If you classify western philosophers by what they led with, I think it is: Epistemology-first: Spinoza, Descartes, Hume, Kant Ontology-first: Hegel, Marx, Heidegger Phenomenology-first: Nietzche, Husserl, Arendt Treating these as stocks I think E is down, O is up, P is up a lot

Though I've also once been compared to Habermas/Frankfurt school, which is almost the opposite. I've also been simultaneously accused of being a capitalist shill and a communist apologist for the same essay, so go figure :D That's why I don't take comparisons seriously.

All the best positions get that ;) Habermas & FS are v different (basically the latter is Marxist, with an emphasis on the sphere of cultural production as ideological apparatus), be suspicious of anyone bracketing them together.

You might get a lot out of Graham Harman's object-oriented philosophy & Quentin Meillassoux's anti-correlationism (there is a real world out there that we can know thru science/math). Kinda blows up the tired analytic/continental divide.
