Great job, academic philosophers. It’s Kathleen Stock, again. She’s been saying this garbage for almost ten years about trans people. Philosophers immediately rushed to her defence. Now she’s doing it about gays and lesbians. You bear responsibility for this.

Talking yesterday about how difficult it is to get Philosophy grants funded on interdisciplinary panels. A wants to cure cancer. B to decipher ancient manuscripts. C to preserve the rain forest. The philosopher wants to show that two other philosophers are wrong about the mind-body problem.

I mean, on the one hand, wannabe philosophers have been doing this shit since at least ancient Greece, but on the other, I really enjoy blaming Immanuel Kant, so I’ll allow it.

something similar is going on in philosophy rn. everyone is like, 'omg what the hell is going on with AI consciousness/AGI/whatever, help us out philosophers', and so philosophers respond. and then everyone infers that AI is the most important thing in philosophy, which it isn't
