I'm curious what philosophy you've found a use for, and has an impact on your life.
Off hand I don't have an answer for you. Put some forward and maybe I'll tell you.
Got one on:
carpentry, medical/pharmacy (don't give me the do no harm), brick laying/concrete, internal combustion engines, transportation, farming/ranching, electric, plumbing/sewage....
The list of what I consider non philosophy things that directly impact my life are extensive. There might be some overall guiding philosophy(s) that I'm not taking into account, I'm sure capitalism and free market are two but clue me in on others. There may be many others that I benefit from just as you definitely benefit from non philosophy endeavors but give little credit to because I'm convinced you believe they are beneath you.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
