whoao this really make you think
I was in France last year, everyone there have educated debates about Kant, Hegel, Schopenhauer, metaphysics, astrophysics and philosophy in the subway and cafes.
French is so intellectual that they thinked so hard that they had the biggest ideia in the world:

>>62193099
Whoa, look at this, a monkey with Internet.
>>62193050
It's like when I was in London. Everyone picked up a book to read on the subway, even if they only got time to read for 4 minutes.
Here everyone just stares out the windows or listen to music.
>>62193145
huehuehue
>>62193099
Dubs confirm the truth.
DISCURSIVE REASON IS PREPONDERANT IN THE FRENCH PEOPLE; THEY TEND TO BE OVERLY LOGICAL, VERBAL, AND DIALECTICAL, AT THE EXPENSE OF PROFUNDITY OF FEELING, AND PROFUNDITY OF THOUGHT.
THE FRENCH FOLKSOUL IS IMPAIRED, MERELY DISCURSIVE MIND INHARMONIOUSLY PREPONDERATING OVER BODY, AND SPIRIT.
THE FRENCH FOLKSOUL IGNORES SOFIA WHILST DEVOURING ITS OWN TAIL.

Really? Not even mainstream books or comics?
I use train often to go to big city and I realise that at morning is full of uni students reading books, mostly use still paper books but ebooks are becoming popular. I used eBook because I can get free books.
Now I'm reading Mircea Cartarescu, interesting Romanian postmodernist novelist and poet.

On /int/, Russia is a bydlo peasanty shithole of retarded drunk people while Croatian hipsters marvel the deep Russian soul and it's magnificent cultural and intellectual genius.
In reality, there are degrees of differences between various peoples, but the average person in any country is not an intellectual.

I once had a Serb poster stalk me on 4chan. I wasn't even a namefag or anything, the literally learned how to spot my posts based on my style of writing. This shit lasted for years, before flags even existed on /int/. He even started collecting screenshots of my posts and he'd remind me of things that I said two years ago.
tl;dr there are crazy people on 4chan

>>62195114
Philosophy is not science nor is it attempting to be. It's just philosophy like art is art and religion is religion. Those three along with science and the four pillars of civilisation.

Gosh I had the same situation, but it became worse, he started parroting me and pretending to be me. I'm still posting here very carefull.
Tbh everytime I have lunch with my family we basically always have discussion with my family about politics, philosophy or the latest readings.
Do you do that too or its just me and my family doing unconventional stuff?

I tried once to talk with my mum about politics (during the war in Ukraine), but she's all about jongoism: Muh Russia the best, we dinnuffin wrong. So she isn't interested in politics at all, same with others relatives. They're like living in a parallel universe.

that's the best time of the day how can you skip that. You are seriously missing out honestly.
>>62195429
not really though
epistemology is about the validity of science or rather the possibility of objectivity among other things but that's only one branch

>>62195429
Indeed, I studied philosophy for three years and I had lots of lessons of epistemology, science has rules that it tries to follow because it believes that by following its method it will create pieces of truth. These rules change with time, sometimes they are no applied, sometimes they are very controversial, epistemology, which is, philosophy of science, is here to define what is science and to evaluate the tools and the degrees of truth that science generate.
Maybe there still would be science without philosophy but it would have no value, no ground for legitimacy. And even with this legitimacy science is far from perfect, philosophers have proved time and time again that in the end scientific is subject to relativism as much as other discourses
>>62195669
I told you, he even know how to imitate my posts and post them before I post… I have no idea how can do that.
>>62195669
Imagine the nightmare I passed through while he was changing proxies and calling me names every day under every single post made by me. Might still have a trauma. I hope he found a new victim finally.
>>62195682
Tiens d'ailleurs, pendant qu'on y est : y a-t-il un lien entre Parménide et Descartes à propos de l'Être et de la certitude de son existence ?
Foucault's translated works in English are pretty loftily worded, and I have to digest and linger on single phrases just to get a hint of what he's trying to convey. Is this true for the original French texts?
>>62195762
yeah I think he's known for being a tough read
>>62195762
considering traductions try to get as close as possible to the original text, very certainly
>>62195736
Stop harassing me, you are really sick.
>>62195747
Chez Descartes, je pense donc je suis, puisqu'il est certain que je pense même en appliquant un doûte sceptique, alors il est certain que je suis, puisqu'il n'y a pas de pensée sans être, donc je pense donc je suis est une certitude. Je ne connais pas bien Parménide, mais de ce que je lis sur wiki "Parménide parle de la « force de la certitude ». Il oppose ainsi la logique à l'expérience : la raison est selon lui le critère de la vérité. La pensée, en suivant les règles de la logique, établit ainsi que l'être est." En effet ça se resemble beaucoup il y a des liens à faire. Le fait que la certitude implique la vérité, le fait que puisque la pensée existe, l'être en est déduit.

in true french fashion he made a fine analysis of the copernician paradigm shift and the way the Church fought a rear-guard smearing campaign against astronomers as a whole
more importantly, he is linking this attitude to Voltaire's denunciation of religious obscurantism and allergy to progress
his conclusion is that the true copernician revolution happened in fact a hundred and fifty years later than it is supposed to have taken place because it was so widely fought against as an idea
