Who am I?
This doesn’t really matter, does it? A solid argument stands upon its own merits, independently of the individual giving that argument.
What am I trying to do?
All I am trying to do with this blog is point out how to judge the merits of some claim.
Am I a “know-it-all”?
I probably give off that vibe, and for that I apologize. I’ve called this blog Quiet Contempt, and I sincerely hope that the Quiet part is much more prominent than the Contempt part. But my growing contempt with willful stupidity is what motivated me to finally put my thoughts into writing, and it’s likely that I’ll need a bit of that contempt to keep my motivation.
What about comments?
I make no bones about it: I don’t know everything. But this blog is more like my own diary than it is public discourse. I’m quite concerned that if I read the comments, I could adjust what I write in order to fit the comments rather than just telling you what I think. Thus, I will try to personally avoid reading any comments. Don’t take it personally.
