Philosophy: Under some circumstances, we may investigate the question, that the notion of whether it "works" is relative to a given sociocultural context, but that we may be justified in believing that it does anyway. Maybe.

Well it might result in people tweeting useful concepts from philosophy papers that cause people to go "omg I needed this word". You know, hypothetically.

I've also been reading a lot of phenomenology as part of my general project to unfuck my brain and found that super useful too. Don't get me wrong, a lot of philosophy is garbage, but there's some good shit in there too.

my point is that 'does philosophy work' is a philosophical question that needs more philosophy

Does it? People seemed to be able to answer the question "Did this help me?" without philosophising about it.

Iunno. You're the one who seems to want to do philosophy for the question. Big philo false flag operation? If a pill helps my literal headache, I don't ask "Ah but what do I *mean* by help?". If philosophy helps a metaphorical headache, why should I ask it then?

i guess bc philosophy directs itself to questions of meaning and headache pills solve headaches
