Introduction: I have a mission. This account will be an embodiment of that mission. Critical Thinking By Example.

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago 


From my profile image and background some of you may know who I am. I have another older account that talks about many of the things this account was created to address.

I plan to use this account for some video and written examples of critical thinking with emphasis on identification of logical fallacies. I will also be attacking the "authority" of the "establishment".

My account name and logo are a visual representation of an Argument from Authority Fallacy, or an Appeal to Authority.

These types of fallacies are used against us and used to manipulate us on a daily basis.

I will take on topics that many of you may consider conspiracy theories, and issues that are not of that type. Yet in any topics I take on I will be focusing on this account purely on the philosophical and critical thinking pathways of such things.

This account is considered an #informationwar account.

If you like deep philosophy, critical thinking, and discussions about current topics hopefully from slightly different angles than one normally discusses them then you may find interest in following this account.

I do not plan to talk about who my other account is here. The profile picture may clue people in as that is a shadow of an image I've used many places on steemit.

I plan on making videos, and text presentations here. This account will be a bit more polished and not as much stream of consciousness as I am known for writing in other places.

I have a mission. I had some epiphanies, some inspirations. I could not sleep. I had to create this account. I used the new steeminvite.com site to do so and it works well.

Thank you for your time.

Hey, bring it on I say. We need more Creative Thinkers in this world so you'll be contributing to a good cause. It's funny what you say "I could not sleep." because I often have this problem when I need to get something down on paper, or via keyboard, I should say. Write without fear. Looking forward to seeing some of the videos that you post.

How do you plan on maintaining anonymity AND posting video?

Have you figured that part out just yet?

I don't plan on myself being in the video. If I am ever in the video it'd be just as a voice. I plan on my voice being there. So I will approach it more as the Sargon of Akkad type method.

you mean this sargon?

Yes, but more specifically I was referring to how there are just images rather than videoing himself talking. I don't have a camera hooked up to my PC and have no intentions of doing so. Sure I could use my phone or hook up a camera, but that is not my thing.

I also usually avoid videos as it is not my preferred method, but I will do both video an text with posts here. This means they'll likely not come as quickly.

I created two new accounts for different purposes today. SO what my other new account said. Twice (thanks to steemit lag).

I understand. I am much like you and would prefer to do things from behind a camera and have the writing/commentary speak for itself. I really enjoy most of what Sargon puts out there so if you produce anything resembling that I will definitely keep an eye out for it.

Hi :) your picture reminds of me someone! ;) ;) I wonder who!!!

Anyways, I see you are talking about videos and maybe podcasting. If you ever wanted to do some podcast stuff I have been looking for great people to work with every so often on a subject. Just starting out by doing a few solo and I did a less organized podcast with @wethesheeple1776 last week(in the future will be more organized around a topic).

I am open to discussing anything if you were looking to collaborate or anything.

Appreciate all the stuff you do by the way!
