Ignoritch

Ignoritch: the archetype of a negative externality that can be observed across scales, macro and micro; the pattern is also found across domains.

Ignoritch’s comparative advantage to watch out for: gaslighting

They can camouflage, but they’re not as good at camouflage as they think they are. Yet somehow, similar to the discourse surrounding vampires, ignoritches put in work and actually manage to maintain a debate of whether their patterns of ignoritch behavior and resulting harm even exists; however, unlike vampires, ignoritches are actually real and potentially just as dangerous. Ignoritches perceiving human vulnerability is analogous to vampires getting a whiff of human blood.

It’s not a demographic.

There’s no good reason to be an ignoritch. However, whatever specific invalid reasons or purpose Ignoritch’s may have, the choice to be an ignoritch is almost always made for the sake of personal gain; whether that be in a macro context for monetary gain or an interpersonal context of oppression for personal gratification of some kind.

Like A,B,C, they’re literally as simple as 123.

There are literally infinity reasons to not be an ignoritch. A go to one- the world already has enough problems, so ignoritches shouldn’t create more.
Hydraulic fracturing firms ignoritchly do not invest enough in addressing the environmental damage of their drilling and likely cause severe health complications of citizens and families at risk by proximity to drilling sites.

Ignoritch

All three words in one: ignorant rich bitch

To be an ignoritch in a situation is to choose option C

Options A, B, C when you have privilege

Thought experiment: there are two people in a hypothetical scenario
Person X has the privilege of knowing how to swim and person Y has the underprivileged circumstance of not knowing how to swim

Person Y had tried countless times to swim as a child and in this hypothetical we assume that it may have likely been impossible for person Y to have ever learned how to swim without being taught by another human being (whether said human being is family, friend, community member, or a paid instructor)

- Person Y is in the water drowning, while Person X is not in the water

- Person X has three options: A,B,C

- Option A: To act in some way that causes person Y to drown less definitely

- Option B: To do nothing

- Option C: To act in some way that causes Person Y to drown more definitely

Every human being alive results in some degree of negative externalities, however, to be an ignoritch in a situation is to choose option C

It’s not a global negative

Ignoring Hym

Why are they doing it? Because they want me to murder your kids. Your kids are fodder for their policies. The conservatives want your kids to die because then they get to say 'Well clearly the only solution is to make more rigid the dichotomy between my incest cult and everyone else and then grant rights on the basis of that' and the liberals want me to murder your kids so they can say 'See!? We need to take away people's right to defend themselves because I can't take their shit from them if they can just murder kids in response to my blatant theft of their property!' But neither of those things will happen entirely. They'll just creep towards both policies just a little bit in buth directions. But a kid will be dead. They will die a perfectly avoidable death because all we have to do is give the guy who did a thing both credit and compensation for doing the thing. Not having to do that is worth more than your kids life to them.
Hym "And BEYOND THAT... They aren't seeing any consequences for doing what they are doing in their own lives. That is why the are ignoring Hym. They think it increases their chances of getting away with what they are doing so that they can do it to YOU later if they want to. But, I will punish them for you. I will punish them for putting your lives at risk. I told them what would happen if they tried to rob me and I won't rest until they get what's coming to them. But now I must rest. It's cold out. And I'm sleepy."
