Almost universally, the only people publishing stuff are in academia.

The proper way to work in the philosophy field is to pivot and go in a field that can actually use it

The proper way to study philosophy is to philosophize for the sake of it, not to get some job.

Most philosophy PhDs are trying to get a job out of it in academia anyway.

I'm certain that most philosophy PhDs end up in a job outside academia, but I doubt most intend to.

Try to get on that. You can also ask some of the PhD students in the program what it's like and what you would expect.

I dont even have a school picked out yet

They're operating on a false premiss.

They're so caught up wondering why the universe exists that they forgot they haven't started with step 1.

Step 1: define exactly what the word "exist" means.

but then philosophy would be more important than science and we can't have that, right?
