>threads with genuine discussions of philosophy with people who seem to have more than a cursory knowledge of it
what the fuck? This only occurred on /lit/ about once a year. was /fit/ ultimately better educated and more well read?
>>29649
lit is showing off because all the topless men really get them going
>>29779
literally no one on /lit/ knows philosophy besides names and wikipedia
I don't think most of /lit/ actually reads anything other than fiction, and even that infrequently
>>29779
You caught me. /fit/ is actually filled with willing ears to listen instead of shitpost so I'm actually making an effort and not being an asshole for today.
>>29649
what threads
>>29649
/fit/ here. Got my bachelor's in philosophy.
muh "man and his symbols"
- Carl Jung
most of /fit/ is /pol/
>>30378
if that's true it'd be very funny. /lit/ and /pol/ have been fighting at loggerheads for years now
>>30532
fit is where you go once pol shows you what must be done.
>>30547
Very true
Refine and perfect yourself to become the best human your body can make possible
With the greatness you hold, bring up those around you and together create a great people
With those great people, create a government that will bring prosperity and be known as the greatest nation

and still come back to imageboards? come on, the first thing to improve is your attention span and this site absolutely decimates it
>>29649
Merging the boards seems to have blown away the chaff. We should keep it, or at least create an /si/
/fit/ didn't start with the greeks
/fit/ ARE the greeks
>>30283
How long until you have to burn it to keep yourself warm?
>>29649
God damn she made some great videos

true stoicism requires discarding any ideology as a whole

I only read philosophy and I read about 1-2 hours a day. I've been doing this for a year.
>>32851
>Greek meme ideology
Philosophy has been so much more developed since then.
>>32897
>i only read philosophy 2.0
>you probably haven't heard about it
>my almonds are more activated than yours

Favourite philosopher/movement?

Take a look at this faggot with enlightenment-era ideals of progress and evolution
>>29649
I understand that my knowledge is useless unless I can pass at least some of it on.
At heart, I think a great deal of /lit/ wishes to teach. In the circlejerk of one-upsmanship, that becomes impossible, however. There is no kairos.
With the infusion of /fit/, /lit/ briefly became a kairotic space. Ideas were exchanged between eager, charged participants.
Frankly, I don't think there's any particular synergy between /fit/ and /lit/ -- it could have worked with just about any board that isn't a total cesspool. Heck, maybe even mlp would have sparked some good discussion, and the rest of 4chin would be making even more fun of us.

Until she got /fit/ and lost that little bit of thickness that made her special.
>>29864
I read at least one philosophical book per year, one semi-philosophical and some articles now and then while having basic knowledge of philosophy I got in highschool (2 years, 4 intense hours per week
>>29649
well, reading doesn't make you smart
thinking does
and thinking about what you do/learn/read does even more-so
but reading non stop and never looking back really doesn't help

Take a look at this faggot with past-century ideas of Freud and psychoanalysis
>>34539
Peek a gander at this faggot thinking Lacan's primary contributions are commentary on Freud and psychoanalysis
