I can get what he means. If no one knows more about existance than anybody else who has ever lived, then what the fuck are these jackoffs going to say that would possibly be that fucking enlightening.
>I don't have the fucking answers man, live in a fucking shed by a lake ayyy lmao

These fuckers just sound like anybody who has ever taken drugs with a heaping dose of narcissism.
>>28977508
I find the concept interesting, though. With which I mean having your philosophy be as pure and free from the influence of others as possible. A bit like the pre-socratics whose undertaking it often, subconsciously or not, was to excerpt their innermost being, that is their being and not the being of others.

Hmm, you imply that I am uneducated but observing your poorly thought-out and written replies has my wondering if it is a poor attempt at a good rusing. I have read most of each works stated here, but I have the choice to agree with whoever I want and no one is worth or even up to par to my framework. You all may choose to believe whatever you want but most likely it is wrong.

No human being exists without being influenced by the thoughts of others. You are inculcated into the thought-frames of society the moment you're able to follow simple commands, learn words, etc. Parents, education, entertainment, etc.
It's a romantic notion. But it requires the philosophical disposition, a sharp enough intellect, the capacity to feel genuinely, the courage to actually live by what you say, and the depth of spirit to judge correctly. These things we inherit in any extent from the great minds of the past, from our wise elders, etc.
"I don't let others influence my thinking" means "I do not know nor am I interested in, the meaning of philosophy/being a philosopher."

I am a big fan of ancient philosophy. I particularly enjoy Plato and the (Neo-)Platonists. Also, if pseudonymous religious philosophy counts then my favorite philosopher has to be Hermes Trismegistus.

Yeah, aside from being an abnormal weirdo, he jacked off in public, slept in jars, broke every social taboo openly, he had way too much perseverance and disregard for the opinion of others to be a robot, if anything he's what robots aspire to be, free from the shackles of polite society.
>>28977459
Dumb, using the ideas of others to help shape your own is wise, for others have much experience and wisdom. That's not to say parrot everything they believe like a 101 philosophy student, but just take it in and see if it makes you feel any different or changes your perspective.

Well, they also lived long, difficult lives, rife with challenges that most modern people only read about, men who were particularly well educated.
They are a head and shoulder and then some more qualified to give life advice than most people.

My grandpa is a 6'3 giant, settled in life, hates his wife, and only real advice is cut your damn hair you look like a girl. Some people don't have people in life with such a breadth of experience, in fact most people. So Ill stick to pretentious wisemen of years past.

Holy shit, robots have actual taste I'm astounded.
How do I start with reading philosophy?
>only 2 people mention Arthur Schopenhauer
As for the loneliness and the degradation of women Schopenhauer is the top robot philosopher
Diogenes comes in second for our disdain for society.
There are quite a few that fit but these are the most popular among robots.

Yeah, you do. Maybe you think you don't, but you do.
You're the product of your genetics and conditioning. You WILL get conditioned by other human beings if you live on this earth, surrounded by other human beings.
>>28977527
Fuck yes.
Mine has to be Spinoza though.

Spinoza was a fat neckbeard living in his parent's basement. That's why he chose to not believe in free will, so he would have an excuse for being a lazy useless failure!I am being facetious
>>28977825
Alan Watts is eh, but JS Mill is literal scum. Kant destroyed him before he was even writing.
Nietzsche anyone? cmmon faggots, he was the true ubermensch
>>28982533
I believe in free will even.
I just think his monism is groundbreaking. He basically destroyed Cartesian dualism.
>no one posted Stirner
Nice spooks faggots
I only read about Ancient Greece philosophers, but i liked Socrates because he agrees with me that people do evil because they don't know what good is, that doing evil pollutes the soul/mind.
Epicurean philosophy pretty much matches up with my views to a T
Stefan Molyneux, the greatest philosopher of all time is my favorite, but Diogenes is a close second.
Stirner, although I'm not as well-versed in philosophy as I'd like to be at present.
It's unfortunate that Stirner became a meme. He really does have some great advice for living, but everybody just hears the word "spook" and they go ape shit.
>>28977372
Heraclitus
Epicurus
Machiavelli
Spinoza
Nietzsche
These are the guys who had their shit figured out.
>>28984554
Machiavelli is kind of a moralfag though, unless you take his ineffective advice literally.

>>28977645
The very thought you can live without being influenced by ideology *sniff* in this day in age is cool, but misguided. Unless you live as a wanderer of sorts, it's very likely your views will just end up being influenced and given to you by your parents, home, schools and environment.
