*Sniff... sniff*
Smell that? OH MAH GAWD! Do you SEE that!?
Quickly, squash it before it spreads! I'd recognize that subtle, insidious din of almost-science and potentially-rational discourse anywhere! It's practically flaunting itself from beneath those majestic mountains of bored pronouns, sweeping generalizations and universal ignorance - as if it still had a welcome role in human perceptions. Hah! Fear not. No simple idea could ever pose any real threat to this particular status quo, no matter what "reality" has to say about it. Pffbt!
Self-knowledge; what the hell is that, really? —bunch of hippie bullshit, obviously; government conspiracy theories planted to generate hope. Phooey! For me, nothing quite compares to these luxurious—virtual—smells, sights and sounds of—very real—bass-ackwards idiots clashing with self-righteous nincompoops on the battlefields of in(s?)anity, with each side clamoring for its sovereign and exclusive right to lord its own very special version of unremarkable stupidity over the poor denizens of the greater intellectual vacuum. Truly, this, here, represents the bastion of human achievement in all its wondrous gloriosity!
So, hold those pseudoknowledge-swords high and shake those e-peens proudly, all ye brave vacuum soldiers! Sure, naysayers will claim that—by any account that might possibly matter anywhere in the universe—you ALL succeed at failing life... and they'd be totally right... but that's no good reason to try to get along. You've invested so much already in whichever (subjective and arbitrary) position you hold dearest to your ego; fight for it to the bitter end! Refuse to open your minds to the possibility of alternative perspectives! Resist the urge to succumb to the tyranny of "reality!"
Please... folks... you can all be heroes. All I'm asking is that you fight, to your very last breath, 'til there's not a single one of you left.
I promise to say something... stirring, in yourrrrrrr... memory.
As always, I will choose my words with utmost deliberation.
*Solemn nod*
