Cynics happen when skeptics are right for decades, but no one will listen to them.
That’s line’s got some oomph to it
A skeptic will seek more information. A cynic will just shit on it first and maybe (probably not) ask questions later.
This is why I am much more of a cynic nowadays. So much fud and I can’t go down a rabbit hole with every one to determine why its wrong. Oh man and my wife stays informed with youtube.
It’s more important to have a reasonable stance, yourself, and in areas you can directly impact, than it is to establish truth in scenarios you have virtually no impact upon.
I don’t think so
Good, keep going.
Is it because you think the idea is BS and you assume the worst or because you’re not convinced and the idea requires more evidence to back it up?
Oh sure, you’d love that wouldn’t you? Wouldn’t you? Probably. I don’t know, prove it to me.
So that’s a “yes“. Just as I thought! Although, with a sample size of just one, the result is hardly anecdotal, let alone statistically significant.
Classical cynics loved to ridicule society and exalt nature. Modern cynics ridicule society and exalt themselves.
A cynic that owns a mortgage and a 401k is a bigger imposter than the tourist wearing a Che Guevara T-shirt in the Mall of America.
¿Por Qué No Los Dos?
I’ve been trying. Unfortunately, people in power seem totally unresponsive to the needs of the people. Don’t know what the optimal solution for that is, but historically, the solution is usually something you’re not allowed to encourage on social media.
Do you listen to The Grey Area?
Not to far. Thanks for letting me know about it.
Listen to the episode from last week “why cynicism is bad for you” … you’re on to something with your post here that is covered a lot in the episode.
We need more sardonicism.
I certainly won’t disagree with that.
Give me a break! Are you fucking serious? I suppose this is to be expected from skibidi fucks like you, anyways.
Edit: was that helpful? Trying to fill that void for you.
I get it, it’s hard to form sentences with proper words when all these curse words are so easy to use anywhere and anytime. Especially when you have to use difficult, intelligent or educated words like “Are you actually serious?” or “skibidi people”. I know it’s challenging for people like you, but I implore you to try “clean sardonicism”.
Give it try, but beware, people might stop thinking you’re an asshole.
(Ps, just playing along here, but this did trigger me. I do loath those people who just blatantly go around insulting everyone they disagree with online)
Absolutely. Well played, I think that’s a great example of the self-referential bullshit feedback loop of sardonic behavior. No actual trigger intended.
