Philosophy, by it's nature..and by definition, is "about" anything. Anything you can think about, philosophy is about that. But, lets put a pin in that. Tell me how, in your mind, scientists aren't doing philosophy.

................? The KC Cole book, good book...but, if you wanted to, rather than making blankent statements about philosophy in ignorance, you could just google the journals. I know you have the internet.
We've reached the point where I don't think that you're competently arguing your point anymore, you're incompetently asking me for references. Those references were there, and available to you, before the conversation began.
Philosophy is not what you think it is. Most Philosophers™ aren't doing the Bad Thing™ you think they are. Your objections have been addressed directly and at length, examples that evade those objections have been offered. You need a reset.
You are wrong. Full stop.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
