@pondfish,
Fido ,
It is easy if you like to wear a mask on everything. Knowledge is a belief as well. There is nothing called original , new or genuine.
Those are your way of trying add reference to your belief.
Reason philosophy of socrates still ring true is , humans basically recycle same thing with different labels change context here and there.
It is all same people.
Humans are not ready to admit the emptiness surrounds them. Instead they magically create the fantasy and say it is genuine , original...etc..
It is all relative to your belief. There is no absolute except emptiness.
The best way to challenge me is asking questions , if you answer me with your belief , it will only show your anger.
People get angry when they have stong belief which hates to get out , instead it creates a chemical reaction in brain to lash out people.
It is not you , it is just that host belief parasite in you. Nothing wrong. You just need a mirror.
