Is there anything more useless and impractical than philosophy? I think it's funny that philosophy majors think they're "intellectuals." It's just a waste of time and fedoracore.

Everyone alive today lives in a country that borrows from the principles of Rousseau or Marx.

Hardly impractical imo

>Generals signal the death of a board.
The "death" of /lit/ came when the contingents from /pol/, [r9k], and /b/ showed up. Your idea of "board death" isn't universal by any stretch.
>The only general should be questions that don't deserve their own thread.
But that's 95% of what philosophy threads are.
