Yeah if only those Hegelians and Marxists had some sort of iterative philosophical framework that moved between theory and practice to inductively arrive at a conclusion.

    Holy shit:

    Liam Kofi Bright is a British philosopher of science who is an assistant professor or lecturer in the department of philosophy, logic, and scientific method at the London School of Economics and Political Science. He works primarily on formal social epistemology, particularly the social epistemology of science

    But my baby-brained understanding of "utilitarianism" says communism is good, yet I don't think Mr London School of Imperialism Apologia agrees with it.

    Yes, indeed. But saying you know shit about epistemology and then masterfully show how shit you are at it makes me wonder why even say you are good at epistemology specifically to begin with.

    Why not just: "Yeah I do the philosophies and let me tell you bombing the third world if anglo pigs don't get enough treats is good and ethical and very philosophy"

    I mean, the most likely thing is that he is the most typical kind of anti-marxist, an anti-marxist that has never actually read Marx.

    I've read them (Hayek is better tbh) and I've even had the sobering experience of reading Rand ("Imagine a person who fled the USSR before they could make them fully literate try and explain Nietzsche as explained by half understood letters from his Nazi Sister")

    They're possibly useful in triggering deeper thought though.

    Am not reading "let poor people die" apologia. I don't want to "debate" what must be silenced with rifles.

    They are all court jesters of pedophile lizards, usually pedophiles themselves, or just insufferable chinless white nerds at best.
