>ect 9 In Conversation with Ray Brassier

>ect explores why philosophers are compelled to try to understand the social reality of which philosophy is a part

“To really distinguish the ideal and the real is to understand how they are distinguished in practice, and not in thought – in what we do, and not in what we represent ourselves as doing.”

“A philosophy that doesn’t try to understand social reality – that doesn’t try to understand its own connection to a world that wasn’t created to be philosophisable – is not being done seriously.”
