𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026I can appreciate what René was getting at with that line, but I feel like it kinda falls short the moment you look beyond yourself. Like, you only have confirmation that you exist, you can't say that about anyone else. You don't know if I'm actually thinking. 100

Im going to cancel Eminem all by myself. Watch your fucking back, Enimen. Your greatest enemy just gave up on Mercy 000

𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026However, knowing that a religion or culture is neither immutable nor fixed within a single framework or concept, it may not constitute a universal standard of right and wrong. It may constitute only a standard within that particular culture, rather than a universal way of being. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026A community can determine reality because, for example, Buddhism assumes that its teachings constitute a refuge. Reality then comes to be interpreted according to that religious identity itself. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026In the case of religions or cultures, the person or the collective decides who is being ignorant. It is these people who possess the will and freedom of choice to apply the criteria of their identity. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026In other words, if someone is not ignorant about one thing, they may still be ignorant about others. This commonly occurs when we consider the different variables that lead an identity to form and to identify with particular ideas. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026This may arise from the elimination of the first form of ignorance, depending on the variables that lead an identity to identify with that which it has come to embrace. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026The question underlying this assumption is the following: if it is true that a person can be ignorant, then someone who is not ignorant about a particular subject may also be ignorant in other respects. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026In the case of religion, if a person has not been instructed in its teachings, and that absence results from a choice made through their free will or personal volition, they still retain the capacity to decide what they consider best according to their individuality. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026In this sense, we all have some capacity not to be ignorant or, at the very least, to reduce our ignorance. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Assuming that all people are *Homo sapiens*, being human is another matter, since not everyone seems to want to be one. We can ignore or resist our impulses, or at least possess the capacity to train ourselves to do so. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026The ignorance that these religions believe themselves to be free from is, of course, a reflection of their own religion or identity. Ultimately, an identity is something constructed and is not necessarily universal, fixed, or immutable. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026There are contradictions within the very question of ignorance. For this reason, the term is often used rather loosely. Suppose that a group of Buddhists, Christians, or members of any other religion considers other people ignorant of its teachings. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026If it is a combination of the two, or even just one of them individually, how can ignorance acquire a collective, “universal,” or global meaning? 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Or does the way a particular culture or religion views this identity depend on its own rules and limitations? It may also be a combination of both possibilities. 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026The question I ask is whether the logic of avoiding being “ignorant” is itself a reflection of one’s identity. For example, do people believe that this is the right thing to do because of its psychological effects? 100
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐨 @techopped.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Let us take a brief journey through ancient cultures and explore the question of ignorance and how it is used. Taking Buddhism as an example, we can observe a strong belief in the importance of not being ruled by our primitive instincts, ignorance being one of them. 100
