People who think philosophy is useless know fuck all about philosophy. You can't even make a valid objection against philosophy without being philosophical.

Someone ignorant of agriculture might deduce that "bread comes from the supermarket" in the same way another person might deduce that our notions of justice and ethics come from "common sense."
