The Tiktokification of reading has turned reading Dostoevsky into a status symbol for men.

@johnmilbank3 He truly is Great. There is no one like Plato.

[The PartTime Philosopher @PartTimePhilo]

Plato is truly by far the most enjoyable Philosopher to read. Second, is David Hume. The worst are Kant and Aristotle (mainly his Metaphysics).

[The PartTime Philosopher @PartTimePhilo]

@Felix_Romanus I don’t agree with Hume’s conclusions but The Enquiry is very articulate

Holy rightoids, in my comments we've got people praising the genetically superior of Scandinavia and others hating because of "mass migration” of brown people??

[The PartTime Philosopher @PartTimePhilo]

Are the Scandinavian countries just better in every way??

[The PartTime Philosopher @PartTimePhilo]

@sluggh One absorbs it

[The PartTime Philosopher @PartTimePhilo]

@DennisHedegreen No one advocates for their systems so publicly as the Scandinavians. And that’s a good thing.

@ConsCurator How?

[The PartTime Philosopher @PartTimePhilo]

@AlanNWhelan The Problems of Philosophy was the first philosophy book I read cover to cover and it was by far the most accessible and neatly written book I’ve read.

I would comment on Hegel but I’ve not directly read him.

@Zegh8578 All for it

@Siepifh876 Bad news: I love Aristotle I just also think he’s hard to read

[The PartTime Philosopher @PartTimePhilo]

@CendoSK The Enquiry is surprisingly delightful

[The PartTime Philosopher @PartTimePhilo]

@moriah_bridges Gorgias and the rest of the 5 dialogues are the best!! The Republic is great in sections unless you want to commit to the whole thing.

[The PartTime Philosopher @PartTimePhilo]

So, I have a confession. Kant is not the most difficult philosopher I’ve read.

Actually it’s Heidegger. 😳
