY OVER WHELMING, and its like my mind is being hand messaged by God or something lol Like seriously, and it only happens when I channel my thoughts into the ‘Deep Abyss’ lol thats what I call it. Because that’s where I find most of my answers I look for. I used to use drugs, like Weed, and that fake weed, that REALLY STRONG fake weed, and I strongly believe that really enhanced my psychic abilities.
Yea, Im often viewed upon as ‘weird’ by people who do not understand. : /
