>claims his thesis is going to be an anti Aristotelian thesis
>thinks that Aristotle is a dualist
Legit fucking retarded. Are we sure his mental breakdown wasn't because he had a brain lesion that impaired his thought processes?

Please don't throw garbage at my post.
Philosophy is dumb I say this as a philosophy major. Toward the end of my degree I had a mental breakdown. Many asked me if the degree caused the breakdown. Few asked if the nascent instability caused the degree. Anyway, what i've realized after coming back from insanity is tht sanity is hard to recognize and harder to come by unless it comes easy. Most philosophy majors are mildly insane. Few have any serious grasp of the canon. Everyone who thinks they have some big thesis and is not a humble historian is megalomaniacal. Ever philosophical breakthrough is a regression in new and unnecessary verbiage.

It's okay I forgive you. My real anger is directed at Pirsig for strawmanning aristotle.

Honestly Sophie's World, the YA philosophical novel, is 10x better than this. At least I'm learning a tiny bit about motorcycles.

you're not wrong, but you're basically wittgenstein before he went to war.

This book is the definition of pseud philosophy. I hated it.
