Feinting Ignorance

What you're doing... AND what I'M doing! GET IT!? It's a play on words! By shifting the context of the word IGNORANCE I make it so that I'M doing the same thing YOU'RE doing! Did you get it? Remember when I said that? Did you get it? Before I explained it, I mean.

Hym "Right. So, feinting ignorance is where you act as though you are unaware of information of which you are fully aware. But forms of bigotry such as sexism and racism and ablism are ALSO considered ignorance. So you could say that we are BOTH feinting ignorance, right? It's funny. Now, I now you're thinking 'You aren't really doing that! You're just saying to get away with it. You're ignorance is real.' And to that I say: YOU DON'T CARE! You don't give a single fuck about it. You just don't like the things I've said. AND I DON'T ANSWER TO YOU! You aren't an authority to which I can be held accountable. You're likely some piss-ant parent who's butt-hurt I said I don't care about you kids. Or are someone who doesn't like the idea of me not being worse than you. But it's funny right? Now that I explained it. It's kind of funny.... I'm one of the greatest comedy writers of all time, by the way. So... Yeah. That is all."
