It has now been scientifically established that activists have to be passionate. This is because intellectually they are fucking idiots! The study demonstrates that activists who hold themselves out as experts on a particular area of concern e.g.: animal rights, global warming, etc, don’t know what they are talking about. They substitute obstinacy to make up for this lack, of intelligence.
“Often wrong, but never uncertain” can be a mantra for the activist crowd. I’m pretty certain I’m right, but I could be wrong.
