I'm going with a combination of Hobbes, Stirner (not listed on here), Machiavelli, J.S. Mill, and Darwin.

Yes, white - they're all of the europid race

Diogenes, Heidegger, Foucault were all pretty based

I think socrates took sophism to its farthest logical extent and was on the verge of a classical greek postmodernism equivalent. I think it was right that he was executed for such a thing because holy shit look at where un-anchored philosophy has taken us today. I think plato recognized this and that's why his shit searches so hard for solid grounding, and where forms are useful.

just my 2 cents tho

>>2290472

yeah he is, the fat bastard

Can you show me some instances where Evola said feels are greater than reals?

>>2289863
Ayn Rand. Speaking of which, why isn't she on the image?
>>
>>2291455
Because she wasn't famous enough, just like Stirner.

This explains why there's not alot of lolbertarians out there.

Besides if you actually read Rand you'd recollect she described herself as a purification of Aristotle and nothing more.

She is objectively right about the whole "great people need to prop up pathetic parasites" thing, but leftist let their fee fees get in the way of rational thought and just bitch about her while also intentionally taking her thoughts on the evil of altruism out of context in order to egage in strawmen arguments.

how do you call this style of drawing characters?

I take it some of you have read Ayn Rand's non-fiction work. I was thinking about buying it the other day at the book store. How is it?

Not a single one of those are right. In fact, basically everybody on that stupid list is wrong about everything.

Nozick was a libertarian and a pretty good philosopher.

True, you can't have a real list of philosophers without meme man

Not a thing. Caucasian as a racial category includes Middle Easterners, North Africans, and even some Indians. /pol/ can't handle this fact so it invents a new fake category

>only leftists hate her nonsense
it's ass covering bullshit to frame it as morally right to exploit others, be greedy, and frames those who are unlucky and needy as being bad. It's pathetic. The real answer is that morals aren't real so do what you want

She's completely irrelevant. She's to philosophy what E. L. James is to literature.

Who made this degeneracy
>>
>>2294922
Not a mises.org cultist, for starters
>>
>>2294926
Hayek should be there tho
>>
>>2294937
Economics was already professionalized by the time of Hayek, becoming a separate branch of study from philosophy. Same as natural sciences, which is why 20th century scientists aren't there.
>>
>>2294926
Why would it include Hayek who is even LESS of a philosopher then Mises. You can tell just by reading the two that Mises is a better fit. Not really expecting you to read though.
>>
>>2292389
Pfft, all categories are fake aka constructs. Categories are made up abstractions to put messy reality into neat little boxes.

Haploid groups aren't even that accurate at grouping humans.

I would only apply this to philosophy and literature, otherwise a solid decision

>>2298268
Knowledge not necessarily accumulates linearly, but in the case of knowledge about the human psyche and societies it is definitely true anyways.
>>
I'd say Spinoza has one of the better views of humanity. It's not as idealistic as Rousseau, not as pessimistic as Hobbes.
>>
>>2298760
>someone who theorises instead of testing knows more than thousands of phd scholars with combined millions of hours of research

Do you consider logic a science, how much is reason applied?
>>
>>2300999
logic isn't a science it's a tool
>>
>>2301512
The scientific method is derived from logic and is itself a logical process, a tool.
>>
>>2301518
except science is a very specific field that relies on reasoning with empirical information and experimental data

logic doesn't necessarily require either of these

science requires logic but logic is not a science
