Philosophy is not an innovative field. It's filled with obvious truisms that anybody could come up with. It's is not like mathematics and physics where there are actual developments to be made and problems to be solved. It's just restatements in fancy prose.

>Hobbes: People are often bad and need to be controlled by a strong government

No shit, sherlock

>Locke: Citizens must allow their government to govern

No shit, sherlock

>Mill: The mathematical best outcome for the largest group of people is often the most ethical one

No shit, sherlock

>Kant: A person's morals depend on their duties and convictions

No shit, sherlock

>Nietzsche: There is no meaning of life

No shit, sherlock

>Thinly veiled we live in a society venting thread
But being serious for a moment, what is the alternative? All the grand narratives have been shattered, there is no reason to put your trust on the government, on the church, on academia, on any other institution. What else is there to give life purpose in today's day and age except the pursuit of individualist pleasure?

None. Colleges are indoctrination centers and diploma mills, filled with morally bankrupt, intellectually dishonest ideologue tenured boomer professors and brainwashed students. You will have to seek beyond academia to true intellectualism

>Civilization is an abomination
False. The great civilizations of the ancient world were based and redpilled. You're thinking of Society™, which I agree, is a piece of crap.

Revolt Against the Modern World by Julius Evola
But really, I would recommend the Western canon in its entirety, we have to remind ourselves that we have a culture that was forged for millennia, and we can look to the past to find answers to today's problems. In any case, it's better than imbibing in the contemporary slop that is media today
