It does to me, too. Appropriately.
As an example, I believe JBS and DJ are both -- in some areas -- absolute loons but, at the very least, the positions held are their own
and they possess the tiniest sliver of open-minded wisdom.
-5 is either a smart person pretending to be stupid or a stupid person pretending to be smart. Either way, nothing is added of value to this site or (I would surmise) to society by his existence. Further, as he cannot be personally eradicated from the gene pool without penalty, I feel comfortable removing his
lack of intellect from my world and sleep well at night realizing my vote(s) negate his. It doesn't bother me that others may peruse his intellectual garbage as its idiocy reveals itself in seconds (like Ross Perot with a graph). I just feel no need to personally subject myself to it.
IGNORE LIST
It works for me, until someone quotes his stupidity...
