Bella's Dilemmas
Philosophy has become inaccessible and alienating to the average thinker. Academic writing often sends readers down a rabbit hole of unfamiliar words and theories just to understand a single, dense sentence. Its deterring! Doing philosophy shouldn’t feel like you need to be in a “special club.”
Bella's Dilemmas aims to cut through the noise and get back to the heart of the question - the ESSENCE of the dilemma, not just the intricacies of it.
Nobody should miss out on thinking just because the question hasnt been presented accessibly.
Also, I'm a philosophy grad student at the University of Chicago! 😊
Thank you for thinking with me !
