                when first the student asked, perplexed and purposeless, the master said nothing. when next the student asked deliberate, light shone but not through the doorway. the student left to reflect, and was enlightened

                  I also like gesturing at my superior views and opinions by doing funni bits on the internet.

                  It really prevents you from having to say anything of value.

                    so, to recap

                    first you make a nonsensical “rhetorical” statement that’s fairly easily answered by actually just reading the many works of published analyses of the dynamic. someone replies to this comment in a manner attempting to gently hint to you that the answers you seek may be found in a specific direction if but only you did a bit of learning

                    you decide to reply to this with quite some attitude (frankly, a post easily characterized as “rudely demanding”). another (myself) attempts to ever so gently call that out, which you then to moderate credit express some curiousity to, and again you are given a mild (in-character to your very post) guideline

                    and your next response is the equivalent of an internet tantrum

                    how, exactly, do you think this will help?
