It's interesting to think about what was destroyed in its entirety - what if there was some ancient Wittgenstein progenitor who solved philosophy? What if Caesar burned it all to make him shut up?

It would make Aquinas, Descartes and company look pretty silly, working on their various systems not knowing someone had already destroyed metaphysics

This thread wouldn't be complete without a bit of fun at the expense of postmodernists.

Can somebody please explain this nonsense:

jean-baudrillard-the-simulacrum-is-never-that-which-conceals-quote-on-storemypic-68f80.png


Is this just some kind of wordplay on the word true/truth?

Was he?

He's a bit controversial in France these days. He said some weird things about slavery and Jews.

By modern standards he would not be a good dude.

He got rich by using a formula at a casino, basically winning the lottery.

Do you know that before he became a philosopher, Kierkegaard was a very quirky guard?
 
Hmmm. Maybe I'm an Ne user, hehe
