so you basically think that any subject which doesn't lead directly to building something, be it bridges or computer programmes, is entirely worthless? am i misstating ur position here??


YES

If you arent a producer you are a parasite


u make fucking videogames m8. do u categorise urself as a producer? if so i have bad news about your audience and your company's future if everyone became "producers"


Sure. I produce something people want and need. Good times for relaxing so they can get back to their bridge building or whatever with renewed energy. The games are generally also educational.

Artists and musicians are also important producers

no nexus, nutrition is to vegan studies what history and philosophy are to women studies


you seem to be enjoying the employment opportunities that your STEM degree offered you, I look forward to you hiring many WS majors when the time comes to put your money where your mouth is


ps: claiming entertainers are not producers kinda suggests you have no clue what the hell is going on

She was cute, its just that someone should murder whoever took the unflattering and terrible picture

also, for the record, Philosophy generally teaches you several philosophies, not just one point of view - but it should still be banished for being useless. That stuff you can do in your free time.


Philosophy really, at least imo, requires group discussion. For most people I don't think reading a book will give you the full grasp of how someone is thinking. Anyway I'm really glad I did philosophy during my undergrad.

I really don't get how you can say it's useless either. I mean, a decent amount of how western society is today can be sourced back to the original Greek philosophers and the way they thought. What you're saying to me seems like a stone mason in Ancient Greece telling Pluto that he's a parasite on society.

Yeah, but it's like backyard philosophy where people have heard ideas from philosophers but haven't actually read their shit in detail. Don't get me wrong, I do see your point but I don't think I'd be able to say with certainty that it's useless since I don't know the future and the way the formal subject may affect it. p.s: edited my above post

edit: One of the classes pretty much resulted in my first step towards becoming non-religious btw, ironically I mainly argued for the existence of God in that class.

I know you meant this as some witty comment but the answer to your question is many...
Aristotle for example studied at the Platonic academy under Plato, which lasted 916 years and is sometimes referred to as the University of Athens.

Are you seriously comparing the platonic academy to some scrubbers doing a philosophy course.

Lmfao.
