It's the way 4chan is structured. People get a dopamine rush from (you)s, and the best way to get them is to be a polemic faggot who makes posts for the sole purpose of getting a reaction out of others. Then you also have a large portion of posters who have daddy issues and hyperfixate on a single author which they have developed a parasocial relationship with, as kind of a replacement for the parental figure they never had.

I have been saying this for a long time.
Actually almost everyone in the modern age assumes a nominalist paradigm without even thinking about it, but troons act on it more than most.

Modern philosophy is inherently nominalist. No one except for traditionalists talk about essences and universals anymore, and the retards on this board just call them larpers or something.

What the fuck do you mean modern? What modern age? The 21st century is postmodern.
Use the correct semantic field.

Wrong. They are slave moralists that inherited their sickness from all the moral-institutional fictions universalists created in order to establish societies, which need the weak and mediocre.

Except they aren't. Most that I know of insist there is something substantial, even biological to their insanity. That isn't nominalism, that's just realism with new extra gender identities added to the traditional binary

>> No.19787281

>>19786856
Nah, Aquinas agreed with Wittgenstein at the end of his life. Moderns btfo themselves all the time by not understanding ancient wisdom. 4 pages in Plato's Republic is worth 40 years of modern thinking.

that is the emergent property of unguided random evolution processes without any teleology involved, which is compatible with nominalism
