Mathematics is logical, So yeah.

Side note: Philosophy past Kant is trash.

STEM fucked philosophy pretty hard, to the point where phil degree holders are just serving coffee to STEMfags.

Philosophy past Nietzsche is trash.

Fun fact: maths used to be a humanity, thank God we came to our senses.

Philosophy already has a bunch of formal types of logic. Can you explain to me, why any math that exceeds high school level would be relevant to philosophy?

>>3260181
There's plenty of shit philosophy before Nietzsche.

And when has a philosopher ever done enough mathematics?

maths requires actual intelligence tho. you brainlets wouldn't be able to handle it

>>3260891
I'm not really sure what you mean but there are many major philosophers that were also great mathematicians, like Leibniz and Descartes.

What I mean is, that nobody in this thread is going to be a new Leibniz or Descartes, and nobody here is going to win a Nobel Prize. There is a place for regular mathematicians and regular philosophers, who know their shit and do a good job.
So, if anyone who came far enough to study philosophy has studied math to a high school level already, and if philosophers don't need to study enough math to become mathematicians, in OP's mind, how much math and what area of it do they have to study in order to be competent philosophers, provided that this thread isn't just underpaid bowl cuts doing the "STEM master race" meme.
