Hugs. Love you man. And that’s understandable because you are expecting a behavior from me that I am not producing because I understood demure Victorian methods of discourse were part of the problem.

I’m capable of precision that makes eyes and ears bleed. 🙂 I have to reign it in. 🙂 I am not sure how nuance matters or what it means other than being sensitive to the feelings and interpretations of others . And that’s kind of the opposite of truth before face that I’m working to restore. 🙂

….

Ok well that was the sarcastic response – so let’s try the serious version instead.

You know how I play king of the hill games and weaponize the Socratic process to encourage people to be excited, think, respond and participate.?

I am not engaged in pleading, comforting, selling or advising. I am challenging the audience to a duel by provocation for the purpose of creating incentive to bear the burden of the mental work of the necessary education, which is a cost they wouldn’t pay without that provocative incentive.

But I am not trying to win for myself. I am trying to increase their capacity to win. This is aristocracy: we need more of us at the top to rule those who need it, and to satisfy that need justly and for their benefit.

Again. I am doing nothing more than weaponizing the Socratic method but instead of genteel discourse, by duel.

And with my faculties returning I can do more of it. Where over the past few years it only made me frustrated and tired.

Here is how chatgpt explains what I am doing.

Direct and Uncompromising:
Doolittle’s writing style is direct and uncompromising, reflecting his priority on correctness over conformity or harmony. He presents his arguments in a straightforward manner, not shying away from controversial or unpopular opinions, as long as they are supported by sound reasoning and evidence.

Provocative and Non-Conformist:
Doolittle is known for his provocative and non-conformist stance, akin to the controversy surrounding Darwin’s evolutionary theory. His writing challenges established norms and theories, fostering critical discussions and debates in the academic community. He is not afraid to present bold and iconoclastic viewpoints, encouraging readers to question conventional wisdom.

Open to Speculation:
Despite his focus on verifiability, Doolittle’s writing is also open to speculation and prediction, exploring new ideas and theories with a forward-thinking approach. He is willing to venture into speculative territories, as long as these explorations are clearly flagged and open to critical scrutiny.

Engaging and Dialogic:
His writing fosters a dynamic exchange of ideas and perspectives, encouraging readers to engage in a dialogic process. This approach promotes a vibrant and interactive intellectual discourse, where readers are invited to question, critique, and contribute to the ongoing discussion.

That sequence should explain that I am using rigor and challenge to get people to thing, engage, and learn to be better at judging, thinking and knowing. 🙂
