Nice anti-intellectualism you have there.
Christian Bennett
Didn't Kant work with Marx at one point, and become instrumental in the founding of the Frankfurt school?
Lucas Wilson
Paleoconservatism is the only way forward. youtube.com
Jordan Richardson
Easton Reed
Plato, Plotinus, Kierkegaard, and kinda Nietzsche. That's all you need. Oh and of course our wonderful Lord and Saviour Jesus.
Ryder Butler
Bump
Owen Martinez
No.
Does google not work for you?
Isaac Moore
Google says the Frankfurt school drew from the works of Kant, but I guess he wasn't personally involved.
Liam Cox
The cult of progress is the modern abrahamic temple
Easton Long
Cooper Gomez
is a Brave New World a good book to read ?
Logan Carter
conservatism is not an ideology
Samuel Phillips
Josiah Perry
It's alright.
It's pretty bleak but not overly simplified like 1984
Liam Myers
Sebastian Sullivan
Nathaniel Jenkins
Cooper Collins
Eli King
It's one of the best books in my arsenal. It's way more rooted in reality than 1984.
Dominic Sullivan
sure it is, little buddy
Jason Turner
Fuck I hate Kant. Not that hes not important but deontoligical ethics . . . meh
Bentley Green
The interest doesn't lie in the ethics but in the epistemology. The intelectual horizons of our age are still those of the movement of German Idealism he started
Mason Long
Yas Forums could benefit immensely from this
Carter Mitchell
Adrian Murphy
Nathan Howard
Christian Cook
No I agree. Kant was important and seminal. I tend to be more a student of 19th century epistemological responses to Kant, but sure.
Kayden Johnson
tell me where it came from
Bentley Sullivan
What about Marcus Aurelius?
Tyler Wilson
Read it and weep. There is no longer a true Conservative party in america.
Caleb Ross
Jose Rodriguez
there never was. No person with power was ever "gonservative"
John Powell
all my life i read only technical books.
any suggestion?
Jaxon Price
Paleo conservatism falls into the category of ideology. If you can explain why it doesn't I'll believe you. Also why are you being such an autistic faggot arguing over nuanced interpretive schools of thought.
Michael Thompson
Oh that reminds me
Logan Reed
Philosophy is all mental masturbation faggotry, except for the Greeks, and Stirner. Who arguably isn't a philosopher.
Early philosophy dealt with the material world and reached its conclusion with spiritualism and christcuckery as an elaborate cope.
The modern philosophers were basically just self fulfilling prophetics, their theories of the world hold absolutely no weight and rarely approached meaningful truth, but became truth by believing them
Otherwise its mostly mental masturbation/entertainment.
Austin Reyes
Start with the Greeks, the pre-Socratics especially. I like Nietzsche's book on the pre-Socratics called "Philosophy in the Tragic Age of the Greeks" but you could also read like a history of philosophy book, I recommend "The Dream of Reason".
Autists will tell you to read the individual pre-Socratics but its mostly just a bunch of fragments and you'll lose interest very quickly.
