A place to appreciate the twentieth century comic character Everett True of "The Outbursts of Everett True." Feel free to check out the sticky.
miss girl really threw a potato at him then told him to brinf it back im crying
Get that potato and bring it back here to me
I recognize that domestic abuse is no laughing matter whichever are the genders involved but this cannot be anything but hilarious to me
Everett is so double sided he literally complained some other time that he grew up when every woman dressed ultra modestly and now he wants the skirts to be longer like sir your childhood dreams are coming true in this moment
It really highlights the dichotomy of "wisdom": Truly wise decisions go towards an axiom of some sort, and do their damnest to not corrupt that axiom.
Faux wisdom is nothing more than bitching about something annoying or that has changed. The arguments can sound identical, but one is pushing towards a moral axiom, and one is pushing towards a convenient result.
It's a bit further of an abstraction MLK Jr's quote: "True peace is not merely the absence of tension, but the presence of justice."
True wisdom is not merely pointing out something negative, but being able to accurately describe how changing the negative thing would improve the situation, from experience (not assumed experience, but actual experience).
Yes, that does mean some people are "wise" in evil ways, but to think there are no "wise" conclusions that are still negative in a larger framing is to fail to understand perspective.
If only everyone trading in faux wisdom got hit with a potato!
