Plato is on a distinguished road
Default philosophy is a sick joke

after just one year doing my philosophy degree i have come to suspect that it's possible to make ANY viewpoint sound good. it's possible to believe in just about anything.... i mean seriously, to highlight what is possible for an open minded person: just this year i've been a materialist, a dualist, an idealist, a buddhist, a hindu, a daoist, a sophist, a platonist, an aristotelian, an atheist, a christian. i've seen the truth of subjective reality, i've seen the truth of objective reality. i've been a communist and i've been a capitalist.
it's disgusting. my brain is in turmoil!
i used to believe in common sense. dear me.
now i think i am an ironist. it's all just language games. i am a nietzschean in as much a sense as one can be A.K.A. create your own values, create your own world.

i think i'm going to create a website discussing just what a load of B.S. this quest for truth is.
