Philosophical Speculations

Let's make clear again, beloved Europe, that the self-projective imagination of an degenerate imbecille aka "savage" is comes for your layers of class society, how you view your subjects in your aspect of the ruling class and its "rational administrating" fearing and loathing th...

I must confess that I may be defecting to the red team, given that Steiner didn't make it into the All-star World Cup match https://youtu.be/92vV3QGagck I reckon Germany could have had this in the bag if they had made their substitution earlier in the game (and it looks like Socrates was in fact of...

There is a sense in which I just don’t know what to think of Cleric’s framing of things.

The work of Richard Prum might be of interest. Although not an idealist, his book the Evolution of Beauty ( https://www.amazon.com/Evolution-Beauty-Darwins-Forgotten-Theory/dp/0385537212 ) looks at the role of subjective preferences and aesthetic choices in evolution (through the mechanism of sexual...
