It amazes me how much you don't get the point.

We do not need people telling us what to do.  (Many of us have day jobs
for that.)

If someone says "I am going to do X", a response of "No, you should do
Y instead, but I can't be bothered to help" is going to get you mocked.

The correct response is "I think Y would be better, and I am going to do
it.  Would you like to help?"

If you can't honestly include the "I do", I hope you won't send your
message to noisebridge-discuss.  You're part of the problem.  Become
part of the solution instead.

I'd rather have one person doing something -- even if poorly, and even
if it's not the solution I would have chosen -- than a hundred people
telling each other what to do.

HTH, HAND.
