Ideology Versus Practice

Musings • Peace to the People • Blog • Entrepreneurship • Mindfulness • Marketing • Ideology Versus Practice

One ofthe biggest lessons and rebellions I’ve had in life? To move away from overanalyitcal theory and find the action and practice that leads to acutal results.

I went to school and majored in a school of Theory. Not Social Change, or anything practical.

But esoteric bullshit needing justified with more esoteric bullshit.

What I mean? Jargon on jargon on jargon.

These people have never read the Harvard professors infamous book “The Writer’s Companion” in which he hiliariously brings the overly intellectual down many pegs for using language to separate and elevate the “intellectually elite” by avoiding straightforward simplicity and instead, for instance: implementing an advanced utilization of language that overstragetizes and overemphazies, that puffs up its metaphorical chest and says very little in grandiose ways.

Get to the point.

I grew so sick of privileged professors in ivory towers writing hundred page pages about poverty in society.

Who read that scholarly journal, anyway?

Other scholars in your particular field of expertise, the few who could decipher your jargon filled BS?

What was one action your paper provided as a means of practice to actually DO something about anyone’s poverty or suffering?

So much of my education was about REFLECTING about problems, but I took zero classes in this field that offered any soultions.

Rebel, rebel, revolt! With zero practical solutions of what to DO to make any of it better.
