i think the point of that phrase is that you can only know that you exist. due to the fact that i can only really truly interact with my own thoughts

Descartes said that because he was unsure of anything, including the existence of "we", except that he had thoughts. Doesn't promote anything actually

Decartes just means that the only thing you can be certain of, is that if you think, then you are. You can make no other assumption with certainty besides that one.

That is not what was he was saying at all. He was saying the only thing we can truly know is real is our existence. Any other person could be in theory a dream or a simulation etc.

Descartes wasn’t talking about morality at all. He was questioning his own existence. Nothing to do with comparative value or importance.

Do thoughts actually need a thinker? Do we create thoughts or do we just find them?

And neuroscience says something like "it thinks therefore I was" which is terrifying

I doubt I think therefore I am.
the doubt is the observation. The proof of consciousness in articulated language. Thoughts are not consciousness,thoughts are objects you observe with your awareness

That’s not at all what Descartes is saying. It’s metaphysics not politics.

Descartes mention of “I” is secondary. His primary notion is that we are self existent. It is the first time we hear of any kind of inner consciousness. Ubuntu is not antithetical to this.

That is not at all what Descartes was saying, that’s not even within the same realm of philosophy.

Descartes didn't say "I think therefore I am", obviously he couldn't speak English

Not even close to what Descartes ever said that’s a huge stretch

No Descartes was saying the only certain truth you can have is that you have the ability to doubt your existence, everything else’s can be questioned and can never be known as surety

Tommy Curry writes on Africana Philosophy and Black Philosophy. His work is phenomenal, destabilized my understanding of philosophical framework and its connection to European thought systems.
