Who's your favorite philosopher? Fyodor Dostoyevsky and Adam Smith for me.

I'm very philosophical, but I don't read philosophy (much) because I don't believe others can think about a given subject better than I can. And when I disagree with them it's frustrating because i have no way to argue back at them or to the public. But from what I'm familiar with, I like Noam Chomsky (Zizek is kinda cool too) and, though he's technically considered more of a psychologist than a philosopher, I'm gonna say Carl Jung.

Iā€™ve always thought philosophers were self-absorbed, patronising pseuds who need to get a proper job. (I am the least philosophical person you will ever meet.)

I'm interested in existentialism, so probably guys like Camus and Sartre...I really liked Candide, but I don't know much about Voltaire outside of it...but he's interesting as well

I want to name a few that i like: Thomas Nagel, David Hume, Friedrich Nietzsche, Sam Harris, Ludwig Wittgenstein, David Chalmers
