What a nonsensical comment.
> All you're doing here is endorsing sophistry over knowledge.
What? First, sophistry, has little to do with anything I wrote. Second, I'm most certainly endorsing knowledge.
> There's a place for logic and there's a place for facts.
Really? Do you have little slots for them on your spice rack? Logic and facts are the fabric of reality. This a comment I'd expect from someone desperately wanting to be right despite being pathologically wrong.
> Focusing on one over the other leads to persons being so "open-minded" that their brain falls out.
How was I focusing on one? Logic and facts are complimentary, and even if you somehow exclusively focused on one, how would that lead to extreme open-mindedness? And how is being open-minded bad? (You are also misusing the "being so open-minded their brain falls out" quote which is meant to meant to convey that you should be open-minded [good] but not foolishly accepting of poorly formulated ideas [bad]) What do you even mean by this comment? It is nonsense.
I think you read my comment, self identify as a hipster or "bullshitter", had an emotional response of wanting to retort and instead wrote a post that illustrated one of my points.
- illuminate 14y ago"I think you read my comment, self identify as a hipster or 'bullshitter'" Excuse me? You need to stop projecting your insecurities outward, if you're making statements like- "Finding information is mainstream now, and all the pseudo intellectuals are crying because their power base of personally invented knowledge is crumbling and they lack the mental faculties to think freely on a higher level and reason for themselves" Claiming you're a free thinker" and implying that others are "mainstream hipster sheeple" (or whatever pejorative of choice) does not endear you to others. Sure, there are lazy people, however your bizarre sense of superiority about all those OTHER bullshitters is not self-justifying.
