"There’s a joke that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing
over and over but expecting a different result. If I push the button
enough something different might happen. Sometimes you can just tell
someone that what they’re doing is dumb and they’ll stop. Or explain
that doing that same thing is hurting someone. But other people, the
people you should avoid, just keep pushing the button over and over
again. There’s a line where stupidity becomes insanity, but it can also
turn to malice. Buttons are fine. But people are not.
Grieving people can be angry people. Our country has already been
overflowing with anger towards the government. Now we’ve added
frustration, grief, despair. One small push of the button and the
populace explodes."
