I keep finding that with philosophy or theory books, I find the intro super interesting and then the rest of the book a combination of absolutely impenetrable jargon and excruciatingly detailed debunkings of prior work that I haven't read and means nothing to me. I guess this is why I didn't go to grad school.
@mouse One of my teachers tortured us with Martin Heidegger. Sometimes I think philosophy is somthing like intellectual masturbation. I wonder if there's an english translation of Feyerabend's "Die Torheit der Philosophen" (the foolishness of the philosophers) bookwyrm.social/book/750030/s/die-torheit-der-philosophen
