Actual philosophy?

Honest question: is anyone here interested in actual philosophy at all? Not hating on the other stuff posted but would be nice to have an actual discussion on real philosophers rather than “wordporn” and stuff. Maybe post below if there’s something interesting and distinctly philosophical you came across you’d like to discuss (edited)

I think you are talking about 'actual philosophy' that is taught in Universities as part of syllabus

You'd probably be better served by asking specific question(s) in a post - I doubt you'll get like university-style conversations for philosophy, but I'm sure people would try.

For the most part, it is mostly *insert random Marcus Aurelius qoute* or "live laugh love" post, so if you're looking for deep philosophical discussions, you really have to look hard. That or play the role Socrates and go around challenging a lot peoples ideas,but most people work really hard on that "live laugh" post so I wouldn't recommend it (heh). I've had had some fun discussions from time to time.(See my comments) With some really unique thinkers, so they are on here. Though remember this is technically a dating app. Philosophy encompasses both the light and the dark, but very few go into the dark. (edited)

I am interested in philosophy but not so much that I spend time analyzing Kant in my spare time. I'm willing to consider your thoughts but I would not feel up to par in am actual discussion. I woukd however like to reexamine philosophy now that I have actually lived some.

Literacy in regards to philosophy isn't there for most. I'm not claiming to even understand a lot of it, but I enjoy the subject. Eventually at some point with the nature of these apps all the interests people list or engage with can reductively be seen as virtue signaling. Is there anything wrong with that inherently? I don't think so, but it has the potential to lead to closed-mindedness.

The secret to truth is doing exactly opposite what the majority or masses are doing ?

Philosophical minds, always damned by the subtext aren't they. Misunderstood and misrepresented by those who cannot parse between the literal and literary. But hey, that's all subjective.

The Problem with Romanticism

Over the centuries since the Enlightenment, we've seen the dark side of reason unfolding in myriad ways. From the reign of terror and the Libertines, to the rise of capitalism and fascism and nihilism in the wake of the death of God. But there is something we don't often discuss, because of its... read more

Something hard to learn.

As someone who cares a little too much about everyone, I tend to get very mad and villainize people who hurt me. Instead I'm working on forgiving them and forgetting them and continuing on with my life without the weight of my anger.

Something hard to learn.
