It really depends on the enlightenment, doesn’t it?

facepalm of enlightenment?

What is enlightenment?

Not a big fan of the Enlightenment, eh?

Enlightenment is basically just being woke on a much larger scale.

does Enlightenment still exist ?

Oh and read the rest of his writings to get a feel for what enlightenment is :)

Weird. Am a big fan, but can't imagine anyone dissing the Enlightenment. Maybe a bit crazy after all?

I intentionally did not disambiguate to see the resulting variance and you totally lived up to it with your options for "the Enlightenment". Thank you for that :)

Yeah, enlightenment, the world would be a better place without it. For example there would be no computers, no internet and no parent comment.

It's the KR to the Enlightenment O.

I don't think enlightenment should be in quotes here. I'm pretty sure this really is the logical conclusion of the ideas in the enlightenment and if we want to move beyond the trouble we have we're going to have to question those.

I was immediately reminded of a wiki page about enlightenment (Immanuel Kant) [0] after reading through the essay, which may an interesting additional reading to some. The English translation of the essay that the wiki page is based on can be found here [1].

So this is how the enlightenment dies.

Isn't Enlightenment a fork of that?

enlightenment and reproduction.

I'm curious if you've read Kant's essay answering what enlightenment is.[1]
