a book (especially a philosophical text) is not an authority to program yourself with, it's a point of view, and should be treated like a one-way conversation. if you sought out somebody's opinion, then cast it aside to chase somebody else's opinion (as you would need to when dealing with the 500+ books you've shilled); while recommending others do the same rather than relaying your own understanding, then you quite literally are nothing more than a blank flesh-construct to have orders and thoughts written upon (or as the kikes like to call them, golem). classical philosophers didn't bookthump each other with weeks of "prerequisite thought" required or appeal to institutional standards. you want to do it like the foundations of philosophy did it? find somebody seemingly articulate and good faith yet opposed to you and pick a fight with them.
