I am learning the business side of western philosophy for a college class and I can already tell I hate Immanuel Kant, John Stuart Mill, and basically every Greek philosopher.

Edit: To clarify things, I do not hate all of Western philosophy like Karl Marx just the more mainstream parts which are being taught in American academia.

This is a vent post and I was using hyperbole and being dramatic. I am sorry for the confusion.

How do you hate western philosophy if the only philosopher you'd read is a western socio-economic political theorist?

    I do not actually hate them, I was venting because I was reading a textbook for a college class on business ethics and I have to learn about a number of Western philosophers although much of the information, I learned previously but forgot about as Western philosophy in the United States seems to be the same philosophers being repeatedly taught over and over again.
