How long before this gets swarmed by people opposing a change like the WP:V one?

The Ban Addicts all seem to think that their "bans" are having some sort of profound effect on the "banned" editor.

It's strange -- for me, being "banned" liberates me from having to try to conform to the ridiculously arbitrary and unfairly-applied rules that the Wikipediot elites have set up to further their control of information. I am more free to spread useful knowledge as a banned user than I was as a user "in good standing". And it pays for some rather nice dinners out once in a while. It's a win-win. The only ones who look foolish, in the end, are the ones who stand by the "banned means banned" mantra, thinking that it's accomplished anything at all.
