@HebrideanHecate I just think it's hilarious now, so I spend my time trolling and laughing about it in public. If there are people who want to defend their nonsense on stilts, they can do so in public while I laugh at them.
I find this rather effective because it gives the quiet compliant souls permission to join in the mockery or at least have a giggle, and it often enrages the nonsense on stilts brigade who hate to have the piss taken out of them.
