Well, doesn't it put yourself in the list of punchables by your own definition, knowing the fact that you know practically nothing about me at all, but so vigorously call me 'snobbish', 'arrogant', and 'ignorant'?

And if you ask me, I despise violence against such people. I firmly believe that truth by its nature carries infinitely more power than whatever opposes it.

And usually, by my observations, people who reach for censorship, insults and violence in the face of an idea are intuiting that the ground they stand on, can be dismantled by simple truth. So in their egotistical arrogance, instead of admitting they have been wrong, they try to silence others with anything but facts.

This, now, is a great time to observe this dance. So much bullshit is being dismantled, ships are sinking and many rats are jumping to reach the shore, but the crew that has invested so much in the glittery tin foil they build the ship from, have nothing else but their own shit to throw to those who stand on a solid ground.
