For anyone who is a vaporwave enthusiast, I highly recommend playing a game called Broken Reality. It's a pixelated game where you, the player, interact with a 3D online chatroom that's plagued by viruses, and by greed. So, wielding a cyber-katana from an old web-guru, you can slice through viruses and collect likes as points to level up. It's a really clever and intriguing video game exploring the overall design and esoteric themes of the Vaporwave genre.

    @Still a Youth I discern in you a well-read individual who quite likely comes from a background of reading philosophy, and is thus accustomed to strict employment of language and terminology, so as to facilitate the employment of Reason and Logic upon that language. I studied mathematics, so I am familiar with this style of writing myself, but as mentioned in the introductory disclaimers, I try not to get too bogged down in that here, mostly because I trust people on Agora pretty much universally have an inkling (or a vast view) of what the problem later delineated is, and that we all intuitively point at and attempt to grab it under different labels. In such circumstances, what might seem like sloppy (or more charitably, "poetic") employment of language may actually serve to reduce obfuscation, through repetition and varied example under different nomenclature (though I made no attempt to repeat myself in the work).

    Do you really need to read primary texts to be well versed in philosophy or can you just rely on second hand information

    Idk i studied history before i figured i like philosophy so it was already ingraines in my to read primary texts. Secondary texts are usually sufficent for general understandings but some would go as far as to say you dont even truly understand a philosopher unless you read them in their native language

    I mean... you can, but it's like trying to build a house on top of shoddy foundations. It might be fine, or the cracks in your initial understanding may lead to enormous wastes of time and confusion.

    Although, in fairness, I will probably only ever rely on whatever other people tell me Kant is saying.

    Primary texts are superior generally for more than just a quick look over the topic to see if you're interested, even more so if its a language you dont natively speak (such as Latin)

    At that point you're trying to tap into a niche that's inhabited by like 5 people
