the expression is usually a negative statement
"Don't get philosophical on me"
It means I want you to do something, but you start to talk about all the different ways that the action may not be ethical. I do not want you to think, just do it.

Было бы хорошо контекст посмотреть... Саму фразу можно переводить в зависимости от контекста.
