So, just want to clear up something I tweeted the other day about not being an intellectual. Iām not one in the sense that is regarded as the typical model which ppl see as āintellectual.ā Like, Marxists will deem Parenti or anarchists used to say Chomsky was.
So, I guess what Iām saying is, I am like many of you. I just do my thing and absorbed a lot of information. I just refuse to articulate it with multi-syllable words, and thereās a reason for that...actually 2 reasons for that. The first being, I donāt know many of them lol.
No one in that building talks that way, they donāt understand not only ābig words,ā but just donāt do in depth analysis. That is thanks to the education system we went thru, which by coincidence I was talking about with another comrade with today.
We just talk plain, most of the time itās loud (usually because I think we are never heard and want someone to hear what we got to say), or itās just our general demeanor (which is cool, too. Fuck w/e classist āimpolite bullshit you been told, thatās just how we talk!
So, when I write, Iām talking. Itās coming from my head and going on screen. Iām in projects mode and Iām just being direct and honest. I donāt know no other way to do it. I aināt going to lie, a lot of stuff is from things I learned but, that was self taught. So...
My intellectual ability as far as my capacity to reference scholars or even history is not *on point* like I said in the post āmy history is not on point.ā I donāt look down on myself, Iām kinda glad I can help others reach a higher level of thinking and not just accepting.
But, thereās levels to this, I guess. You can see my post, right? And you are feeling it like
But go scroll down and youāll see ppl on my followers list that are amazing spitters in the knowledge game. And thatās all Iām saying, I just break it down in simple ways, because many ppl arenāt brought up to listen to someone who doesnāt talk like they do, or...
Hasnāt suffered like they do. Iām also saying Iām really humbled by the ones (many of you who are my followers, some Iām just following) that I donāt ever let it affect the balance in my life. Iām not better than you, Iām one of you. No one is better than anyone.
Thatās competitive bullshit that needs to stop. I just enjoy yāall for who you are and how you accept me for that straight, direct, I aināt here to fuck around, basic approach. So, thatās what I was saying, Iām appreciative of yāall. You keep me humble, in knowing that...
Iām not some intellectual, Iām someone who can help you. My way wonāt be good for some, some may like the classic modern lecture and method of explaining and I guess āeducatingā others. Thatās beautiful, just pls listen to them if that appeals to you. That just aināt me lol
