If all philosophical schools had honest slogans, what would they be?

 

  • Nihilism: Life is pointless.
  • Existentialism: Life is pointless but at least you know it.
  • Logical Positivism: Life sucks but mathematics loves me.
  • Hedonism: Life is pointless but at least I’m not sober.
  • Stoicism: Life is awful. So what.
  • Marxism: Life would be way better if we killed those rich people.
  • Feminism: Men are the source of all our problems.
  • Romanticism: Civilization is the source of all our problems.
  • Rationalism: It’ll probably all look better in the morning.
  • Relativism: There are probably people whose lives are worse than mine.
  • Idealism: There’s no way this sh*t can be real.
  • Solipsism: Only I exist anyway.
  • Skepticism: Do I even exist?
  • Cynicism: Who cares anyway?
  • Materialism: We only have to get through seventy or eighty years.
  • Dualism: After we die, everything will be much better.
  • Postmodernism: I spit on your so-called “reality”.
  • Platonism: Life sucks but spheres are perfect.
  • Pragmatism: Probably just best to get on with it.
