    Its the "I don't need you, you need me" marketing strategy. Not for everyone, but its not like it doesn't work.
    Of course there are people who exist & agree with X topic. There is no idea so stupid it can't be brought up on the Internet and find support. See: flat earth theory, Holocaust deniers, etc. That isn't really a defense of.. anything.

    Hi, can I say I love this line?

    That's me. I give such little care to what anyone believes that I'm perfectly fine never seeing any hint of it. I'm also perfectly fine with conflict. Like this guy points out, its pretty much a guaranteed byproduct of highly efficient/successful/motivated people.

    So, an argument about scripts, masters, etc happens? Good. People learn from those. It drives thought about the platform we're all here to be a part of and improves the ecosystem in ways 99.9% of people will never even see/consider. Its why I like you.

    But anything sour GRAPES related (Guns, Religion, Abortion, Politics, Economy, Sexuality) is inherently useless here as a discussion. This is probably a half decent article about my point: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/grapes-community-guns-religion-abortion-politics-joe-pishgar/ (ehh, after reading it I don't agree with all of his more over-the-top conclusions, but ultimately think most social subjects are useless disagreements here).

    The latter, especially, also drives the "silent minority" who find those kind of topics disgusting to my inbox. You're not the only person who gets "silent minority" letters. I despise them with a passion that burns brighter than the 5,000 moons of Tamagotchi, as per the above "I only care about work" character trait & I very much appreciate people who don't cause those kinds of conflicts here.

    So these PINs are empty? It means by the time I accepted it, someone else took up the work in their system?

    A non-sequitur used to boast, and an opinion about the worthlessness of certain opinions. Very thought provoking, until you actually think about it.
