A foolish aphorism known as Hanlon’s razor says “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”
This is foolish and short-sighted. All adopting it accomplishes is to offer cover to the malicious and allow them to hide behind their multiple levels of deception. Consider the following comments made in response to a wicked fake philosopher seeking to convince others to submit to evil.
- Sounds like the guy posted his shroom trip.
- I became more retarded reading that retards nonsense.
- Stones can’t dance; why do they spout such idiocy? Recycled Taoist mysticism.
- Sounds VERY Hindu/Indian, or wearing those trappings at least
- Sounds like some Psilocybin based philosophy from a 90’s art student.
It’s vital to not fall for the primary deception. But it’s also important to not fall for the secondary deception that allows the wicked to retreat while continuing to move and operate freely under the cover of harmless stupidity.
Always attribute to malice that which gives off even the faintest hint of sulfur, no matter how stupid it is. Neither demons nor the wicked are particularly known for their intelligence.
