Pocket Philosophy Happens In My Friendship

Have you ever heard of Pocket Philosophy. If not, I will briefly review the philosophy of this one.

In my opinion Pocket Philosophy is a philosophy that tries to be deep, but only looks wise. In today's generation There are many people who have such a vague understanding of philosophy, and science that everything they say sounds like they took it out of their pocket. This philosophy is not developed enough to reflect any aspect of the material world today.

Let us review, An example of pocket philosophy is when I say, "politics is bad, corrupt and inhuman, therefore it does not have a good image and is unnecessary for society," In that expression I have practiced what I call "pocket philosophy".

The first and most important characteristic of pocket philosophy is Idealism. It ignores material conditions, and is formed only on motives, ideas, obscurity, generally creates emptiness and has no solid reason in one's understanding of the material world.

However, my experience has shown that this type of philosophy not only ignores objectivity, but goes further and has no objectivity at all. Pocket philosophers often do not research, or feel the need to criticize material conditions mercilessly, therefore they always begin their analysis with a love for an object, or an idea that is taught to them by society, which in this case is capitalist society itself. This often leads to a more extreme form of pocket philosophy, I might call it absolute pocket philosophy, when pocket philosophers do all they can to alter the basics of a person's words to fit the views derived from their world, and only analyze speech. original when it became a last resort. Without knowing anything beforehand.

Let me continue. Another characteristic of pocket philosophy and, most importantly, what distinguishes it from other types of Idealism is that pocket philosophy only affects those who are new to philosophy. The target is beginners.

From this we can see that this mentality affects many people around us. For example. There are many people who say things like:

  • "The Nazis didn't give up, they were defeated."

  • “Communism never works, look at the number of murders.”

  • “Feminism only wants to replace men with women as oppressors.”

  • “A true revolutionary never advocates violence.”

  • "The state is corrupt by nature."

  • "The Rothschilds paid Marx to create Communism"

All of this has absolutely no objectivity. Therefore, we condemn them as pocket philosophy.

This mentality needs to be mercilessly criticized, and crushed in order for one to adopt a revolutionary mindset and take a revolutionary path.
