      Mad? If by mad you mean passionately tired of playing the fools while you parade your supposed superiority, then maybe I am. Your reduction of a pointed critique to a feeble attempt at rhetorical dismissal doesn’t even scratch the surface of the issue. It seems easier to label my words as a verbose expression of anger than to confront what they truly represent—a demand for accountability and a refusal to accept complacency as virtue.

      You wear your certifications like a shield, but they hardly cover the gaps in your empathy or understanding. Call it intellectual posturing if you wish, but my critique is less about academics and more about challenging a system that thrives on silence and mediocrity.

      Maybe it’s time to let go of your petty defenses and acknowledge that passion—whatever form it takes—can be a sign of someone deeply committed to change. Until then, I’ll keep calling out complacency, regardless of whether it dents your ego or sparks some uncomfortable self-reflection.

      Grow up? Perhaps. But only if you dare to step beyond your comfortable haven of condescension and join a genuine dialogue about the issues that matter.
