I am, and I'm aware of it. Regarding point 1, why is being afraid/mistrustful/opposed to contradiction a bad thing? Conversely, why is embracing contradiction good? It feels like doublethink, in the orwellian meaning. Situationality I understand. Context is important. Regarding 2, I have plenty of self doubt, AND I'm fairly certain I'm not too far from monster status. My convictions about the genetic future of the species are usually enough to get me compared to hitler.
