that’s bonkers. “philosophers and other wordcels” not only insults Borges but the entire world of philosophy. the arrogance and the nonsense in that phrasing are both off the charts.

Because western philosophy is not a place where you can find arrogant nonsense, right? Philosophers are some of the most arrogant people I've ever met. And I say that with great affection.

Both can be true

It’s internet youth culture bleeding into highbrow discourse.

An suitably brain rotted riposte to your complaints would be something like

‘Wordcels be sneething at rotationmaxxing shapechads’

and an image of a badly drawn wojak figure.

take a joke man jeez
