Yeah, I know. Breaking news. r/SneerClub informs me that this was par for the course back then and Schopenhauer was better than some. But still holy fuck. This is 1st preface to World. Dude wrote it when he was only 30 years old

The title is 'Goddamn Schopenhauer was a dick' and the screenshot is him saying that Kant is good and translated Sanskrit stuff is good. It feels like you're expressing a incomplete thought.
What's the "this? Building your thought on Kant?
I called it "arrogance" but someone better versed in philosophy corrected me and said it is rather hubris. I just think it's unpleasant whatever it is
It was the hubris of saying the Upanishads could be derived as corollary from his work. The hubris was par for the course
Well you'd've had to be a mindreader to figure that from your post.
Yeah well sorry I had an annotated version of the screenshot and my phone deleted it. Don't have to be a mind-reader: he tagged it as potentially sounding arrogant himself, which I might add is saying a hell of a lot
