I don't get it. You want us to work with those who refuse to 'punish' foolishness but who aren't fools themselves to, presumably, fight against foolishness. All right, I can see the sense in that.
Why does it follow that we should censor ourselves when dealing with these non-foolish foolishness enablers? Why can't we work with them and show our disapproval of their enabling?
Because in human society, voicing your disapproval is a form of punishment, which people will react badly to, and will make it hard to work with them.
