TM's statement fits the scientist-become-statesperson
predilection. It's adduced by the indolent superior-minded
who relish policy pronouncements over grunge lab work.
Why else would the fey conceit of worldly wisdom be
flaunted if not in repugnance at sweaty labor? This
presumes that nobody in right mind wants a job, but desires
an esteemed position in society, a title and the perks of
privilege, with underlings serving.
Isn't it such delusionary evangelism that keep recruits
coming to endure the small-minded mono-cultural insultery
confabulated by these lazy and shiftless pastors, happy as
pigs in shit, grateful that the heirarchical mindset scam
works -- even if only through the nauseous flattering of
their moreso lazy and shiftless benefactors?
By any means, emulate elitist indolents and avoid anxiety.
Display iron-fisted civilized beliefs, practice tough-love
humiliation and master-over-slave manners and militant
mind-couture, but do nothing truly disruptive of the status
quo that so rewards niche market exploiters of genuine
dissent.
