How advanced do you think philosophy could be today if it wasn't fucked up by Plato and Aristotle? Seriously, these fuckers held down western thought for millennia with their stupidity. Just look at the fucking problem of universals or the conception of the christian god. Without Plato and Aristotle we could have actually gained knowledge in philosophy instead.

>t. assmad Sophist
Sophists were just teachers, brah, not dedicated philosophers. Their entire selling point was to make their students more virtuous, but there's no example of one of their students being virtuous or outstanding in character.

>I wish philosophy hadn't been held back by the complete failure of moral realism, rooted in doctrines that encourage us to ignore this existence in favor of an otherworldly fiction.
OP is absolutely right to consider Plato and Aristotle to have dug philosophy into a hole.
