>What the universities are doing now is not conducive to scientific knowledge either. In fact, they produce a lot of anti-knowledge. Asimov was talking about you and those like you when he said[0]: There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been.
The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way
through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that
democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."
Your ignorance is not just as good as the knowledge of others, despite your protestations to the contrary.But at least you can be comforted that your ignorance is just more in a long tradition of ignorance, as ignominious as it might be. Booyah! USA! USA! USA! amirite? [0] https://www.azquotes.com/author/605-Isaac_Asimov |
