    There are subtler ways to do it in real life, admittedly.
    But what's your point? Do you believe in the current post-modernist zeitgeist that everone's opinion is equally valid?
    I don't. Some people's opinions are better than others by certain criteria.
    Hard Brexit now!

      Hmmm.... someone forgot to assimilate you into the Borg Collective. Just remember, resistance is futile.
      If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

          So you admit have a closed mind then. Not open to debate in any form.

          You are right. You are the only one with a valid opinion. Others who don't think as you are wrong. Therefore lesser people. Therefore we can reject their view. Therefore we can treat them with contempt. Therefore we can not give them the same rights as you, the right thinking ones, have. Therefore you can punish them without mercy as they are less than you. Not worthy of respect. Weak and therefore must be done away with so that right-thinking people like you need not be bothered with the ideas of those less than yourself. So we can round them up and put them to work on for our benefit. If there are too many then we can safely get rid of them... and so it goes.

          And you accuse me of being a fundamentalist jihadist. They come in all shapes and sizes. Some in the guise of Inquisitors, some in SS or NKVD uniforms and some in hijacked aeroplanes. All of them viewed other peoples ideas a less than their own.

            Mostly true. Nevertheless some people are just plain thick, like you
            I don't advocate euthanasia though, I just try to be tolerant and avoid idiots.

              I know what you mean. If there's one thing I can't stand, it's intolerance.

                  I like the Dutch!

                  They tend to be a bit dirty and smelly, but they are friendly and generous - which most Brits aren't.

                  You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.
