The White American Coup of 1898

This is why they want to cancel PBS and other educational platforms that speak truth PBS & the history channel they’ve always spoke truth and now they want to shut them all down and feed you their lies! 💯

This is what they are trying to do as we speak because of our greatness and power!!!💯

"You know, I also keep watching them talk about how smart they are, and keep thinking about how actual smart people don’t tend to do that.

Like, listen to Neil DeGrasse Tyson deliver a lecture, and see how often he’ll talk about how smart he is. It’s not going to happen.

You know the type of people who do like talking about how smart they are? ..."

If anything, the more you know, the more you feel like you don't know anything and try to keep quiet about your supposed ignorance. It's always surprising to talk to someone about something you feel like you don't know a thing about, and then suddenly realize that your knowledge about some topic far exceeds that of the average person's knowledge on said topic.

That's true high intelligence in my opinion; knowing that you know nothing.

This is very true!

And it makes a lot of sense too. Because in the end, the world is so complex that there is really no end to what we can learn about it.

Imagine for a moment that a subject that you are learning about is an endless mansion. When you start learning, you are in a room with four doors on each side. You don't know anything outside of that.

If you stay there, you might feel pretty knowledgeable, like you know a lot about this mansion based on one room that you are in.

But let's say that you can curious...

You want to know what is behind one of those doors, so you open it up. And what you find is another room with more doors. You have answered one question and discovered a new room. But now you have three more unanswered questions.

You have gone from having four unopened doors to having six.

So you open another door and see what's inside that. And again, you are met with another room just like the others.

The further you go into this mansion, the more unopened doors you realize there are and the more you realize how little you actually know about it.

Somebody who never ventures outside of that first room will feel pretty knowledgeable about the mansion.

This person only has four unanswered questions.

But the person who explores hundreds of rooms is one who will have hundreds of unanswered questions.

Therefore the most confident person in their knowledge will paradoxically be the one who knows the least.

What are the elements of an act of knowing? At least two are immediately obvious: that which is known, and the consciousness which knows it. The knower's status is at least as important as that of the known, a point which modern physics has been forced to recognize in the uncertainty principle, which reveals the fact that, in order to know something about it, an observer must act upon, and thus disturb, an object. The act of knowing is thus a transaction between the object and the knower which involves physical exchanges of energy. Thus the concept of pure "parallelism”—a reflection within the knower of the known—is not tenable. We cannot think of the known as pure reflection within the knower, like the image of a flying swan on the smooth surface of a pond. When the swan lights on the water, its pure image is shattered by the broken surface.

Did you know that Groucho Marx was a real person before seeing this poll?

Asking this again because I have polls now, and please feel free to reblog so I can get the widest sample size possible.

And in case you think this poll is weird, I legit have seen multiple people who didn't know he was a real guy. They just thought he was some stock character/caricature.

Which is a shame, because the Marx Brothers movies are amazing and you all should watch them!

Tho, to be fair, it is kinda like I thought about that weird guy who kept showing up those Looney Tunes cartoons as a kid before I knew about Peter Lorre...

the one (perhaps only) thing i’ll always like about growing older and maturing is the never-ending opportunity to develop and refine your personal taste in pretty much anything. fashion, food, music, literature, art, design, furniture: the older you get, the more knowledge, insight and experience you acquire and it all adds up to a treasure of source material to create a new you from. carve, prune, distill, expand, sculpt, evolve - you can recreate yourself always and aging gracefully is all about endlessly enriching yourself through that recreation.
