No Self, No God, No Clue: David Hume and the Joy of Destroying Everything is your ruthlessly sarcastic crash course in the philosophy of David Hume-history's most cheerful intellectual arsonist. This is the man who read 2,000 years of human thought and said, You don't actually know anything, your morality is just feelings, causality is a lie, and you don't exist. Have a great day. In this wildly bitter, hysterically sharp takedown of Enlightenment optimism, Sophia Blackwell (author of I Think, Therefore I'm Wrong and Why Did That Happen?) guides you through:
- Hume's obsession with impressions and ideas (aka Your brain is faking it)
- His complete annihilation of cause and effect (Just because the sun rose yesterday...)
- The revelation that you have no self, just a slideshow of mood swings
- His polite-but-lethal evisceration of religion, miracles, and divine nonsense
- Why ethics is just your emotional nausea dressed up as virtue
- And how Hume managed to ruin the entire Enlightenment without raising his voice once
