was it common back then to have spiders as pets? were they exotic spiders like tarantulas?

My dude, Spinoza used to pit house spiders against each other in a battle to the death. Where, as the legend goes, he would be highly amused and would laugh maniacally. Doubtful Kant had any past time as based as that.

>According to Colerus, an early biographer, Spinoza liked to amuse himself by transferring a spider he had caught into a rival spider’s web, pitting them against each other in mortal combat. Another variation was throwing a fly or two into the mix. These insect battles reportedly made Spinoza roar with laughter. He also enjoyed examining his insect finds under a microscope.
Based! (PBUH)

Bless you fellow Spinozian. Spinoza dismantled the concept of 'free will' whilst simultaneously proving that all knowledge and understanding derives from the substance. Absolutely based and redpilled.

Yeah, those retards are dumb but let’s keep this thread on the topic of Spinozemon battles rather than mentally ill e-celebs. Do you think he had bracketed tournaments testing numerous spiders?

Even in his philosophy, so against the judeo-christian poisoning of the rational spirit, you can still see the semitic disdain for animals and the idea that man should rule as he wishes upon them. It is only with Schopenhauer that we were given a philosophical basis for universal compassion.

Lol bruh his concept of nature dismantles this semitic criticism. He believed in the natural power of intelligence, and thus animals fall below humans

Spinoza, it wasn't religious piety that influenced that hierarchical structure. You misinterpreted him

[Anonymous No.17431671]

>>17431617
From his metaphysical framework, universal compassion is a natural consequence, and him not doing that is because of his jewish upbringing. Whatever mental gymnastic he utilised is not important. Don't get me wrong, Spinoza is one of my favourite philosophers, but his thought was to a degree influencer by semitism

[Anonymous No.17431742]

>>17431671
I'm pretty sure he was relating universal compassion directly with mental capacity, and the interplay between the levels of empathy inherently instilled in humans. The division between man and animal doesn't strictly have to be dismissed due to his semetic background. These divisions can exist without that, and from where the original throught sprouted from is beside the point

I must admit, I too have fed spiders by placing flies into their webs.
Occasionally I have been able to capture a big fat bluebottle, turn it into a nugget by removing its wings and legs, and feed it to a spider a quarter of its size, by placing it in the spider's web (one which a bluebottle would usually be able to break free from had it still had wings and legs).
You know how some scummy youtubers have filmed themselves giving fat wads of cash to homeless people so they can inflate their ego over helping the person?
That's basically the mentality I have, I like thinking about how the spider reacts when it discovers it has so much food.

[Anonymous No.17434410]

>>17434377
Nice. I used to stun mosquitoes with a slap (without killing them), pluck their wings before they recovered, and throw them in spider webs or ant hills. I loved watching them struggle against impossible odds. Ants were particularly ruthless, as they would pull and tear the mosquito apart from its legs as if it were a rack.

sad when you place your mind in theirs. so many fights to the death are bearable if there's hope of release.

Nothing says he didn't pet the victors free, this anon was just speculating. Personally I'd presume he would have let free/kept the victorious arachnids as a systematic choice.
