A person who judges you as deficient creates intolerable inequality between you and them.

By demonstrating overconfident inferior judgment on matters you know best of all, such a judge reveals blindness and double-blindness.

The blind judge is both ignorant and ignorant of their ignorance.

The blind judge’s faulty judgment applies most of all to their conceit of fitness to judge.

The blind judge is oblivious not only to what they are oblivious about, but of the ineradicable (non)presence of oblivion; and that kind of ignorance descends beneath the realm of knowledge into moral failure.

The blind judge cannot rise to the condition of equality. And this creates a terrible tension in any sovereign being who prefers equality and respect among fellow sovereigns. A painful paradox: “If you are not up to the difficult task of meeting me as an equal, I regret that I will be unable to relate to you as an equal.”

A new way to hear: Judge not, lest you be judged.
