"I still don't get it! /wrist" The Transcendental Deduction is one of Kant's most important works where he affirms the value of the sensory in relation to reason. The Indian part is in reference to an awful joke made by Kant in "Critique of Judgment" that he propped up as some sort of exemplar of humor.

5'd for philosophy. The categorical imperative requires no less. It can be universalized as a law applying to all mankind that YTMNDs of such overwhelming brilliance must be 5'd for great justice.

"I couldn't remember which philosopher" - Rather obscure but after looking it up, the Philosopher's Walk in Kyoto, Japan was named for Nishida Kitaro who used to walk the path to meditate.

Wow good ytmnd, I really am a fan of the categorical imperative which was the main tenet of kants moral theory. it is a good rule to live by, with the exception of the barbaric absolutism that may follow from it.

Kants theory is basically deontological, in that it rests on the notion of duty. The arguement is that we should adhere our lives to a strict sense of duty to the moral law. HEDONIC CALCULUS FTW
June 1st, 2006
(0)
"Kants theory is basically deontological" - This is more or less true of all moral theories except those theories that abandon moral codes all together such as Nietzsche's work. Until a theory so compelling as to force man to follow it is formulated all moral code is a matter of duty.

June 1st, 2006
(0)
"I would have rather liked 'lol, hegel'" - Though I like Hegel I chose Kant because he's a more famous name to those who may have only taken introductory Philosophy and because I had the "also Indians" reference that would be funny to someone who didn't know a thing about Kant. I should do a “lol Death of Socrates” YTMND some time later.

Is the YTMND community so uneducated that we upvote anything remotley intellectual? This isn't funny, creative, or really anything but yet another dumb "lol" site.
June 1st, 2006
(0)
"Is the YTMND community" - You're on a meme website. What did you expect? No repetition? The structure of this domain is constructed entirely for the propagation and creation of repetitive variations on central meme forms which, though important, are, by necessity, rare. If you want “originality” go to deviant art, plenty of "original" crap to look at there.

Listen, I read a great deal of philosophy, and even I found this to be mediocre at best. While providing relevant links is certainly helpful, you have to understand that most people won’t take the time to investigate them, except perhaps to confirm that such things actually exist. In addition, it appears you have some insatiable need to respond at length to every meaningless comment and intellectualize the befuddled musings of twelve year olds.
June 1st, 2006
(0)
I realize it likely stems from a genuine desire to educate and enlighten, but it just comes off as pompous and masturbatory. Basically, the site itself is devoid of meaningful content and your attempts at contextualizing the information make it clumsy and ineffective. Creative works are not simply machines by which information is disseminated.

no zer0hue, his intention was to be pompus and masturbatory all along. Psuedo-intellectuals and the internets go hand-in-hand, they think obscure references make them smart. It just so happens that I learned about this guy in Psych class, however the name previously escaped me until I recognized a familiar website we used in class to read about him. And now I remember what he did and this ytmnd makes very little sense. So no need to get involved in any spirited discussion with the creator of this site.

"Listen, I read a great deal of philosophy" - Perhaps you're right, at least on the point of comment reply. I had been awake for too long and replying to comments was something to do; I didn't consider audience reception. I apologize if I've insulted anyone. As for the humor of the site itself I found it a humorous enough idea to go forward with and received some initial positive responses when I first tested it. It's clear enough that some find it funny; that is my audience.

"his intention was to be pompus and masturbatory all along" - No, my intention was to better learn gif animation and to pass my time after being awake for over 24 hours. If you wanted to understand it I've provided (and I grant that the method is clumsy) 3 links for that purpose and a brief explanation in a comment. The sites esoteric nature is fully acknowledged and its randomness is inherent to the "lol internet" form.
