Hey people, today I want to talk to you about faking wisdom, if you watched Steve's time
15 you might have noticed that I somehow touched this subject, but I think it deservers its
own video.
In today society it's not that difficult to figured out what to do to seem to be more
intelligent or even wise. Here are some pointers how to do it: you need to say that everyone
is beautiful inside and it doesn't matter how people look like, because being interested
in people's appearance is vain. money is not as important as personal relationships, if
you have a lot of people who loves you, you are truly rich. No matter what bad things
happened to you, there people are who have it worst then you. And of course you must
act modest, no matter what you actually think of yourself.
If you do these things majority of people will actually think that you must be sooo
wise. It's a kind of a paradox of an averge intelligence, if you imagine the classical
Bell Curve of IQ, you can see that about 70% of people has IQ from 80 to 120, these people
are the easiest to manipulate, because they are smart enough to be convinced about something,
but not smart enought to see through the ***.
But of course majority of people who are bullshiting like this are also average intelligence, which
means that we have a huge group of people which is still trying to *** each other.
You can easily observe this bullshiting process on facebook, in many cases you can see something
that can be described as only circle-jerk of tolerance. Of course the funny thing is
that people who do that are usually the least tollerant people, which just nicely shows
that there is big difference between who they are and how they are trained to fake their
identity and moral wisdom.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that being the opposite way is a solution, but maybe
it would be nice if people were actually acting on what they say, if they fake it already,
they could also start doing good things, no one would care if they are just faking the
willingnest to do good things, what would count would be the result. But since there
is a big differnce between what they do and say, it makes them look just like a bunch
of hypocrites.
