doing what exactly?

Stop making these threads, dear

Your brain does do funny things to trick you into obeying and staying small, true.

I've been attacked on /lit/ before for saying this but only ever consuming philosophy and constantly reading about the structure of thought, language, arguments, semantics, whatever, doesn't really make you smart, just good at arguing. True intellectuals are the guys who have mastered an actual field of study, a fucking mushroom enthusiast is smarter than any Nietzsche fag

Hmm you probly right. Maybe discussing too much irl is the problem, should view it more as a science you learn little by little without being self aggrandizing, at least at first.
