This is the single most dishonest philophical channel I've ever seen. Everything is turned into hallmark wisdom.
why do they suck capitalism's porky, rotten dick so hard?
>>357957
Because they aren't intellectual so sucking something like marxism doesn't benefit them
People generally like to suck things that benefit them (people who suck harmful things are cücks)

>all of the globes problems can be solved by taking long walks in nature, stopping to think about how nice everyone really is and signing up to one of our 6 week programs.
It's a fucking scam, a clever scam but a scam all the same.
>How do we "manage" X and Y
Absolutely hate this way of describing problems.
>THIS is where hundreds of thousands people get information about History and Philosophy from

yup
What bothers me is their passive aggressive attitude towards modernity and capitalism. It's so fucking trite.

That brings it really to the Point, while they are doing, compared to YouTube standarts not a bad job at giving first Information, its totaly true that they're turning philosophy into sittle degustations to satisfy your special snowflake character. The most ridiculous part is that they refuse the open up a patreon page but instead encourage us to buy those awful books of their website....
>reducing philosophers ideas down to what they want them to be rather than actually analyzing their ideas
>reducing philosophy, literature ect to the level of self-help
Disgusting
>unideological
top kek
I love how they describe Spinoza's ethics as "One of the most beautiful and poetic books ever written" and describe it as a book saying we should all go hang out with tree's and flowers. The whole show is just flowery words and nonsense.

>another person excepts everything about you
Not always. They may just except your appearance, personality, or just your reproductive fluids, etc.
These guys are appealing to the masses.

>reducing philosophy, literature ect to the level of self-help
But that's the point of the channel. Do they advertise themselves as being critics or scholars?

>teach strategies for success with family and girls
>4chan must vigorously attack it
sounds about right.
Are they actually saying anythig that's just straight up wrong, or are they just trying to sell shit? Cause if it's the latter there's a very simple way to get around that.
>>362187
what is "success" with family and girls?
>>362197
???
>>362513
Well, i'm just trying to understand why /his/ doesn't like them exactly, if it cause they're trying to hock bullshit books or because they are genuinely misrepresenting philosopher's views?
>>362513
And of it is the latter, how so?
