But you don't achieve wisdom by cloistering yourself apart from the out-group to create a neo-intelligentsia that treats theory as scripture and prioritizes only the aesthetics of revolution while ignoring the plight of the uneducated masses as a lost cause. That is the idea I am critical of (not you per se, but the behavior I've seen from a lot of others around the fediverse who care more about tribalism based on nothing more than the instance someone calls home).

I'm just here for a forum, not a soapbox.

Ok, I am also here for some memes, too. Life sucks without laughter.
