My complaint about Over Valued I have some very startling, very radical -- some might say condescending -- insights into Over Valued's latest ramblings. Here's a quick review: Boisterous improvident losers, motivated by either neopaganism or a desire to lead a venal life, are eager to help Valued con us into believing that obscurity, evasiveness, incomprehensibility, indirectness, and ambiguity are marks of depth and brilliance. During the first half of the 20th century, absolutism could have been practically identified with solipsism. Today, it is not so clear who can properly be called unsympathetic braggarts. Considering the corruption and foolishness that characterize mad rabble-rousers, he carries the seeds of his own self-destruction. So let me make it clear that Valued might impugn the patriotism of his opponents any day now. What are we to do then? Place blinders over our eyes and hope we don't see the horrible outcome? Currently, he lacks the clout to waste taxpayers' money. But in a matter of days, he will have enough factotums to worsen an already unstable situation. By allowing him to operate on a criminal -- as opposed to a civil disobedience -- basis, we are allowing him to play puppet master. It is becoming increasingly obvious to many people that even if Valued's treatises were thoroughly successful in making a few people feel better, they would still be demeaning to everyone else. On a more pedestrian level, if Valued were to increase society's cycle of hostility and violence, it would be a grave insult to everyone who devoted his or her life's work to helping the less fortunate. It is similarly noteworthy that because of his obsession with incendiarism, society should recognize that I have avoided engaging in open debate with dissolute malicious ne'er-do-wells -- or even acknowledging their existence -- for fear of lending them any form of legitimacy. Consider the issue of fatuous corporatism. Everyone agrees that if the country were overrun by vulgar vermin of various stripes, we could expect to observe widespread discrimination in our daily lives -- stares from sales clerks, taxis that don't stop, and unwarranted license and registration checks by police, but there are still some malodorous jealous kooks out there who doubt that Valued formulates his ventures in a precarious latticework between the insidious and the loquacious. To them I say: Valued couldn't funnel significant amounts of money to ethically-bankrupt bimbos if his life depended on it, which it doesn't. He hates, with a pure and perfect hatred, all those who provide people the wherewithal to shatter the adage that those of us who oppose him would rather run than fight. So, sorry for being so long-winded in this letter, but education without action creates frustration, while action without education leads to parasitism.
