Philosophy i think is the same question and message repeated in each era in the language of that era. (Modern lingo and memes and such)

The question is “what’s the point”.

Philosophies that get overly powerful turn into religions. Original questioning rooted in science (refusal to look away from reality) can become dogma. Yin becomes yang and back again.

Dogma, while safe, doesnt evolve and eventually is disconnected from modernity. (Not using the right memes and lingo anymore)

The same message can be right or wrong depending on how it is said and in which cultural era it is said.

A strong belief in having already gotten the point or belief that execution is the only thing left leaves no room for philosophy which is about the wiggle room of constant flux.

The current era is a bit strange in that science itself has become a sort of dogma. “scientism” masquerading as true science is another way of putting it. There’s a belief that certain people, idiots and infidels hold back everyone. The yin blames the yang and so becomes it.
