Beware the Proclaimed Genius

| No Comments

If genius is born in collective ciphers then we need to be wary of those who proclaim their solitary and self-important Genius.

The Self-Indulgent Genius is a warning sign that kowtowing and deference are expected in any exchange of memes or communicative dyads -- and to not show deference is to be scorned and mocked and wanted smaller.

When Genius is dealt to you -- respect it and honor it and keep it quiet unless and until it is discovered by others -- and always run from those who foretell their own place in history by trumpeting a quiet gift.
