<p>Just coming back to read this post and threads, it has been 3 days since I saw this clickbait title<p>Apparently, just as I thought, the author doesn't know about enlightenment. No, that doesn't imply that I am more "woke" than anyone else, or anyone else is more "woke" than me. Even if it does, so?<p>Enlightenment, if you know it, you know it. You want to change the world, go ahead. You give no f<i></i>* about the world, you do you.<p>(Critically) Questioning enlightened people about what they will do for themselves or the world won't make a difference, it doesn't make the author more enlightened, more clever or sounds superior.<p>I will gladly ask after he finishes his words, so?<p>I can't change the world, so?<p>I can't change people to learn, so?<p>You aren't happy with me enlightening, so?<p>I enlightened, or not, so?<p>I will change the world, and so?<p>Now you are enlightened in this moment, so?</p>
