I have a question (but it's just a little off topic). On Hume's view, since aposteriori implies a judgment by experience, and since analytic statements imply a necessity for experience, could we say that the statement "All analytic statements are aposteriori" is a tautological, analytic statement? If we may say that, is there something funny about this?

[drjasonjcampbell]

@freetaught Hume wouldn't agree with the claim that all analytic statements are aposteriori. For him, analytic claims are apriori.

But one must still experience the fact of making the claim of an "a priori analytic". Therefore claims to be synthetic a priori is impossible as they prohibit the experience of the making of the claim.

I thought 'Fork' was spelt Foek for ages because of the way you wrote your capital R! Love these videos.

Best channel I've found on yt for some time. Some of the points you make I feel like are almost hitting, but not quite. Hopefully if I watch more things will start to click.
