youre either an aristotelian or a platonist and platonism is fucking stupid

That being said, it wasn't as bad in the end. I get it, just don't find the stuff we read from him particularly exciting.

I'd much sooner be myselfist. I don't approach philosophy like that.

Usually gets better when I use their stuff to wind you guys up too, so expect more of that now that I'm doing philosophy again.

Well there's nothing particularly scandalous or surprising about it and his style is often superfluous while failing to make certain key relationships clear, which would be so annoying if he didn't go to so much trouble to write the way he does in the first place, so reading and writing about it is more like a chore than a stimulating mental exercise.

Aristotle was obsessed with the term. wikipedia seems to be lacking on it as well
