“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”Isaac Asimov, 1980Just as true today. Only more pervasive.

@Debradelai Disagreeing with so-called “knowledge” does not equal ignorance. There was a time when disagreeing with an orthodoxy led to truth. It used to be called the scientific method. People were burned at the stake for disagreeing with orthodoxy or forced to drink hemlock.

@Debradelai What's he saying? You mean men can't give birth and have babies. Follow the science people. He was just some right-wing Nazi using his white privilege talking points.

@Debradelai Ignorance is often combined with arrogance, and wisdom with humility.

@karnage The cult of "humility" and "meekness" and calling intelligence and wisdom "arrogance" is what got us to this point.There is no virtue in cowardice, misery and submission. There is no virtue in ignorance.

@Debradelai Loved Asimov during his I, Robot days, the Foundation stuff got too pro intellectual/centralized control imho same as the machine learning dweebs that think we can create artificial intelligence beyond model based algorithms.The cult pendulum swings in all directions and I have disdain for over educated intellectuals that start to smell their own farts without ever working a day in their life. Just my 2 cents...

@Debradelai Ok Saul, I said that I hate arrogant intellectuals not intellect.I find what passes for education these days requires following leftist cult worship more than intellect.You’re obviously an intelligent man, but the defensive posture of all intellectuals, most of whom are self righteous blowhards is unbecoming. I never cleaned toilets but I have more respect for a good janitor than the intellectuals in the Ag Biotech industry that Work for me so save your snide generalizations

Thanks for the platform, sorry that my analysis of Asimov’s later writings was poorly communicated in that you felt threatened as an intellectual. I will now fuck off and act more like my mentor Thomas by simply not engaging or buttering your bread as you put it...

@StealthWictor Little cowardly shit. You thought if you did not tag me I would not see you, troll?I actually don't think much of Asimov's, moron.But definitely think less of Conspiracy livers filling toots with words they do not understand while raising the flag of ignorance and hatred.I will make sure you fuck off, troll.
