why do we always have to have the need to compare them or make them compete with each other, its fucking stupid..both schools are valid approaches to dealing with the various problems of philosophy
this sort of weird primal need to always make everything a competition is quite odd, especially coming from many politically left thinking people on this board
its like if some idiot said "Yeah well Einstein was good, but was he better than Darwin"
its autist level bullshit
It all comes from not being able to respect each other and, to an extent, yourself.
Both have their issues, analytical philosophers often are autists and continentals often wrap up bullshit in flowery language.
Because tribalism. It's why 4chan hates reddit, repubs hate dems, etc. It's this retarded reptilian-brain compulsion that most people are way too mentally cucked to recognize in themselves

Analytic philosophy isn't even real.
>>8732038
only the continental argument is valid, thus, as usual, analystic philosophers triumph.
>>8730256
Because analytic philosophy is not only much older, it's based on logical, unemotional thinking. Approaching truth is only obtained by comparing and contrasting facts. If there was no objective truth, no objective facts, then philosophy and science would be completely irrelevant.

This is why no one takes you guys srsly
Get a grip
>>8732102
>objective facts

Gotta push dichotomies if you want to sell print media
>>8730256
Because this board is an echo chamber that leans disproportionately continental and continentals have some strange victim complex where they believe they're always under attack when they're really just regurgitating the same meaningless attacks on analytic "autism". You can't have a serious discussion on here about the philosophy of logic or the philosophy of science or analytic metaphysics because not one buttblasted child here has actually read anything
>>8730256
Because continental philosophy is not only easier to write, it's easier to read.
It's tougher to read continental in a analytic way though, that's mainly because continental philosophy literature beats around the bush and tries to obscure propositions.
Philosophy should not be about obscuring, it should be about illuminating. Why not then present your philosophy in the most concise, and logical manner possible?
I believe it is because they are afraid of fallacy, and someone smart who can think for themselves will deconstruct what they are saying if they didn't hide it all in continental bullshit.
people don't see the value of nuance.

this. how can continental fags even keep trying? all analytic philosophers are worlds above any continental philosopher in terms of intellect and clarity of thought. There is basically no justification to taking the path of continental other than a lower IQ.
