Ok so, is analytic philosophy all pseudo-mathematical garbage, or not? I forgot, can someone remind me again?
Yes.
All analytic philosophers would do well to go back and review Aristotle. Just because a permavirgin claims something is logically consistent does not make it true or (worse) a meaningful analogy.
Now it just more generally means in a methodological sense ordinary language vocabulary and autistically narrow articles of inquiry in an article or book.
Though, I unironically think they have put out the most interesting works on metaphysics and aesthetics in the 21st century so far.

I should screenshot this post and put it on /r/badphilosophy.
I'm not even an analytic, but any first year logic courses (either a critical reasoning or formal logic) in a philosophy department will teach you the difference between logical consistency, truth, and analogy (among many other topics). Pretty sure this is something any philosophy major, who isn't a dumbass, isn't going to mess up by inferring from or conflating these, and says more about your own misconceptions and status signalling about philosophy than anything.

This, only women and non-white people can make logical statements as their authority is one of objective experience

Yes, go back to your containment site. Please and thank you.

What makes you think that about their work on metaphysics and aesthetics? Any philosophers in particular or certain articles of note?

Well since you mix in some notable people with some fairly whos I'm sure plenty of people will find something to take issue with. Should use some first and last names there buddy.
