I don't think you get what I mean. Philosophy, at the most fundamental level, is arbitrary and based on nothing, so deciding which one you want to go along with ultimately comes down to whim.

>> No.6354454

Plato, because the dialogues aren't a way of "dictating" anything or assuming to know the truth about the world but just demonstrate people trying to think through things.

Wittgenstein, because Tractatus spoofs how fucking absurd tautologies are.

Derrida, because he honestly questions the function of language and its ability to declare anything meaningful.

Basically, I like philosophers who don't pretend to have the world or the nature of knowledge systematically figured out.

But Plato does this, friend. Read his later dialogues, like Timaeus.
