All the way from Obozo down, down, down, to Evers; it's the Stuck Pig Squeal.
Give them credit: they recognize and understand 'silencing'.
What makes them whinge, whine, and squeal?
They thought that only they could play that game.
Schadenfreude: Breakfast of Champions!!!

Yes indeed. Sin makes you stupid. - Greg
The traditional thought is that sin not only makes us weak, but stupid.
Sin blunts conscience progressively over time—that is, diminishes our grasp of moral reality, impairing our ability to reason to proper moral conclusions.
Consequently, sin can (and often does) lead to greater sin, along with the failure to realize not just that we are sinning, but also how awful our sinning has become.
So many of us sinners (myself included) have consciously lived through this experience. We do, at first, feel the pangs of conscience when rejecting the right course of action. We fail to choose what we know is the right thing to do; we make, as Boethius called it, a moral miscalculation, because we engage in voluntary ignorance. Should I drive even though I’ve been drinking? gives way to the need to get home quickly.
