Is he the greatest amateur philosopher of our day?

>> No.16337530

Is he a Spencer to Taleb's Darwin? That's what I want to know.

>> No.16337542

He's exceptional at describing aspects of the modern condition

>> No.16337562

>>16337530
He made Taleb's concepts relatable to the average college educated urban yuppie, and not only that, but expanded on Taleb's thinking to create a novel philosophy of his own

Idk who Spencer is, but if he did something similar, then I guess so

Paul Skallas, finest philosopher to have come out of internet culture so far. (Though he wouldn't like this description, because he is lindier than the internet).
