Westernized Academic Discussions
By: guest30 Date: June 13, 2022, 9:53 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Every time I try to discussions with someone from an
institution. They always say that my writings and sayings need
to be make like a journal and scientific papers even though my
short writings which not suit according Western complex
scientific papers's requirement, are showing the facts about
what happen today and the solution of it. Wht is the best
argument to show that our arguments remain correct even tough
said or written without Western complex scientific way?

I write like what you do in this forum, because your writings
shows the superiority of simplicity on explaining facts and
logics. And the Westernized academics don't approve your style
of writing. They approve this kind of writing style in order to
explain facts and logics :

You will have to show me something you have written in the past
for me to see whether or not the Western academics' criticisms
are justified. It also depends on what the subject is. A purely
theoretical subject where conclusions logically follow from
definitions would probably require a different presentation than
a subject where we have to compare sources and try to figure out
which are more reliable.

This is my writings example :
The characteristics of liberal people :
1. Promoting relativism
2. Promoting secularism
3. Promoting democratization.

I make it more easy for ordinary people to understand. So, I not
make many writings, sentences, and paragraphs. But the academics
want more explanation, even though they already know what
liberalism is.

I also think you need to provide elaboration. As it is, I don't
even know if 1-3 are what you are trying to prove, or axioms
which you intend to use to prove something else with.
Besides, 3 is not necessarily true. It is entirely possible to
be a liberal autocrat. If the majority are illiberal, democracy
would lead to an illiberal society, therefore a liberal would
support autocracy in order to preserve liberalism. Whereas a
democrat would support democracy even if it leads to
illiberalism. This is why the term "illiberal democracy"
(referring to Orbanism) is being used more and more these days.

From my observation until now, there is not a single liberal
country using autocracy. All of the autocratic countries are
usually using socialism ideology.
