About

Philosophy without Bullshit aims to:

(1) translate academic—especially analytic (not continental)—philosophy into simple, profane English with minimal jargon, so that people without formal training in philosophy (and the author himself) can actually understand what the hell is going on.

By doing this, it also aims to:

(2) debunk the popular misconception that philosophy is just people talking nonsense.

To accomplish this, the blog avoids unnecessary jargon and oversized words whenever possible. Think of it as philosophy taught by someone who actually knows what they’re doing—but isn’t afraid to swear, joke, and say things plainly.

This is not dumbed-down philosophy. It’s the same ideas… just without the bullshit.
