Capharnaüm

This is a blog. I write about things I want to write about - lots of philosophy, some short stories, and stuff I find interesting in general. Read if you enjoy them as well.
Contact: please don't. If you must, I exist on irc.

Blanket statement: I cite many foundational texts in philosophy, history, literature. As all fields, these are rife with examples of abuse and problematic behaviour. You may research someone I cite by name, and find that they have harmed others, and committed reprehensible actions. I refuse to think that acknowledging that someone's theoretical work is impactful requires excusing harmful behaviour. Further, no art, science, technical progress is worth harm to a single person, and I'd rather these works did not exist than anyone was harmed. However, they do exist, and they are interesting and worth engaging with as theoretical works. Something something death of the author, something something ideas are not dependent on the person who happened to write them down, something something single authorship is a lie.
