Yes, and the discussion of philosophy on lit must pertain to some form of literature, which, frankly, is a stupid fucking rule. Threads like these are more interesting than Ayn Rand thread #3957392758492

I also respect communicating anonymously on a picture board about literature related topics.

You’re sure that’s not just them bent on removal of free speech?

To me an obvious rebuttal would be that to impose restrictions on evil would be to impose restrictions on free will and as such victims like cripples are really fortunate it’s not a world where they would be totally functioning drones. Not that I’m christian.

sorry you didn't like the guy, but that's how intro to philosophy is

it's all the questions we've been asking ourselves since we were 8 years old and normies are just getting introduced to the mindset now that they're adults

but the good thing is, philosophy class will teach you to verbally masturbate with those fun little thoughts if you stick around long enough

If you cannot argue against such dimwits, and really mob the floor with them in such a way that they either spend the next years in libraries reading or just quit uni teaching, why even bother?

When I went to college my first English class primarily consisted of watching movies, and my second English class consisted of writing papers on New York Times opinion columns. I dropped out.

If you argue against something like that then you'll be branded a fascist as well, likely fail the class; possibly reported to campus authorities for hate speech and expelled.

Beat me to it.

kek

True.

I dropped out after they tried to tell me frog posters were all fascists because one Pepe picture had a Nazi uniform. So Pepe was forever a Nazi.

It's horseshit man.

well user there is this thing inside of you that makes you able to act without those actions being caused by anything. yknow, you are influenced by your surroundings but you can CHOOSE how to respond to those. yknow the cause of your action (whatever you perceive, think or feel) goes through this wibbly wobbly souly wouly thing that makes you able to change your own nature so that you react however YOU want.

Free will is logically incoherent. The idea is based on linguistic confusion.

Teachers are genuinely some of the dumbest people that I've interacted with. Maybe it's just that they appear to be the dumbest because they think they know what they're about but either way I have no respect for them. Even Yea Forumss darling Gregory Sadler is completely retarded about all things political and economic. Maybe even philosophy in general too when he's not just teaching from the text.

That's what I mean. Mill spends a whole book arguing that restrictions on speech are impractical. They didn't even try to argue against him, just went with, "but what about hate speech?" Like trained dogs. Not a single page registered with them. First time I realized the npc meme was real, pretty disturbing desu.

You’re literally a parody of a retarded white reactionary.

>Marina Abramobich
This little typo joke falls flat when we have a PM called Brnabic (burn a bitch).

What is it with Bens anyway? It's like the guy that peaked in the late 80s and has become twisted by resintiment, nostalgia and conceit.

I read a bunch of secondary literature/papers on Locke a couple of years back, and all the late 80s/early 90s papers were like this, sophomoric arguments about slavery and his life vs his philosophy. They're making points that aren't exactly totally wrong but require more nuance and thought to apply and are tied to something happening currently.

30year cycle dude.

You can choose to will it, but that does not mean it will happen.

Literally nothing wrong with that

Sociology is what people who couldn't get into Economics because they failed Calculus do. More likely than not, the people who are in it are liberals/SJWs.

Stop larping in my thread faggot

Kek

There literally is though. Institutes of learning are for just that, learning. If I was a parent, I wouldn't want to pay for my daughter's education just so she could get hit on by the loser sleazeball 30 year old teaching one of her classes.

>"are birds real?"
what did your prof mean by this

That's insane considering Mill is usually considered one of the more progressive modern philosophers, jesus fucking christ. Which uni did you go to?

>you can’t learn and suck dick at the same time
Lmao have you ever been to college?

If you can't handle opposing viewpoints, YOU don't belong in a philosophy class, OP.

People like you are the exact reason women shouldn't be allowed to attend higher education institutions.

I think you missed the part about the dick belonging to a "loser sleazeball 30 year old professor". Those types are the worst kind of people. No future, Dunning Kruger suffering faggots, the whole lot of them.

I would be fine with him being a lefty if he wouldn't try to be "le wacky professorxD"
He was trying to be random or some shit

So Sociology isn't treated as a subdiscipline of philosophy?

It sounds like they don't belong either

Harsh passing of judgement bro
>only women suck dick

Is there any point in engaging in trivial sophistries or rhetoricisms in the pursuit of philosophical inquiry?
Wouldn't philosophy turn into little else but a battle between different kinds of amusing fantasies if it were treated that way?

Sociology is treated as the retarded cousin of psychology. Even Anthropology laughs at Sociology. Sociology is the softest science still allowed to be considered a science.

It's usually classified as a social science (often put alongside Political Science or Anthropology), with nothing more in common with the academic discipline of Philosophy than Physics or Art History could be.

Oh, you're a fag? Hmmm, I don't really care then. I would've disowned and disinherited my son by the time he got to college if he was gay so it wouldn't really matter to me.

>I don't use email
I'm yet to have been to a university that doesn't make email mandatory for students, let alone professors. You get an account from them even. I even had to get a new cellphone number to visit china with once. There's no fucking way your prof doesn't have an email.

>only women suck dick
You're doing it wrong. If you really wanna sound like you wanna fit in here, you'd say
>He doesn't give niggas blowjobs to pay for his copies of Aristotle and Nietzsche's complete oeuvres.

Just, asking, in eastern Europe it's a big discussion whether sociology should be more of a social science or society-oriented philosophy on SPSS steroids.

I dropped back in 2010 after three years. Most of my professors were spineless, left-wing faggots. I don't want to know what you poor zoomers have to deal with on campuses these days. Post-secondary education was a mistake.

Everything stems from God, including the demiurge. God is responsible for the demiurge

Regarding free speech.
What would the liberal consensus be about free speech if the world was run by a totalitarian dictator that only gulag'd people convicted of worshiping his personality cult or expressing praise for his leadership?
Speaking hypothetically of course.

What’s primary?

I went to a community college before transferring to a university to finish up my undergrad. in mathematics. I got all my prereqs out of the way in the CC, but I didn't have this experience there that many of you had.
The philosophy classes were great. I was the only white guy, but everyone was engaged and eager to learn. At one point, a black girl went on a tweny minute rant about why a white guy should be allowed to go to school in a KKK robe if he wanted to because freedom of speech. Everyone read the material and everyone treated the authors of the material with respect they deserve - none of this "old white man" crap. It was pretty great.
