I am learning the business side of western philosophy for a college class and I can already tell I hate Immanuel Kant, John Stuart Mill, and basically every Greek philosopher.

Edit: To clarify things, I do not hate all of Western philosophy like Karl Marx just the more mainstream parts which are being taught in American academia.

This is a vent post and I was using hyperbole and being dramatic. I am sorry for the confusion.

    Descartes is typically interpreted as claiming that there are actually two fundamental substances: the material and immaterial, often framed as “mind & body”. This is called “Cartesian Dualism”. How they supposedly interact is less clear.
