As a Bantu speaking person. you translated Ubuntu perfectly. Ubuntu is simply being human. Ubuntu isn't something you do its just what you are.

Do you think that it makes sense to talk about “African” philosophy? I get that you’re using shorthand here. But I’m curious.

fascinating, i want more of this info also interesting that a linux OS is named ubuntu which makes sense given that it's open source, community driven

I think I might know why this isn't taught in the hyper-individualized, bootstrap bs-ing, competition based capitalist societies of the global north

I've often wondered how our (especially white, western) psyche would be different if we named ourselves based on some other trait like community🧚♂️

Ubuntu is not a general African philosophy- it is a SA & EA body of ethical teachings: Hunhu, Omuntu, Botho - the latter includes empathic leadership

This is super interesting, but I think comparing it to Descartes misses the point of one or both if them.

"I am because we are" vs "I think therefore I am" so interesting to learn the concept of Ubuntu. Beautiful stream of thought, thank you for sharing.

Sounds a bit like the Korean philosophy of Juche, it’s interesting to see how these arise/survive in opposition to Euro imperialism’s opposite values.

In my language we say umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu… that a person is a person because of other people (direct translation). Love it!

1/ If Ubuntu is about “I am because we are”, then it makes sense when I have to go to the forum in search for the WiFi fix because Linux just wants to

are there any concepts from non western philosophical traditions that you heavily vibe with?

also, as a note, ubuntu specifically comes to us from South Africa! I call it a core tenet of communitarianism within African Philosophy because--

“I am because of them” does seem a stronger assertion than “I think therefore I am” since includes the obvious others. Barring brain in a vat.

I actually remember reading about it as a kid in a fairytale - we had a book in USSR of African folk tales translated into Russian (well, we had many.

makes sense, because a human is nothing more than a huge number of cells who decided to share a common consciousness.

I always wondered what my name “Ébuntu” meant. I’m from Cameroon 🇨🇲 and no other person seems to know the origin of my Bantu name and no one else I’ve met has the name except the person I was named after. Can someone please explain it to me?

I have a few questions. Does this concept allow for a priori/innate instinct?

while it's a beautiful concept, I'm not sure if i am because we are is comparable to cogito ergo sum. descartes was talking about how we can confirm+
