People are allowed to ridicule me for nerding out my passion pompously, or any sort of perceived sincerity, for that matter.
I’ve always held that sincerity alone shouldn’t implicitly justify immunity from ridicule, but the ridicule tends to work if isn’t sincere in its own right.

Complaining about people complaining does get old fast, however.
The CCP, the RNC, and the DNC are not your friends.
Vote your conscience. Always remember to see who’s funding who, who will gain, and who will lose. There are better choices than others, even when confronted by only bad choices.
