Well, you know, I consider myself a serious philosopher who engages in tongue-in-cheek sarcasm and humor, ideological inflammation, and macho nonsense now and then for entertainment purposes – and often to signal that I do not live in an ivory tower.
But I definitely don’t do conspiracy theory, and I try to avoid ridicule, since they are evidences of intellectual weakness that I don’t want to demonstrate.
Basically I want to know how we get better, not how others fail.
