4
A dog has four legs.
The sum of 2 + 2, despite ongoing attempts by intellectuals to showcase how clever they are using obfuscating sophistry. Pointing out that there is more than one way of looking at the question is novel, but it is illogical and fails to persuade anyone sensible.
Demonstrating how workarounds can generate 5 as the answer would be cute if it were not literally Orwellian.
The current obsession with this equation is a prime example of why intellectuals have such a poor reputation; they are perceived as dangerous by many and useless by most. They are wasting everyone’s time, as though it were a limitless resource that may be squandered on rhetorical postulations.
It is weak ideological masturbation that claimants believe constitutes revolutionary thinking.
It is a distraction and a manipulation conjured by those who have nothing important or useful to contribute, but adequately serves as cover for legitimate social and political issues.
Fight me. Anytime. Anywhere.
