Is philosophy dead?
>>
>>1205895
It just changed into most of the academic subfields you see today. Getting a degree in philosophy is shit.
>>
>>1205895
Define philosophy.
>>
>>1206194

Teaching metaphorical bullshit to edgy teens searching for meaning outside their post-modern bubbles.
>>
>>1205895
Nah. Man is dead.
>>
>>1206253
no it is not, your rationality is rusing you
>>
>>1205895
Philosophy is as dead as alchemy but philosophy students would stick to it with all their might because it makes them feel smart,they're pretty much the art students of science.
>>
>>1206210
That was pretty much never done in the anglophone tradition anyway.
>>1205895
No. It's doing pretty well actually

>>1206307

It's not dead, it's just sorely misunderstood, usually as such >>1206210. STEM is important but it doesn't answer the questions philosophy posits.

Neither is dead.

Currently? Yes but it's largely do to the way the subject is taught and treated in academia. It's now at a state that is driven by subjective thinking (mostly built upon emotions), as opposed to logic and reason.
