MALIGNORANCE

In discussing politics, climate change, technology innovations even COVID, there are those individuals who refuse to learn out of malice, it's an intentional ignorance where they cling to their ignorant beliefs because it conflicts with their self interest (economic, social or political). If they were being honest and open enough to learn, humble enough to accept being taught anything, they would easily understand and change their views - BUT - they maliciously cling to their ignorant belief, dig their heals in with an intellectual F U not because they don't really get it, they don't want to get it. Its intentional ignorance, maliciously ignoring a readily ascertainable truth to fight just to fight for a wrong deep down they know is wrong.
If Ignorance is Bliss, MALIGNORANCE is intellectual Hell. The Malignorant Oil Executive refused to accept that climate change was real and continued his companies investment in fossil fuels. -- or - Your Malignorance is shameful, you know COVID is real, you know it is killing people but your politics are a poison and you refuse to acknowledge truth.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
