I suffer therefore I exist makes more sense than cogito ergo sum
there is no casual link between suming and cogiting, I could sum but not cogit, and I could cogit but not sum
what is undeniable is that suming is suffering and whatever suffering means, we are suffering

How the fuck can you think but not exist? Even if you claim you are not doing the thinking, you are at least experiencing the thought which requires you to exist.

I honestly can't believe a lot of 4chan would be big into the Kant.

Hume however... that guys got the answers.

You can argue all of Kants philosophy with Hume. There are only a few ways you can get around Humes arguments,one is to do what nietzsche did, and that was to become absurd.

Probably no.2 after Kant. You're right that he is razor sharp, and his writing often has an air of unassailable common sense truth about it.

But Kant's philosophy is astoundingly creative by comparison. Copernican turn in metaphysics? Fucking genius man, made all the more impressive by the fact that he was writing in the 18th fucking century.
