RE: Debating Relativism and the Social Construction of Truth

in #truth7 years ago

I am shocked to discover that those who purport to study philosophy can be so casually dismissive of objective truth! If there is no objective truth, then these "philosophers" expend hours performing mental masturbation in their classes and theses. What a waste of human life . . .

That is one of the best formulations of the problem I have read to date. And yes, having sat in some of the seminars where this was en vogue, the objective was not to love wisdom, but to be loved for virtue-signaling while pretending to pursue truth.
