His philosophy on almost anything, echoes Nietzsche’s brilliant observation that philosophers are autobiographical, that is, they are merely playing a rhetorical game to validate who they already are.
Taleb does this with finesse and confidence (and arrogance), which gives the impression that he has reached a holy truth, or a limit of human understanding, but it is far from that. It is simply that he has come to accept the choices he has made, and is now in the business of justification.
if you are not a statistician, or a trader, or speak some ancient language like Latin, then you’re an idiot. You see, all social scientists, have been proven to be frauds, because almost half of their experiments fail to replicate. So, it is prudent to dismiss them. While you’re at it, you can safely dismiss any book that has not been written more than a hundred years ago. Except, of course, Taleb’s books
The saddest part about Taleb is that he refutes himself, repeatedly, in his own writings. In The Bed of Procrustes, he says that the only way you know you have won an argument is when someone has insulted your character. On Twitter, and in the same book, a few pages later, he insults many people’s characters.

Taleb is not a genius, but he is a very sharp thinker. He has, however, fallen prey to his own vain obsessions. He has failed to cultivate the kind of character he preaches about so much in his writings, he disparages entire disciplines because he doesn’t really understand them, and he relies and defends ad hominem attacks when it suits him, while accusing others of weakness and intellectual weakness when they do the same.
