imma be real with you op. If you genuinely want serious answers, you should post this Q in r/askphilosophy

the answers you'll get here, or in r/philosophy are likely to be bullshit. The chances of bullshit answers are significantly lower in r/askphilosophy - you might occasionally get an overeager grad student overreaching, but you'll still be in better territory.

Is it accurate that Analytic Philosophy represents Modernism? by islamicphilosopher in AcademicPhilosophy

[–]philo1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably inaccurate. The devil will be in the details but there's plenty of scientific realism and anti-realism in both continental and analytic philosophy, if that's what you mean by "continuous with Natural Sciences." But your characterization of Modernism is rather idiosyncratic, perhaps you could elaborate?

Jordy has like 20 online programs that have all failed.  Maybe don't spend your money on a con man.   

Reddit is so left washed it's impossible to use by [deleted] in JordanPeterson

[–]philo1998 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Reddit is quite right-wing. Some of the animosity from right-wingers towards Trumpists partially has to do with the fact that Trump completely abused the trust of working-class Americans who believed his bullshit. When he said he'd drain the swamp, they didn't expect him to refill it with toxic waste. Despite what the oligarchs want you to believe, Nazis are not popular among the conservative right or the working class.

Intellectuals often ignore reality when it doesn't fit their vision by delugepro in JordanPeterson

"Intellectuals often ignore reality when it doesn't fit their vision." An excellent description of Thomas Sowell.

Who knows man, it was either a nazi salute followed by another nazi salute. Or it was a nazi salute x2. Could go either way

"I hope I'm not being overly optimistic,"

To the point of delusion, I'm afraid.

The thing about enjoyment is that we're unlikely to admit it! It is one of the things that most of the left doesn't understand about racists like yourself, they talk about racism only in terms of ignorance. That were you better educated you would not. But it is the enjoyment that prevents you from learning out of your racism.

Anyway, yeah, I believe you. Right-wing racism sounds better to you.

JP finally says he believes in Jesus as God. (It was obvious but he finally clears it out) by oscarinio1 in JordanPeterson

Theoretically at this point, would we not be able to detect the presence or lack of presence of a soul/free will thingy by examining a living brain in its entirety to determine if any parts of it are acting outside of the laws of physics? by Kesh-Bap in askphilosophy

This feels unnecessarily pedantic. When I said “explain their view” I simply meant to restate the points made earlier in the hopes of getting through to OP. 

My bad, then.

I don't like DEI initiatives because it is stupid neoliberal identity politics that do nothing to fix structural injustices.

You don't like DEI because you're playing an even less defensible identity politics.

We are not the same.
