You're exactly the kind of people I worry about. Accepting idiotic rules without any critical diagnosis of the bigger picture, giving up your last ounce of humility in return for "security".

Hmm, I fail to see where my statement makes the claim I accept such idiotic rules. My statement makes the claim that it is stupid to act stupid in an effort to fight stupid rules.

And then I agreed with the TSA security theater notion and bloated budget which goes against your thought I've given up my last ounce of humility in return for "security".

I suggest you read my statement again because you clearly misunderstood.

You tacitly accept rules you refuse to oppose or do anything about.
So, arguing that one should be smart when fighting stupid rules means I accept the rule? Being stupid in an effort to fight stupid rules guarantees more stupid rules in response.

What kind of nonsense are you people preaching here?
