I wanted to share this show that presents overviews of philosophical topics using old school 8-bit graphics:

I haven't watched all yet, but some of them are quite inspiring, like this one about Heidegger and being authentic:

The latest video is about Socrates. If he was a real dude then his power level must have been off the charts:

>NEET master race

>Could stay up all night without feeling tired
>Could drink without getting drunk
>Impervious to heat and cold
>Declared wisest in the world by oracle at delphi
>Not afraid of death

Socrates did not give a fuck

I've heard that Friedrich Nietzsche said all these based things too; there's so much of this stuff I want to read.

You know what's weird is that almost everyone can access all these classic tomes, and commentary, from the phones that almost everyone in the U.S. has now. I live in big city and even poor people have them, even some homeless people. You could read much of what you'd need to get a philosophy degree in a few years of picking up passages incrementally while waiting for and riding buses on you commute. People have access to all this material produced and taught in elite universities and they're playing some mediocre game, gossiping, reading clickbait, or whatever.

Yet it shows you that sometimes, /alpha/ simply involves taking one action rather than the other.

This is why we're all here. To deal with information overload. They should teach similar skills in schools.

Didn't check channel but I doubt there's any Aquinas and that's primary philosophy to check out, not these philosophasters
