  The reason you have such problems seeing the harm is that you have made
  up your mind long ago that it would be abusrd to want to do harm and that
  nobody would do the absurd, but this is wrong.  Such is the nature of the
  problem that nutcases _do_ what seemingly normal people think is absurd.
