Patience Is a Virtue

Patience Is a Virtue
I had to chuckle at the latest retort. We're back to being 'chicken' again. Seems like we're going in circles with these retorts. This time they say I'm a coward because I don't want to face the media without my lawyers.

Aristotle makes a distinction between courage and rashness. All those fools who wanted to be stars with my work without my permission weren't courageous or they wouldn't be in so much trouble now. They were rash.

As I said before, I'm sharing my knowledge to benefit future internet stars. At the moment, we're still ironing out all the bugs in the old system. And one of the best bits of advice I can give to them is to avoid the media until they have a lawyer. The media don't care about you, they care about themselves. They don't care about your work, they care about their ratings. They would sell out your whole life to gain one new sponsor. Running headlong in front of their cameras is sheer suicide.

And as for going out on a stage and facing a crowd, what crowd? A crowd of Nascos? A crowd of Simpsons fans? A crowd of Rolling Stones fans? Don't they see how premature that would be at this point? My true fans are happy with me as I am right now. And if any of them are waiting for me to play, their patience will one day be rewarded.

Aristotle also makes a distinction between righteous indignation and spitefulness. The careful observer will see that my words have continuously expressed the former and not the latter.

Look up Aristotle's Table of Virtues and Vices for more information of this type.
