The best way to handle something you don't like, is not to make a show about it, but rather to ignore it. This is the way the "real world" works best. I downvoted flyingmoose's node (parent to this) because I disagree strongly with it. That's how I use downvoting in the Monastery: as feedback from a reader, both to the poster and to other readers. When someone makes a contention I think is wrong (and I think this contention is not only very wrong but also incredibly dangerous in a vast, global sense), I downvote. Since I have been vociferously advocating the notion that downvoting w/o posting a reply is undesirable, I wrote this brief reason up. I feel it would have been ok for me to have not done that in this case, but in cases where it is Perl code that is the gist of the node, I feel that giving a downvote w/o posting feedback is almost never the Right Thing to do.

-- Cynicism is not "cool" or "hip" or "intelligent". It's like Saddam Hussein's piss mixed with 004 grit and nitric acid. It's corrosive to everything it touches, destructive to human endeavors, foul and disgusting. And ultimately will eat away the insides of the person who nurtures it.
