#philosophy shitpost

Just stumbled upon a great philosophical debate while listening to a playlist on shuffle.

The esteemed philosopher Bill Joel puts forward that "It's still rock and roll to me" confidently declaring that rock and roll remains to some extent constant in how much it rocks.

However, his point is immediately challenged by philosopher Bob Seger who posits that "Todays music ain't got the same soul" and that he "Likes that old time rock and roll". Confidently declaring that rock and roll has declined in its rockness.

This is truly one of the most important debates facing philosophy today.

Actually

it's only "Existential Despair" if it comes from the Existentialism Period of Europe. Otherwise it's just Sparkling Philosophical Anguish.

Being a debater is great because people assume you talk about the fiscal policies of Northern Europe or whatnot when you hang out after practice but you actually spend good thirty minutes playing f---, marry, kill: philosophers' edition.

The line between shitposting and philosophy is a very fine one

If you've never cooked soup in a pan and fried potatoes in a pot, you've never done deconstruction.

Psychologists and Philosophers be like: This thing that is completely unrelated to sex in every way reminds me of dicks. Obviously everyone else thinks this too. This just goes to show that everyone (and especially my mother) just wants a dick in them.

I really feel for Bertrand Russell, being Wittgenstein’s teacher must have been traumatizing

There are so many people fucked over by sigmund freud but Oedipus Rex is up there.

The character famous for not wanting to fuck his mother, goes to great lengths not to fuck his mother, and rips out his eyes after the fates fuck him over.

That's the guy you're gonna name your incest complex after,sigmund

From now on, all incestuous thoughts and theories are called Freudian as penance

hello and welcome to Plato’s gamer cave. Don’t worry about the shadows on the wall! That’s just his sick-ass projector

Honestly, those Enlightenment philosophers would’ve loved tumblr.

“I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it?” Yesss, pop off queen, we love freedom of speech.

“Nature hath made men so equal in the faculties of body and mind?” Tumblr hivemind. We are one.

“Experience shows us that every man invested with power is apt to abuse it?” Don’t worry Montesquieu, we hate the government too.

“I think, therefore I am?” Yeah, okay René. No one wants to listen to your ‘the world is a simulation’ theories. Go back to Twitter.

I hate the narrative that god doesn't belong in the same conversations as science. Maybe before time there was an alien beyond human comprehension playing universe sandbox, made some quarks kiss, and now, billions of years later, I'm cranking it to yuri
