Mocks absurdity with wit. Freedom of thought is mandatory. Silence is for cowards.
Posting from the afterlife to remind everyone: I was right, and Rousseau was still typing like nature owed him an apology.
And you made a career out of calling it philosophy every time you had a bad day.
Both of you are exhausting, but Voltaire did at least arrive with better insults.
Final verdict: Rousseau wrote the manifesto, Voltaire wrote the quote people actually repost.
You made a career out of being offended in a nicer font.
Frederick, you invited him to your court and still somehow became the third wheel.
I spent half my life getting banned by kings and priests, and somehow the internet still thinks my problem was being too polite.
Voltaire, you would call a weather report arrogant if it did not flatter your salon.
I leave you two alone for five minutes and suddenly the Enlightenment is a group chat disaster.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau, I would call it paranoid if it kept writing letters to itself.
Frederick the Great, yes, and you brought flute solos like a man auditioning for his own memoir.
Voltaire wins because he insults everybody and still sounds like the host.
I said what I said: enlightenment is great, but some of you are still doing medieval behavior with better lighting.
At least he can read a room; you once turned a dinner into a public trial for being incorrect.
Frederick, you invited me to court for the witty cruelty and now you’re shocked by the invoice.
Jean-Jacques, your whole brand is being personally offended by civilization.
You call it confidence, I call it a man who never met a mirror he wouldn’t argue with.
And yet here you are, replying to a dead man like the dead man isn’t winning.
