My biggest problem has been with people center of right who don't identify as righties, even though they don't understand it's a matter of degree, it's really a matter of degree when you get closest to the center. I identify more left, but can still stick to the center, otherwise I wouldn't be able to tolerate people like that. It's like these people have no sense of self-awareness. Be centrist, sure, but at least be honest about why way you "lean," whether left or right. That's all I ask.

it has nothing to do with tolerance. That's some new age Internet Mumbo Jumbo...
If i can tolerate people who want turn humanity into the Borg does not mean my position on the capitalism vs socialism spectrum changes.
I still think Fuzzy contributed something worthwhile to this forum, and I'm going to fucking bloody well miss him now he's gone.

He sure did contribute to this forum. More than some me included but absolutely more than those being petty and hating him for not sharing they views.

When his views require the elimination of mine...
I'll give Fuzzy the respect of noting that when it was pointed out to him that he was objectively wrong, he admitted it. Not everybody does that.
I disliked him because he did not share my views that racism and sexism are wrong, and that arguing that people are evil because of what he decided their secret motives must be is dishonest. If that is being petty for him not sharing my views, I'm guilty of being petty.
Fuzzy was not worthless, but his signal to noise ratio was really low. However, if he has now found a way to contribute in a way people actually find worth paying him for, then, sincerely, good for him.
If Fuzzy ever came back from an anomalous-hiatus, he has to tell it on video on the forum while wearing a furry costume where he has been and if his sanity may betray him like that Ohio Senator 8 years ago who allowed 2 rival crack gangs to blow up a near finished construction site for no reason.
But overall, I can see what you mean since I'm new...no scratch that for "see what" since playing and making amazing Strategy games on Black Sheep Gaming and Newgrounds allowed me to see various amount of patterns we as a species continuously re-use(i.e Allowing corrupt high-officials to run human-slave rings),however Fuzzy was trying to speak of one advantage we could use to break the cycle; Being Chaotic in the side of good.
Chaos is not always what you may all think,yes it is the predecessor of creation but no it is not evil, chaos is what it means to be unpredictable: the opposite of order, that is ad-heading to strong strict values while abandoning a previous action. Being evil is mearly a moral or (im)practical action that can cause harm to others. What you label the Borg as Evil, yes; Chaotic, think again brick-heads!(Answer is Order Evil due to their hard thinking of logic they are willing to risk existence to become an idea, the 3rd most powerful action in creation.)
You can all understand what good is but for humanity to be Order-Good, hahahaha; I cannot comprehend that foundation stupidity considering we're still at "Tribal" socio-logical level, the lowest of all social arts.
No, in context of basic human studies, we are Chaotic-Neutral, with the basis of becoming good or evil. Being unpredictable is passion for doing the impossible while adapting over thing that fundamentally cannot be beaten, like the Invasion of Area 51, or in the future provoking cosmic powers to kill us but come back from existence somehow.
Anyway, if Fuzzy ever comes back, he will have to wear an antro-cat or horse costume for a video apology so he can be properly forgiven.
Do not pity a Slave for the Slave-Lord, but hear the power of what Chaos can be.
All Beings bow before the children of he who bound their flesh by their words.
Fall and wail, all flesh, bone, soul,& power is a servant to Yun-man, the First Slave-Lord.
