Yes, you are entitled to your stupid fucking opinion
It’s just that nobody is compelled to listen to it
And since it’s stupid — nobody will
Nobody will listen to your stupid opinion but a stupid fool like yourself
See where I’m getting now?
Validation and consensus are not signs of validity and worth but of stagnation and mental constraint
We really ought to not search for agreement and recognition
but clarity
Mob is compelling but does it evoke a feeling of CLARITY? Does ideology inspire your soul with truth?
Compelling is not clarity
Conviction is not clarity either
Clarity is direct insight
Consensus is not clarity
Consensus is the end of inquiry
Clarity is perception. An act of enquiring perception. An unending inquiry.
Validation is the death of critical thought
Therefore you’re better of ignoring all validation
As for your clever opinion
I don’t care
And neither should you
What matters it not your opinion, not the opinion itself
What matters is the inquiry
The EXPLORATION
The doubt, the questioning, the investigation
So yes you are entitled to your stupid opinion and your clever opinion
only
what’s the point?
The only thing that matters is whether you’re continuously intelligent, continuously exploring
Opinions, conclusions — are just the by-products
