“That some position appears intelligent, advanced or insightful is only barely interesting. It is the nature of advanced perspectives to either regularly self-optimize or lead the bearer rapidly to other positions that will.

Those that instead freeze and celebrate their produce, or popularize themselves as excellent and / or necessary too often carry the imprimatur of stubbornly ramified ignorance.

How ironic that these are so regularly discovered to be the bastions of culture, reason, group identity, and ideological insanity.”
