Elmo @tim-elmo.bsky.social · 22/09/2026idk, I've seen plenty of philosophers be smug and dismissive about students who think they've found a flaw in a famous view [never mind that the flaws are often real and serious, scholarly copium and epicycles not withstanding], so I think the non-philosophers may be right about us. 250
