That's kind of the thing - I don't really know enough to know what to ask for, haha. Maybe I'm looking for more of a survey to get a lay of the land? I've read a little bit of "leftist theory" (the manifesto, conquest of bread, some essays by bookchin), but I'm also interested in more general works/ideas... Ethics, philosophy of mind, ontology, the human condition (you know, the basics). Idk. Get some insight into what smart people thought about life and humanity. These names stick out in my mind: Nietzche, Kant, Sartre, Hegel, Hume. But yeah I guess the problem is I don't know what I don't know...
And also yeah that list ^ exposes my bias for what I have in mind when I think "philosophy" - western mostly enlightenment era thinkers.... So also if there are some good resources for getting into non-western thinking, that would be much appreciated too.
