That's fucking hilarious. Smart people like me already realised that philosophy is for social posturing (I'm the Munchhausen trilemma poster). The hand thing is philosophers becoming aware of it

>>8370993
>The "here is one hand" idea deeply influenced Ludwig Wittgenstein
Amd /lit/izens try to claim him as their pure non analytic husbandu.

>>8370999
nice trips
but Wittgenstein critique Moore. On Certainty was written almost again Moore, taking into account three papers (proof of external word, certainty, and defense of common sense).
It influenced only in the sense that he came to write about certainty because he thought moore was utterly wrong in the argument, although the argument shows how a proof is supposed to look like.

It's the parts he didn't write, which you can't read, that count for the most.

>>8370996
>philosophy is for social posturing
it isn't, but if you don't know why, I'm not taking my time to explain it to U,

>>8370980
The real question is will continental philosophy ever recover from being continental philosophy?

Continental philosophy is easier to get into because there is a sense of emotional intuition that goes along with it (oh, master-slave dialectic, I see that all the time in my real life! Oh, class warfare, I'm poor, that's so me!)

But at the end of the day it is really just that. Emotions expressed in a pseudo-philosophical form. And the reason they hate Analytics is because they have no 'soul' - that is to say, they prefer to avoid emotion in their work.

Continental vs. analytic is about as meaningful a distinction as "sometimes less sometimes more furry dogs, cats and some red pandas vs. totally furry cats with stripes and stuff".

>>8371066

Analytical philosophy is for pseudo-mathematicians who are too retarded for the real thing.

>>8371076
>red pandas
Badphilfags need to stop believing they're welcome here.

>>8371085
Then what does that make continental philosophy??

>>8371104

Feels.

So we have pseudo-mathematics, and feels.

Choose neither.

>>8371085

Actually, I'm a pseudo-philosohper who is a real masters student in mathematics.

this

I like both.

Continental philosophy
>Do you ever think that maybe the way we perceive "objects" is relative to our construction of our individual lifeworld? But we seem to agree in many aspects of our different lifeworlds. How do you think this is mediated intersubjectively?

Analytic philosophy
>IF Q<>P THEN [PP]..n1,n2,n3, in all possible worlds "F(1)" F={Q + n}, then in World Σ has no wizards and science is good; therefore, liberal capitalism is correct, and you're not allowed to have feelings. There is no God! Vote Hillary.

I may be a dumb analytic but can I not intuit that 1+1=2 or A ≠ !A

Analytic philosophy is for positivist fags who fell for the objectivity meme

Continental philosophy is for self-help School of Life fags who fell for the meme meme

...which is the paradox I was aiming for :^)

>>8371267
It was probably thinking of ethical or political currents of analytic philosophy.

Enjoy debating the gender of sqrt -1, which is apparently an irrational number according to Lacan.

>>8371274
Analytic philosophy has been moving away from logical positivism for decades now.

You do realize he wrote more after the tractatus right?

Let me ask you fags something, since when did analytic philosophers, or rather FANS OF analytic phil. get it in their head that logic is owned by analytic philosophers and not a basic organon for all philosophers? Every time an anti-continental fag wants to defend his one-sided favoritism he claims analytic philosophy is logic and continental philosophy is apparently the opposite of logic or at least the lack thereof. Logic was literally invented and re-invented and used in a 'continental' philosophical context, by literally continental philosophers. At least continental philsophers know it for what it is, a tool, and not something to hide in so not to have to face the dificult philosophical problems, not something to reduce all philosophy to.

this rather convinces me that analytic philosophy is superior

The pictures are of real trains and train related things. How could you miss this. Btw Stirner would probably be classed as continental, if that wasn't anachronistic.
