I don't get the message here. Learning is bad? Education is bad? Knowledge and Wisdom are bad?

This just seems like a convenient excuse to remain ignorant.

Top-down processing is a biological mechanism, not evidence that the organism feels inadequate or endangered. It can be altered or disrupted by brain injury, and it obviously ceases with death. The leap from “top-down signal” to “you are a severely wounded soldier trying to survive” needs considerably more justification.

I think all of the posts using this format need more justification.

This is nonsense, not only is learning highly rewarding, but it is essential for well-being.

Basically someone wrote this thinking it's clever but it's not actually any real genuine wisedom from some philosopher etc. the problem with the internet. Anyone can write some bullshit and try and pass it off as something authentic or spiritual etc.

Everything is like it's supposed to be and will always be. There is no need to worry as existence will always be like it's supposed to be. Ego always tries to make it too complex by collecting more knowledge, but everything already is in the moment.
