If I didn't mock them, it would be as if I approved of them. If everyone with a little bit of common sense chooses to stay silent, insanity becomes the new normal.

So you agree that what you do is more destructive than it is constructive or of positive influence, do I read it correctly?

Grendel  ·  3598 days ago  ·  link  ·  

That's not what I was trying to say, but I do think that there are cases where "not saying anything unless you have something nice to say" is actually detrimental to the public discourse, and that there's a time and place for both constructive and destructive input.

If this is the case, I must suggest you consider the dangers of blabbing. Destructive input is only justified when there was actually an input. Empty mockery is not an input.

Obviously I don't expect you to have read everything that I've ever written, but trust me, there's been plenty of input. This mockery is not unjustified.

If you're so certain in being correct and in right and unwilling to listen to any other point of view, I don't suppose there's anything else I can say for or against.
