The following comment is in response to friend Tom Magnuson's postabout Chris Hedges' essay, "How Kindness Saved My Life."

"I am no longer cutting any slack for stupid people, most especially those stupid people who hold education in contempt and think they have outwitted the system by being diligently ignorant. 

I know it does no good and is probably counterproductive for the one-in-bizillion stupid people who read your Facebook page when I call them by their true name.

But every now and again it’s crucial to vent some magma.

To be clear, my working hypothesis is that these folks are reprehensible - and incorrigible mofos. 

The best description of evil I’ve come across: "Evil takes deliberate delight in causing destruction.”"
