Analytic is logic based while continental is feelings based.

Continental has real world application, analytic only deals with abstracts sanitized enough to work with perfect logic.

>When we abstract facets of human-constructed reality from existence to the point that they become playthings that are taken seriously, we are engaging in the autist’s phenomenology. What is ontology to Being of healthy social function, is phenomenology to the autist, the autistic is an inversion of the dialectical process. To the autist, direct interaction--that is, without the aid of a digital mediator--is ontology, and sex is downright noumena. The autistic dialectic is most authentic when it is in analytic form. The continental dialectic interfaces with the sexual praxis, either through making sex deontologically untenable, or through employing philosophy for practical realization of pussy. In contrast, the autistic (analytic) dialectic functions as a quality (thus not capitalist produced) bug spray for sexual intercourse, there is never any engagement with sexual praxis, either actively involved or against. Sex simply functions as a sort of obscure fiction, such as the ‘sky wizard’, and is disregarded entirely. Jouissance is ignored in favor of euphoria, providing an alternative meaning for autistic semiotics. In the autistic paradigm, history cannot end, because history is the process of life; and there is no life to begin with, the dialectic having excised as a function of plebeian normality. The maxim that one cannot know nuffin, is inverted, the autist knows everything, which is the source of euphoria. Being and Time alter drastically, the autistic time being wake up in the afternoon and shitpost until sunrise, sleep, repeat. While the continental’s pipe is being smoked by a nubile maiden, the autist is discovering a wry comment of the continental’s online, and is proving it wrong with as much gusto as the maiden has.

>Continental has real world application
In subjective areas like ethics, politics and fortune cookies.

You would have to be autistic to not realize that 99.99% of our existence is about subjective interpretation, that the sliver of 'objective' is only possible when numerous subjectives are taken for granted.

Greeks are ancient; Dawkins is neither.

Continentals look into, and incorporate, history of philosophy and obscure language. Analytical philosophers use logico-mathematical tools and strive for clarity of argument.

>he thinks maths and logic presuppose anything
>he thinks maths and logic are subjective
This is a picture of you.

>>5556738
Oh look, an answer that isn't biased. I should take a picture, for who knows when we'll see another one again.

>>5556740
Maths and logic do presuppose, they presuppose that things such as addition and multiplication are anything more substantial than power ranger transformations.

>>5556753
No they don't. How can you possibly think that? Explain how you came to that conclusion right now!

>>5556759
Try conducting basic arithmetic without it.

>>5556765
By the way, I arrived at that by reading Bertrand Russel's The Principles of Mathematics :^)

>>5556765
I can, it is quite easy.
>>5556775
Dear God, why are you reading that? It was so wrong about everything. L

>'objective' is only possible when numerous subjectives are taken for granted.
Is this remark of yours supposed to somehow undermine the notion of objectivity? The day we managed to agree upon certain things of how the world stands, the notion of objectivity was born. Giving a semantic analysis of 'objective' and claiming, rightly, that it's just synonymous with "consensus about certain criteria among a certain group of people" doesn't make it something else entirely (i.e. not objective or less objective)...

>>5556742
Oh yeah? What do you disagree with in specific?

>>5556788
>What do you disagree with in specific?
I was actually being serious. That answer seems pretty fair and accurately answers all of the questions asked. I said that because all of these continential vs. analytical threads are 'hurr durr meaningless bs vs hurr durr autistic logic puzzles!!'.

The variable under which academic groups of interest brand schools, in order to have some sort of epistemic preeminence.

They're people who try to explain their world to other people.

>>5556788

do you know any modern analytical "sociologist", like otto neurath from the vienna circle, but contemporary ?

>>5556840
Not a sociologist, but Searle has written a book on
social reality and its structure.

Analytic is the rational department store, where every item of stock is cataloged, carefully selected, and there is beautiful logical order.

Continental is the disheveled, unorganized ragamuffin, who sets up a shack by the side of the road to sell his assortment of snake oils and potions.

>>5556864
But not a single analytic philosopher can use or repair or build those item because all he does is catalog them and talk about how logically placed they are.

Russel failed. Gödel destroyed his little British fuccboi ass.

Dawkins isn't continental or analytic but I would imagine he would take an interest in analytic philosophy

The Greeks were somewhere in-between, in the days before philosophy focused primarily on meta-philosophy and philosophy based on mathematics.

>>5556738
I've never seen an analytic make a clear argument.

>>5557426
⇒Dawkins isn't continental or analytic

What kind of philosopher is he?
