This world is designed to favor the elderly. Gaining experience through trial and error first means that you have a competitive advantage over latecomers. It also occupies an advantageous position in social organization. This is the advantage that arises from being the first to start. However, the statement that 1 plus 1 equals 2 can be understood without any experience; it serves as an analytic proposition that can be known by reason compared to the aforementioned experiential proposition. In other words, in the realm of analytic propositions, the advantage of being older does not hold much weight. The world needs both experiential propositions and analytic propositions, but experience is not always essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Only ‘things you know wrong’ are considered stereotypes, but ‘things you know for sure’ can also be stereotypes. With knowledge, it is easy to say ‘wrong-RIGHT-words.’ However, there is no “right answer” in the world. There are many ‘answers’ to one problem, and we often have difficulty finding an answer among them. Stereotypes do not discriminate between ‘right’ and ‘wrong.’ Stereotypes, in themselves, only imprison our thoughts. Trapped thinking finds only limited answers. Perhaps you can’t find it forever. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
