      Yeah, Husserl too. I think reading about Game Theory had the same effect

      Which Husserl? I read Pure Phenomenology and it didn't seem too bad for philosophy.

    Melmoth the Wanderer. I liked it but holy shit Maturin lays it on heavy sometimes. The characters are just so mentally broken it's difficult to comprehend the maze of emotions and religious torment.

    Gödel, Escher, Bach got me at about the midpoint, I wasn't completely filtered but I was definitely struggling to get to the next Achilles and Tortoise interlude.

    I get filtered by mathematical stuff generally but IQfy doesn't consider this as worthy of intellectual consideration as Joyce's 800 pagers about fart sniffing.

    I have been legitimately been filtered by philosophy - I've been reading Wittgenstein for years, and I'm still just slowly progressing, there's definitely places where Kierkegaard loses me, etc. But the truth is that a lot of philosophers a) aren't saying that much, and b) are saying it really badly, so I think a lot of people feeling "filtered" is assuming there is some great depth that they are too midwit to understand, when it's often written that way deliberately to create that impression, and this style is thebstandard in academic philosophy and "critical" humanities disciplines. Euclid is more worth your time.
