Because you haven’t read Locke, Royce, James, Peirce, Santayana, and Whitehead, i.e. because you’re a faggot. Go fuck yourself

Not to mention that Carnap and Kant, the progenitors of “bugman” philosophy that people associate with anglos, were both Germans as well, and Kant only gets a pass from these people because he wows them with his verbose style. As always people who want to dismiss any significant philosophers are easily identifiable as the worst kind of pseuds.

You didn’t understand the Greeks or Berkeley at all, probably because you didn’t read them

Bergson is the only French philosopher who influenced him, and the Bergsonisms in Whitehead are far fewer than you think. I suppose that William James pre-emptively ripped off Bergson before ever reading him seeing as how similarly anti-rationalistic their philosophies are? And Whitehead must have pre-emptively ripped off deleuze even though it was Whitehead who influenced Deleuze.
