I'm probably in the minority, but I consider Wittgenstein an immature philosopher. His Tractatus stuff was important fro model theory in semantics, but was bogged down in solipsism, transcendentalism, and delusions of importance.

>putting plato on your top 10

Plato was boring and barely anything more than a mystic. Aristotle should be number 1

He didnt offer any particular thoughts that were useful. He was a mystic tier pseud. Aristotle actually gave us methods for thought which revolutionized the way we reasoned, aristotlea historical and academic significance is leagues ahead of platos. So much so that plato is mystic tier in comparison. Aristotle was so influential that the persians/ottomans literally just refered to him as "the philosopher".

He definitely is one of the most popular philosophers among normies. It pisses me off because he is a great philosopher and worthy of the attention but everyone misquotes or misinterprets him. It wouldn't be so bad if normies understood what he was saying.

If you didn't know Aristotle was a student of Plato's...

He also acknowledged a great debt to him and took a large of Plato's philosophical agenda and modified it.
