Philosophers seem to be almost exclusively unable to understand the difference between talking Around a subject and talking About it. If you're discussing what other philosophers thought, ideas that can't be verified by logic, etc. you're just not getting to the point. If philosophy was an extended conversation forever, as most academics would have us believe, that would be just cause for filling the gaps with every possible related thing. That is not the position we find ourselves in. There is an answer to Every question, no less those apparently inscrutable ones in philosophy.
The purpose of life in generic terms is to change things. The purpose of all knowledge is actionable certainty. The purpose of all philosophy is to obtain knowledge. Philosophy is not a sitcom to sit back and enjoy, it's the most important, most pragmatically useful subject in the entire universe. Let's stop wasting all those syllables and get to the point.
