Reply #165: I'm one of those people calling it woo

[Confusious]

If I had no ability to distinguish between legitimate ideas and illogical claims, why should I have any reaction to it at all?

A color blind person doesn't have a reaction to not being able to identify a color.

A person who can't react to facial expressions doesn't get pissed off about it.

A person who has a hard time with non-verbal communication doesn't get pissed about.

You wonder why other people have a bad reaction to you.

It's a hypersensitivity to being taken advantage of. Woo peddlers, faith healers, nigerian princes, lonely Russian girls, forward this email and bill gates will give you a million dollars! ( That last one was thin, but you get the picture ) all of them raise the ( non-existant ) hair on my back.

I can spot a bullshit artist a mile away. They all have the same things in common. To wordy, false bravado and are too god damn friendly. There are other minor things, but they all share that in common.

Invariably, marketing people fit that classification to the T.
