An oversight of the long view. Thats what led to this bonfire of vanities. Maybe it would have been different if that one guy just wasn't forced to listen, but he was. Because those juggernauts of jackass must be heard above all and everyone else. What's the fun in listening to yourself talk if no one is around to hear you? In the end they have only their mouths to blame. So look at them, hammer down, valve wide open, to the bitter end.
As they've stumbled on to something that their mouth can't say. A fitting end.
