Is there any worthwhile philosopher since the 2000s?
Even people you don't agree with. I feel like philosophy kind of die out after WW2.

george h penis is a good philosopher.

Maybe McDowell, Kripke or Chalmers but the age of the great philosopher is over to be sure.

This is my theory only but the modern job industry, social pressure and the internet kind of kill Philosophy.
No one wants to sit down and write a long book of ideas about humans and politics. No money.
Social science is used as a political tool.
Even if you publish anything solo, it gets buried in the vast information sea on the internet.

No, just like there isn't any worthwhile literature written in the modern era, besides a couple Cormac McCarthy novels being halfway decent

Do not mourn OP, it's just like how no one is composing operas and string quarterts in modern times either.

However, we need to cherish these great minds so that they can help guide us through the muck of modernity.

Even if this sounds like something a boomer would say, I feel like humanity stopped progressing around 1950s or 1960s.
We have better technologies now but the society is in stagnation.

The world after 1991 is a Monoculture globalized technocratic cesspool. Development of the world through conflict and ideology ended, for now we’re in a crippling state of decadence where Neoliberalism reigns supreme. This is why there’s hardly any good philosophy or art for the last 30 years. There’s no innovation, nobody has anything interesting to say, and if they do then they just criticize things within this Monoculture.

The New Atheist movement was the best example, since all of them are inherently liberal to their core but just had more of an anti-religious edge to them, meaning they never said anything new or interesting and faded away over time.

A lot. Badiou, Zizek, Ranciere, Agamben, Sloterdjik and others I may have left off.

Their legacies haven't been made yet. But those are the candidates for the most likely to be discussed from our time.

The age of Kants and Hegels is over. Now only Ciceros and Senecas are possible. JBP is of that type.
