I personally think that if he wasn't ugly, the entirety of his philosophy would be different.

>> No.18568244

>>18568232
Of course it would be. Schopenhauer is the original incel, the entire axis of his life is him not getting action.

I don't think he was ugly, just a bitter, unlikable misanthrope - which is also the case for a lot of incels.

Fuck off you sex centered cretins, you haven't read him. He wasn't an incel, he was celibate for higher reasons. Not that you would understand.

>1831: Living in Berlin, Schopenhauer thinks once again of getting married. He turns his attentions to Flora Weiss, a beautiful, spirited girl who has just turned 17. During a boating party, in an attempt to charm her, he smiles and offers her a bunch of white grapes. Flora later confides in her diary: "I didn't want them. I felt revolted because old Schopenhauer had touched them, and so I let them slide, quite gently, into the water behind me." Schopenhauer leaves Berlin in a hurry. "Life has no genuine intrinsic worth, but is kept in motion merely by want and illusion."

HOLY COPE

"Life has no genuine intrinsic worth, but is kept in motion merely by want and illusion." He oberseved his own actions (like Hamlet) and made the connection, more honest than most who just judge others but not themselves.

Schopenhauer, unlike Nietzsche, had women. Also, unlike french philosophers like Derrida, these women were not his students. But I can see this thread is about calling people incels. Really great guys, wow, I am so impressed.

Based on Safranski I would say he was not an Incel (like you). However, because of his bad relationship with his mother, the understanding of women was hard for him. Moreover, his sister was indeed the real femcel of the family. Please read before criticizing

Yeah, because the entirety of Schopenhauer's epistemology is derived from the fact that he couldn't get laid. On the Fourfold Root of the Principle of Sufficient Reason
is an incel manifesto, despite the fact that for multiple pages, he talks about eyeballs and retina. You got him, /lit/.

>Life has no genuine intrinsic worth, but is kept in motion merely by want and illusion
Gotta love when midwit's parade this quote around, completely devoid of context. You're aware his father committed suicide right? He had a horrible relationship with his mother and stepfather, all whilst he was being completely ignored in academia for decades before a major breakthrough a couple of years before he died. He has all the reasons in the world to be a bitter cunt.
