    Counterpoint:

    As I get older, I gain more knowledge and wisdom. As I gain more knowledge and wisdom, my perspectives develop. As my perspectives develop, my comprehension of my own limitations grows as well.

    Ergo, old me saying that old me is dumb has way more weight than younger me saying that younger me was dumb, because younger me had shit for brains and barely any idea of what it means to be dumb. But older me has a much better idea of* how much of the dumb there is!

    In short, if I say I’ve never been dumber, you’d better fukken believe I haven’t!:))
