Look, I tend to think a lot of analytic philosophy is cringe, but this is basically the definition of sophistry here
- slibhb 6y agoI think it is sophistry when you pass it off as philosophy. I don't think Derrida saw himself as a philosopher though. His disciples on the other hand... Continental philosophers generally fall in line behind Heidegger who said "philosophy ended with Hegel". They saw the philosophical tradition running from the ancient Greeks to Hegel, where it ended, and they wanted to do something different.
