How is describing what someone else said in a podcast contradicting myself? Lol.
By using "excellent", you went beyond description to endorsing the validity of that comparison, when it's really an awful comparison used solely for the emotional impact rather than revealing anything meaningful.
If you don't believe me, we can play a game. You list comparisons "to what is currently brewing in the USA to the beginnings of the Cultural Revolution in China", and for each one, I'll list both a contrast with the Cultural Revolution and a comparison to the US period of 1881-1890. Who do you think will run out of items to list first?
When did I suggest or imply either of these things? As with anyone, there are times when I am qualified, and other times when I'm not. However, if someone is qualified, they should feel morally compelled to help others with that information. This action is 100X more powerful than someone simply offering empathy, which typically only has short term benefits.
I'm not sure why you are trying to infer maliciousness from my comment.
Not maliciousness, just arrogance. Telling someone how to better themself is the ultimate in ego gratification, and very seldom of real use to the person you are sharing the information with; information that is usually trite and repetitive.
