If Twitter is insane then it lends some credibility to my whole "Schizophrenic horde" thing doesn't it? See how that works do you?
Hym "I'm sitting here, thinking to myself, and trying to reconcile Dr. Jeepjorp's position on Twitter. So, Twitter is insane because it doesn't follow the rules of a face to face interaction... Because, in a face to face interaction, the threat of violence would cause people to self-censor and prevent them from saying anything too offensive... But you don't have a right to not be offended... Self-censorship is bad... And using violence in response to words is wrong... And threats of violence are wrong... And if I'm more capable or willing to commit violence I have more of a right to say egregious things (in a might makes right sort of way) because I will 'win' the violent altercation... Hmm 🤔..... There's a lot to unpack there... I might run out of characters... Well, let's see... It sounds like he's trying to reconcile my family's dialect with the behavior of the broader community... Which is hilarious! But you're an idiot. That's not how that works. But that's the second time he's said that (and I'm paraphrasing) 'If your family has a dialect that's incongruent with the collective language then you're insane'... Shit, ok, so how do we define 'insane?' Well, we could take Merriam Webster and say 'Not normal or healthy in mind.' Sure. But what constitutes normal? You know what? I'm running out of space. Ok, hold on, this is going to take a minute... Just... Just gimme a sec, hold on...." 🤔☝️

Get the Twitter mug.Hold on, imma leave some space here so I can use both boxes if need be...
Hym "So... what constitutes 'normal?' I suppose, if you're a professor, normal discourse involves the students listening to what you have to say, doing what you tell them to do, and respecting their betters or they'll be ejected because 'I don't tolerate disrespect in my classroom.' You exchange niceties with your colleagues and maybe engage in some intellectually stimulating conversation or debate... But it always remains civil and, if it doesn't, you always have some sort of recourse (even though the dialect being wielded against me leaves me with minimal/no recourse and Dr. Jeepjorp actively engages in it and is perfectly fine with it) and you never get told to go fuck yourself...

He wants to make the world a school! Ha! That's fucking hilarious! Look, he thinks there should be a buy-in to engage in the public discourse (like a student at a college) and that those with ethos (the teachers) should hold more sway over it. That is wild! That's the endgame! The real boys and the puppets! Hahahahahahaha! Nuts. You're fucking nuts man... Hooo... How does not just devolve into free speech animal farm? And you could say 'Well, you have to earn ethos' but 70% of your peers (people with similar ethos) disagree with you. The discourse being controlled by those with higher authority is exactly how we got all the self-censorship in the first place. That's just Chomsky, man. The dregs have a responsibility to remain passive and obedient in their solipsistic gardens of Eden while the golden restructure the world at their leisure or discretion. Too much logos? Who needs rationale? You can just restrict the discourse so that only those who can afford it can speak. Jesus Christ man... 🤦 I was hoping it was the former and not the latter (if you know what I mean). Twitter Again.
