i just hate to see that those who are the ones that work with philosophy are the ones that are killing it instead of bringing it forward. they always act so passive aggressive when philosophy is the topic, acting like they know everything about it and everyone else is inferior. going lengths to insult and bring down anyone that doesnt have matching ideas as them and defending an ideology so blindly for some reason. which is exactly what philosophy is against. not to mention how abstract modern philosophy has become, i am not saying academic philosophy shouldnt be any different from "daily philosophy" but the philosophers should at least show some effort to explain what the terms they use mean because without the contextual basis it is just gibberish that you try to make a meaning out of. its like reading a symbolist poem, i dont think this is how philosophy should be: we arent supposed to spend more time deciphering it than to understand it and build upon it. philosophical texts are not supposed to be heavy on literary side. (definitely doesnt mean they cannot be written in that manner, Nietzsche for example is a great writer -in my opinion-) they are just not supposed to be so symbolic that you barely understand anything.
its just like everyone is trying to make philosophy unreachable for everyone (to prove their point or themselves) trying to get into it, and that makes me beyond mad.
