I won't read this, I'm super good at philosophy and this article is patently absurd.

This post is quite harsh. It really is. But it's also full of truths. When I was in college, I thought philosophy was horseshit. I was studying theoretical physics--the epitome of things to study, or so I thought. I looked down at philosophy.

Then I read more of it--especially the good stuff--and I realized I was quite wrong. I ended up studying philosophy and logic, and became a professor of philosophy, for over 25 years. Being good at philosophy takes years and years of serious study.
