As much as I grow tired of philosophy that is layered in centuries of not even arguments, but like systems and methods of discourse of a few dudes that you need to be a graduate student to parse... if this is the alternative, we'll, it's obvious why we continually need to validate "philosophy" as a valuable endeavor.

Although, of course, if one were to successfully do just that, it'd put people in the philosophy industrial complex out of work so maybe that's the unspoken rule???
