    I have a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy and I found myself loving Russell and Mill because there’s no pompousness to their writing. A lot of philosophers use very flowery language that’s hard to parse, but Russell just gets straight to the point, clear as day.
    In my opinion, philosophy should be written clearly so anyone can understand it (looking at you, Heidegger)
