Just me or is philosophy actually a complete shitshow? When I was younger I really wanted to major in philosophy because I thought it was "learning to think real good about abstract stuff", but eventually found out it was "quoting other famous people's stuff at each other"

i get this feeling of being like... constipated and angry at the same time when around people who've gone through any formal philosophy, you can't get through a single idea without them dropping eight different philosophers on you, and im just like YES BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK

If you *independently generate the same thing a famous philosopher has generated*, shouldn't that be freakin dope, not cringe? And who tf cares who was the first human to both think of it and get famous for it, the point is the ideas themselves.
