   Which is fucking *pathetic*. I can't imagine how sad and empty my life   
   would have to be that I would get any sort of pleasure or satisfaction   
   out of spending gobs of my time actively going to newsgroups for   
   products I dislike for the sole purpose of antagonizing complete   
   strangers just because they use those products. That strikes me as the   
   exact same asshole mentality of the anti-vaccers and anti-maskers you   
   see going around and harassing complete strangers and hospital and   
   minimum wage workers just for being productive and helpful members of   
   society.

   Lies and hate are all they have. They have no place in society.
