This. Philosophy is only impressive at the beginning and/or if you're a doctrinarian, as many people on /lit/ actually are. The more you read, the more you start to realize that at least 90% of them are totally disingenuous and just writing crap to support whatever they want to believe. Even those that seem supremely rational like Kant still have an agenda.
Having said this, modern philosophy is definitely worse than ancient and medieval philosophy. I have no doubt there are people on this board that legitimately think Nietzsche is a genius and that probably haven't and won't read a person like Anselm ever in their fucking life.

"We live our way into thinking; we do not think our way into living" -Kierkegaard

Kierkegaard was right in being the best phenomenalogist. However, his philosophy was not "right" as much as it was his own and true for him as your philosophy should be true for you and do the same.

Other good branches/thinkers:
William James, John Dewey, and Pragmatism although both James and Dewey have things wrong that I disagree with.
Jean-Paul Sartre is a good read if you want to get laid via existentialism.
Platonists should be shot, these as well as many philiosophical branches are more about society, and this is where I think Dewey has his faults as well, instead of the individual. These people have a general disdain for the phenomena of the individual and see philosophy as something meant to better society, a reverse of this is true. Bettering the individual betters society, idealistic society worship betters no one as we have seen occur since the 1960s.
