The '''âLefty Enervation Packetâ''' | [[File:Lefty-enervation-packet.png|thumb]] | ||
 | |||
The '''âLefty Enervation Packetâ''' is a social script that conditions intellectuals, particularly on the American Left and in the academic/expert class, to dismiss potentially important lines of inquiry using safe, standard responses like: | |||
* ''"Correlation does not imply causation."'' | * ''"Correlation does not imply causation."'' | ||
| Line 23: | Line 25: | ||
The use of the term "enervation" in this concept refers to a deliberate draining of intellectual or critical energyâa kind of mental or moral weakening. Thus, the âLefty Enervation Packetâ describes a set of default phrases and ideas that sap the will to question authority or challenge dominant narratives. These ideas give the illusion of intellectual sophistication while actually discouraging deeper inquiry. The result is a compliant expert class that avoids confronting uncomfortable truths, thereby protecting entrenched power structures. | The use of the term "enervation" in this concept refers to a deliberate draining of intellectual or critical energyâa kind of mental or moral weakening.
