Defamation Of The Intellectual Man
In today’s society intelligence is defined as how well a person conforms to social directives. Plus, how well one takes an active role in the implementation of what a media driven society defines. Anyone, who steps aside, reasons each, and every aspect of an issue, is considered a social heretic. I would be one of those heretics. For I do not take to what is. I derive for myself the truth of our nature. I reason out the long term results of actions. Vilification is my reward for my social insolence. It is, without doubt, a great honor!
