Oh no she sat down with a foreign autocrat 🙄 Wait until you hear about Trudeau applauding a ukranian nazi in parliament and Biden receiving nethanyahu, a war criminal wanted by the ICC in Washington.

I think you could shoot everyone that owns a F-X50 and it would be a net positive for the earth

This ressource carried me through my BA It's like wikipedia for philosophy but made by actual professors, they know all about the nuances and implications of the texts.

Its almost impossible to "get" most of these authors if you don't have a massive dose of context (which mostly means reading a ton of other texts to understand the ideological context of the philosopher you're reading) and this page helps a lot with it.

If you want to be linear, start with the presocratics (the poem of Parmenides is a great start as it poses the ontological problem or being/non being that is still around today), then Socrates-Plato-Aristotle, then you got the boring medieval part with Aquinas and Augustine. Then it's Descartes, Kant, Hume, Locke for the modern philosophy period (Idealism/Empiricism) it pretty much ends with Hegel.

From Kant on there's what we call the Analytic/Continental split and you'll notice that we are heavily slanted towards the analytic tradition here in the anglo-saxon part of the west. Frege, Wittgenstein and Russel would be analytic philosophers whereas Nietzsche, Foucault and Sartre would be on the other side.

Hope that helps if you got questions lmk.

I know, I just finished reading and I was like... Thats it? It took him 8 months to come up with that half assed "both sides" bullcrap. Lost a lot of respect for these guys who posed as anti genocide warriors when it was time to talk about armenia or muh tiananmen square, but now that you've got notoriety to lose or are afraid of being boycotted by producers suddenly the world is all nuance and vibes. Fucking liberals.

Has Serj Tankian said something about the genocide yet? I was following him a while ago and he was completely silent about it and most of his posts had comments being like wtf, this is your whole shtick.
