Quote:Down with the assassins of Philosophy!

Philosophy is supposed to be the intellectual vanguard. It is synonymous with revolution, humanism, and rebellion.

Those who are thinking about and fighting for a much better world, using their brains as weapons, are true philosophers.

Those who are collecting dust and tenures in some profit-oriented institutions of higher ‘learning’ are definitely not, even if they have hundreds of diplomas and stamps all over their walls and foreheads!

They do not create and do not lead. They do not even teach! They are muzzling knowledge. To quote Fanon: “Everything can be explained to the people, on the single condition that you want them to understand.” But “they” don’t want people to understand; they really don’t…

And one more thing: the great thoughts of Fanon and Sartre, of Gramsci and Mao, Guevara and Galeano should be gently washed, undusted and exhibited again, free of all those choking ‘analyses’ and comparisons compiled by toxic pro-establishment thinkers.

There is nothing to add to the writing of maverick revolutionary philosophers. Hands off their work! Let them speak! Editions without prefaces and introductions, please! The greatest works of philosophy were written with heart, blood and passion! No interpretation is needed. Even a child can understand.

the Greek plagiarists did not know what they were talking about because they did not not do what they were talking about.  what the Greeks were talking about is what they africans did and taught them something about.  whatever ever else the Greeks said they stole from the africans and did the best they could with it.

today read the critiques of the Greeks and you will see what happened why they are complex and ultimately said little.

modern white supremacist society is also in there with a hand in the nonsense...claiming the for Greece/Greeks all of what the africans did so they can trace their modern white nonsense back to the oldest possible 'civilization' they had Greece.  so in their domination of the world they made everything flow from Greece which is a pile of nonsense

but proper modern philosophy has been very simple as the author mentioned..Fanon, Chompsky, Sartre.  anyone can understand them...even if at times honest interpreters may be needed...or can help ordinary people get started

one of the most ridiculous Greek accreditation I have seen is the assigning of the discovery of the precession of the equinoxes to one Hippparchus or some sort of Greek name and person.

what the!!!!!

how does a 2k year old society 'discover' a 26 thousand year cycle and build into it what we call the zodiac... from the Greek..a modern language ::confused:: ::confused:: ::confused::

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hipparchus


nutten incidental about it.  he was accredited the presession by modern scholarship as a theft from the black world by the white one
