Just watched in your video you don't like stoicism, i'm reading the meditations right now and thought it gives great insight into human consciousness and thought that stoic practices hold a lot of value in trying to be the best person you can be at all times.
Saw your discussion with badbunny on LSF and thought you handled yourself very well, I'm just getting interested in philosophy, is the best way to learn more about philosophical topics to just read as many books as possible or is it necessary to go to school for it? Also I'd love to have conversations about philosophy but I don't have any friends who are interested in those types of conversations
It's concerning that people think he handled himself well, personally. He was talking past her, despite knowing how she was using terms from her perspective, he persisted in asserting his own usages of terms. It was a typical Wittgensteinian semantics problem that happens in pretty much every philosophical disagreement. Also he straight up lied when he suggested that it's common for quantum physicists and academic philosophers to be scientific anti-realists. Philpapers survey shows scientific anti-realism to be around 11-12% of academic philosophers, when scientific realism is 75% of academic philosophers leaning toward or accepting. Seems pretty one-sidedly in opposition to Rem and his ideas in general among his "peers" (which I think is really conceited of an undergrad in the private sector to consider actual philosophers his peers in the philosophy of science). I remember seeing a poll awhile back of scientists in general and it was something like 95% of them being scientific realist, roughly, but that one is tough. I'm sure it gets less certain among quantum physicists, but I doubt the majority are anti-realist, he never cites his claim at all. Seems like lazy anecdotes. He basically walked into a pizza restaurant as a professional sushi chef, and was telling all the staff that were kneading dough that they don't know how to make sushi rice correctly. It was a huge non-sequitur-fest and he showed his extreme lack of maturity in the debate.
If you want to learn about philosophy though, his reading list is pretty good on /r/destiny. www.reddit.com/r/Destiny/comments/928hrg/some_intros_to_philosophy_from_rem_the_rem_guy/ www.reddit.com/r/Destiny/comments/961mhm/good_resources_for_philosophy_from_rem/
I want to say, "Right?" to sound smart. But who/which civilization would you start with? Indian philosophy, Egyptian, or all the way back to the Near East?
In my opinion, reading for 30-50 minutes at a time is enough. There is no need to force yourself to read on for hours unless you actually want to, just read for how ever long you feel like reading, put down the book and continue reading some other time.
hi, can you recommend something that will give me a fair bit of competency in philosophy in most branches. I watched a few debates and am starting to take interest.
1. Less potty mouth. 2. Check your pronunciation of Aristophanes. 3. Milton wasn't a mediaeval poet. 4. Erasmus criticised the Church from within. 5. You really can't dismiss important works as garbage. 6. Pindar was a major poet. 7. Describing Castiglione as a sexist is anachronistic. In any case, he had a dialogue that favoured women.
Anonomous Liz I am afraid I have to disagree with you on this. I would not consider myself to be a Nietzschean, though. Yes, Plato was arguably more influential: he formed the way of our thinking in many ways. But, the Nietzschean would say, that’s not a good thing at all.
Hans Vriend good and bad is subjective unless it comes from an objective source and i didnt feel insulted i was just giving my opinion by the way you should really try out (tahafut al falasifa)incoherence of the philosophers by al ghazali its in my opinion one of the greatest books
Glad to see people have stuff other than just Harry Potter on youtube
The subs at 6:36 lmao,
"I've got a bunch of play-doh here I think again this isn't all my play-doh, I got a bunch more play-doh at home"
Mom: We have Plato at home
6:42 Plato at home
Needless to say, great books.
I'm very jealous right now
Can you do a video for each of the shelves please.
Lattimore is the only way. Also, Aristotle and Aquinas absolutely need love.
The quality content I subscribed for :-)
Wheres the manga and doujins
🤮
Mangas are cool

What are your strategies for reading? I get absolutely fatigued after 20 pages or so (30-50 minutes of reading).
Akrylic just read 4HEad LOOOOOOOOOL
Set a reasonable goal and read in short bursts. A chapter, break, second chapter, break, ect. Consistency is really important, too.
In my opinion, reading for 30-50 minutes at a time is enough. There is no need to force yourself to read on for hours unless you actually want to, just read for how ever long you feel like reading, put down the book and continue reading some other time.

sh our secret no doxx.
Anyways yeah my first podcast, or my subreddit posts on destiny (have a couple).
lol sure buddy, thanks ill check it out
Bertrand Russell's 'a history of Western philosophy' is a great place to start with western philosophy.
K N A W L E D G E
second shelf please
Coming your way!
Do you not like Aristotle?
1. Less potty mouth.
2. Check your pronunciation of Aristophanes.
3. Milton wasn't a mediaeval poet.
4. Erasmus criticised the Church from within.
5. You really can't dismiss important works as garbage.
6. Pindar was a major poet.
7. Describing Castiglione as a sexist is anachronistic. In any case, he had a dialogue that favoured women.
What's wrong with "potty mouth"
You sound like Scott Thompson.
You: Praising Plato.
Nietzschean: Starts laughing.
Hans Vriend nietz is nothing compared to plato,aristotle,ibn sina,al ghazali

Worst camera handling.
I watched the movie prometheus, but couldn't find much philosophy in it... ha... ha... ha :-)
How are you so rich
If he's been reading philosophy since he was 14 is this really that much more money?
@@lymmy9609 yeah, so have I. I don't even have a quarter of the books he has.
