pragmatist & instrumentalist epistemological theory

>I've overpilled on modern philosophy-pills, and bought into pretty much every non-essentialist, constructionist, relativist and anti-realist meme there is.
what is the problem then? are you just unhappy with your current views or are there any other symptomes?

Its one thing to understand ideas and another thing to experience them.
Meditate.

The mind cannot retain its previous shape

The amount of shit necessary to have read to say this is insane, no one on /lit/ has accomplished this

I'm coming from teenage nihilism, so this is an improvement, but I feel like philosophy is too complicated for me to do anything with it, and I feel like the people who try are either naive or stupid. It's not a problem per se, but having a more constructive set of beliefs would make it possible to have engagements with people and ideas, which I really love doing. I'm in no way a nihilist I just feel like I'm talking past people and reading/thinking past ideas if that makes sense.

if you dont believe in god your life will be a pointless struggle to try to cope with the fact that you are mortal, thats the wisdom i got from 1 kierkegard book and a youtube video.

I am really glad we have so much anime being posted on /lit/ these days

From what?

>>12850081

get into occultism and renaissance magick, use giordano bruno's method to create visual similitudes of the heavenly potentates, read the original CCRU transcripts from the 90s, summon angels and demonic forces from beyond the stars. I mean, if you are already beyond ''logic'' and ''facts'' you might as well have fun at it.

>>12850081
this is exactly why I started going back to church. read a little too much history of science and systems theory.

Sounds cool. I like nick land. Never said im beyond facts or logic, just view them functionally and not as something transcendental. The schizo period and CCRU memes are the kind of thinking im interested in. Also steins; gate

Try struggling for something.

This. Instrumentalism will bring you back to a more practical 'reality,' in so much that it will allow you to at least navigate the world without constantly questioning everything presented to you.
