empirical philosophy is STEM and it does not answer every question, with only empirical 'philosophers' your wisdom will be severely hampered

If what the person says doesn't result in more (nutritious) food in your belly, and a bigger roof over your head, IGNORE THE FUCK OUT OF THEM.

Empiricists can't prove empiricism using the empirical method, so no. Don't be an idiot.

There is nothing more Reddit than being an Empiricist.

At this point I've stopped trying to distinguish between harmful "science" which promotes degeneracy through social engineering, and "good" science which helps us in the long run. It's much more funny to just dab on fedoras by saying you deny science completely. It makes them seethe.

Imagine that your identity is deeply rooted in your conception of yourself as an “””intellectual””” but you’ve been getting BTFO by math/science class since 8th grade. Your only recourse is to conclude they must be fake and gay.

Science btfo itself every hundred years, why the hell should I blindly follow everything? Even then, since when is science even a subsitute for religion or metaphysics? Science literally is knowledge of the physical world, how the fuck are you gonna use science to describe the nonphysical world?
