Re: [microsound] anti-intellectualism

[Xdugef <info@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Seems to me that only certain philosophies are acceptable (especially
ones having to do with marxists povs).. and obviously if yours is not a
supported one then yours must be that of an anti-intellectual.


Style
The way in which something is said, done, expressed, or performed: a
style of speech and writing. 
The combination of distinctive features of literary or artistic
expression, execution, or performance characterizing a particular
person, group, school, or era. 

Philosophy
1. the rational investigation of the truths and principles of being,
knowledge, or conduct.  
2. any of the three branches, namely natural philosophy, moral
philosophy, and metaphysical philosophy, that are accepted as composing
this study.  

The difference seems clear to me.
