Zero Tolerance (FOAGOMP)

I’m declar­ing a zero tol­er­ance pol­icy towards the will­fully igno­rant, the ter­mi­nally self absorbed, and the crim­i­nally self­ish. To take a page from the author David Brin, I am part of a civ­i­liza­tion, and so are you. What does that mean? It means that respond­ing to the issues of the day with facile responses such as “the government’s always been cor­rupt,” or “why bother the elec­tion is fixed,” or sim­i­lar tripe is no longer accept­able. Slightly more accept­able is com­men­tary that ade­quately exposes the com­menter as being an dick, who’s only out for their own inter­ests. Such peo­ple are evil; but mock­ing them amuses me. In short, if you aren’t ready to join the rest of the human race, Fuck Off And Get Off My Planet.
