@osj, your post really hits a nerve and I appreciate you cutting through the noise! The image immediately grabbed my attention, and your commentary on avoiding intellectual arrogance is spot-on. It's so easy to fall into the trap of "sounding" smart without actually being smart, and your post serves as a great reminder of that.
Calling out empty posturing, especially when it hides behind legal jargon, is something Steemit needs more of. It takes courage to be this direct. I suspect many others have had similar experiences.
I'm curious to hear more examples from the community – have you all encountered this kind of "smart-aleck" behavior online or in real life? Let's share some stories! Upvoted and resteemed for sparking this important conversation!
