proof you can't escape the buffalo curse (even if you move to the other side of the country, it will stalk you like a ghost)

it was shape rotator when husserl did it; it was heidegger's fault it became wordcel

Phenomenology is literally shape rotation but somehow became a wordcel discipline.

people love to pretend every discussion on here is basically a supreme court decision, saying shit like "but saying that would set a dangerous precedent you know" no it won't!!!

The thing about the "can poetry be translated?" discussion is that you can just read it! Translation and the original! Doesn't matter if you speak the language: you can listen to the sounds, you can look the words up, learn the basics of its grammar structure, &you're there

choosing the red button means that the "knowledge you have now" isn't even enough to make the right decision in this case lol

Green button = You instantly receive $2 million (tax free). Red button = You go back in time and restart your life at 10 years of age, with all the knowledge you have today. You can press just once. Which do you press?

green is obviously the correct choice in terms of the financial success aspect that the meme is really about, though I could see choosing red to see old friends again, getting another chance to say the things you should have said, &c

This is such a confused take: obviously you can do good conceptual/formal/logical work without citating empirical data! That also has nothing to do with Cofnas, who is not doing that, and who is explicitly doing work that is making empirical &scientific claims

Replying to @PAHoyeck
Because a significant portion of the Internet is bent on willfully misunderstanding other people, here are the relevant points. The first is simply that you can do very good philosophical work, notably very good conceptual work, without engaging with what anyone else has said. 1/

It seems that the claim here is that it doesn't matter whether Cofnas' understanding of biology is correct, because his arguments would be true *if* his description of the science were true, which, if so, is genuinely world-historic levels of embarrassing copium

Also I'm sorry but Aristotle is such a stupid example to use to make this point. There are so many famous philosophy papers from the last 100 years that could make this point a million times better

a very stupid bit of fallacious reasoning that afflicts many people-who-like-to-think-of-themselves-as-rational is the feeling that if something is offensive it is more likely to be true

it has everything to do with textbook irrationality (reasoning on the basis of a narrative storyline rather than meaningful probabilities). No accident that it overlaps with the Galileo fallacy, since it's basically the same form of mistake

Plato/Socrates actually makes this mistake in the Gorgias, so perhaps all to the point that philosophers are some of its worst &most consistent offenders

you could give yourself an incredibly deep self-study in poetic form just by working out how the sound patterning in the first four lines leads to the breath-taking rhythmic &sonic payoff with the word “familiarly” in the fifth
