Hey all,
I thought this might be a good conversation subject.
Please note -- I don't want to start a flame war, I just thought this would be an interesting subject to discuss.
I'll start.
People who are too eager to join a cause without having any real idea of what they're getting into, and will ARGUE the hell out of one side while benig totally ignorant..
These people offend me the most, because they are willing to argue a point they have no involvement in, no understadning of, and are absolutely completely ignorant of the other side's opinion.
Most people might do this if they were given a social situation where it was deemed fit, and would react the same way.. But I can't respect people who do this.
A good example is pro-health nuts who really just believe whatever they hear, and would actively be sold on a bill to ban water if it was called something other than water and described properly. (see Penn & Teller's Bullshit)
