That's a tough one, anon-kun. But it truly is a shame.

There's only so much one Buddhist can do against such powerful autism

Why would that be a shame?

The world needs people who actively do shit and live within a society, not pseudo-philosophers who isolate themselves from the rest of humanity and stay passive for all their lives. No female wants to get those genes, which is only natural.

I personally find great joy in humanistic studies and art anon. I often read philosophers, go to museums, art expositions and theatre. I'm actaully in a process of writing a paper about Der Steppenwolf and how it's a great presentation of XXth century bildungsroman like the works of Goethe or Dostoyevsky. Next up I have a work on Neo-platonic themes in Dante Alighieri's poetry. I think it's particularly interesting how he denouces Plato, presenting Aristotle as the father of all philosophy, yet at the same time you can clearly see platonic themes in his later works.

Shame girls don't find this interesting.

>>25539907

This. Active men will always be more attractive than passive men

Oh please. Like the current community is capable of such thinking. Forever doomed to stay ignorant.

The greater shame is these people thought being enlightened by their own intelligence would actually help them instead of making them realize on a deeper level just how patheitc and bitter they are.

>Next up I have a work on Neo-platonic themes in Dante Alighieri's poetry. I think it's particularly interesting how he denouces Plato,

Wut? I'm half way through Inferno and not seeing it.

Aristotle is the father of philosophy despite Plato and some cynics doing more for it. Who was the cynic bordering on stoic who studied under Plato?

I enjoy linguistics, philosophy, and politics, but I'm not arrogant enough to consider myself talented in these fields. I think the average robot isn't even that interested in them to be honest

>>25540056
John Locke. Lost?

>>25540083
>Who was the cynic bordering on stoic who studied under Plato?

Well anon that's a bit broad explanation.

>Wut? I'm half way through Inferno and not seeing it.

Don't worry, inferno is actually the one where the platonic themes are least present. It starts to outline itself in purgatorio and most of it is in paradiso, especially where Dante's love for Beatrice evolved from the courtly tradition of Dolce Stil Nuovo towards platonic love, where his union with Beatrice is what allows him to ascend towards realm of forms, or haeven as we came to see it.

Also pay attention to what Vergilius tells Dante in canto X. He mentions how for his ascent to haeven it's neccessary for him to go through hell first. And while this is more of a result of Plato's influence on christian thought, you can clearly see the paralel, where a man who was stranded in a platonic cave had to make a slow ascent through all the tiers of enlightment, before he was able to contemplate the realm forms.

He claimed to be a cynic but didn't go down the cynic route, rather stayed in power. I've read it a week back and can't place it. Has like 11 works that survived in great condition, he noted a lot on early cynicism.

And cheers for the reply.

>>25540203
I'd love to help you anon, but I have yet to study the works of cynics.

For all anons though, I strongly suggest to read through some XX century literature. Many of it is about men who are practically robots and get to change their lives through some miracle. If anything, at least it wil show you that robots are nothing new in the world and the division between robot/normie was always there.

>>25540234
Any specific works? I've read a few of the intro stuff but I tend to jump from early to late philosophy.

Want to read up on Wittgenstein currently and I jump here and there with no reason.

Really need some guide or plan for this.

Are there really people who'd rather bag on about literary criticism and philosophy instead of something interesting like physics?

>>25540341
Physics is boring and offers nothing in the common mans life.

>>25540286
I strongly suggest Dostoyevsky "Notes from Underground", this book becomes somewhat hilarious if you've been browsing /r9k/ before reading it and understand how you feel when you lose spaghetti in front of a girl. "Der Steppenwulf" is obvious choice, if only to be accustomed with such classic. There's also Faust, although it's not so much about robot, but more about a man who studied a lot and had great knowledge, but because of that he forgot to live his life, also "The Sorrows of Young Werther" if you're up for something depressing.

Physics is boring it however in a smart persons hands can change the world however, a random robot has no use for it because they are busy being moody.
PS philosophy and astronomy were better

>>25540452

I used physics to figure out how long I need to keep the heat on to get the room to the temperature I want.
It came in handy. Physics is good.

You just obsessed with some bygone world bullshit son, how can you be happy simply measuring stars instead without also investigating how they work

>>25540479

>>25540497
My heat doesn't have a dial, it's just on or off.

friendly reminder that philosophy is the last refuge of lonely and broken men

>>25540488
Stars are just giant bubbles of helium that have different stages of life but what interests me about astronomy is not the constellations, or stars, it's the planets that make it up because many things have water on it and I want the day when we reach the edge of our solar system to happen with a manned spacecraft.

>>25540508
Then that's your fault.

>>25540550
It's not a matter of fault. It just is. So I used physics.

>>25540479
Anon physics, like philosophy, have nothing to offer towards the desires of "common man".

And while it could be very useful in the past, like in >>25540497 most people now have no use for physics in their life, as there are many conveniences for us today whcih make knowledge of physics useless.

Thing is anon, studying anything is not for "common man". You study for your own gain, to know something.

(Thales, one of the founders of greek philosophy)

there seems to be a tendency

>>25540678
that greek philosophers were homos?

>>25540713
the greek werent homos in the modern gay parade faggot sense. they just liked to get BJs from teenage boys, and at some point they'd marry and be done with it. it was kind of a rite of passage thing.

i'm not saying it's not homosexuality (or bisexuality rather, usually) but they weren't running around in posh clothes and talking with a lisp, it was just a part of normal life back then.

the no gf thing definitely seems to have been a philosopher thing though.
>telling his mother as a young man that it was too early to marry, and as an older man that it was too late
does that not remind you of when your mother/father/extended family asked you how it's going with the ladies, if you had a gf and you gave some vague bullshit answer? sure reminds me

No you don't, you have a inferiority complex so you tell others that you find philosophy interesting. You want to feel empowered so you scold anon telling him that there are people out there with holes between their legs that also indulge in philosophical works. Yes, there are women that read the works of Plato, and Aristotle. However in reality, if lucky; you read shit tier fiction novels like Girl with the dragon tattoo, the Hunger Games series, and maybe the Da Vinci code. Judging by the way your post was constructed, it appears to me that you haven't even read any book that requires the literacy level beyond the one of the average NFL running-back.
