# the right to refuse stupid questions (rtrsq) when you hereby claim this right: **+** all knowledge is equally debatable to the incompetent (who don't really care about knowledge anyway); the point however friendo is to go 'debate' such brainslop somewhere else **+** i wish to prevent the 'stupudity epidemic' from spreading and therefore hereby refuse to answer any and all spanner-dumb time wasting pseudo-questions **+** what you assume is true doesn't matter; i flat-out refuse to engage with those who refuse to think critically and reject getting pulled into whatever nonsensical unanswerable exstential post-truth flock-pie they're happily stewing in **+** no - you do not have the automatic right to act the idiot or claim some inalienable right to the freedom to play dumb; repeatedly slapping others in the face with the dick proudly growing out of your pale forehead isn't the same as sharing a genuine love of truth and knowledge **+** a philosopher is anyone who finds critical thinking _more_ difficult than others - while those casually indifferent toward both truth _and_ delusion appear effortless and industrious in the false knowledge of ir expertise (in fact the reverse is true; it takes more effort to continually convince oneself one is always correct) **+** a zero agnotology tolerance policy is now in place - ie. for the laughably opinionated willfully stupid confidently incorrect aggressively dumb intentionally obtuse or systematically least informed; those who systematically cultivating sensationalistic narcissistic irrationality and actively promote ignorance with an agenda **+** a world of difference exists between 'doing one's own research' in order to scientifically-philosophically test and expand on what one knows - and researching precisely and merely in order to confirm one's own biases **+** you now only get one question so best engage brain before opening mouth; if your question is "how are you defining stupid?" i may or may not choose to answer - but then only briefly (one quick reply to this question: "stupididity can be defined by an unwillingness sip a tall glass of stfu and listen to the fact of one's own doubts concerning how smart one _actually_ is") **+** science and philosophy are a highly scalable tax on bullshit; the burden of proof is on the one who asks not the one who chooses to reply // republic of bob
