I'm not reading him because he was already refuted by technocapital self-commoditization (hyperpbuh)
>Philosophy has an affinity with despotism, due to its predilection for Platonic-fascist top-down solutions that always screw up viciously. Schizoanalysis works differently. It avoids Ideas, and sticks to diagrams: networking software for accessing bodies without organs. BWOs, machinic singularities, or tractor fields emerge through the combination of parts with (rather than into) their whole; arranging composite individuations in a virtual/ actual circuit. They are additive rather than substitutive, and immanent rather than transcendent: executed by functional complexes of currents, switches, and loops, caught in scaling reverberations, and fleeing through intercommunications, from the level of the integrated planetary system to that of atomic assemblages. Multiplicities captured by singularities interconnect as desiring-machines; dissipating entropy by dissociating flows, and recycling their machinism as self-assembling chronogenic circuitry.

This, what is the point of it being a dialogue if the interlocutors never once call out Socrates's bullshit.

I've actually been reading him, but I am unable to accept all the non-sensical arguments Socrates puts forth.

For example - Socrates on the opposition of soul and body.

>For example, when the body is hot and thirsty does not the soul incline us against drinking? And when the body is hungry against eating? And this is only one instance out of ten thousand of the opposition of the soul to the things of the body.

>Very true

What the fuck is he talking about? I can't stand these meaningless arguments. I think this semen slurping Greek just ain't for me.

>> No.15121485

>>15121403
it's too late to stop oceanic self-actualising process of dilation, brother (hyperpbuy)

>> No.15121500

>>15121436
Some of his are very good like the dialogue about what is courage and its relation to intelligence which was really thought provoking but many of them are just retarded.

He mocked them in one Tweet. It was something like "do you suport body modification" and he replied something like "it can't actually change your gender."
