One of the reasons that, Philosophers are less relevant, in age of "free speech" is their favoring of censorship; Wisdom is self-censorship.. 

The point of Philosophy is not a subject but the way a subject is understood. It opens with questions and leave the subject, open-ended.. 

The very existence of different schools of thought are indicative of their open-ended natures however, prejudices keep them closed 

Intellectuals struggle b/w each other, whose sense of reality makes more sense and politicians struggle over " whose reality is more real". 

Wealth and power make one to have an illusion of wisdom... 

If you are the only the "model", available free for your projects then it might be looked upon as narcissism; Bragging is better than begging...
