That's not helpful at mutliple levels. First, it is extremely easy to fall into a death spiral when one quickly labels those who disagree with you to be "unimportant and boring". Second, given the techie orientation of Slashdot, it is exactly the sort of people that one concerned about these sorts of things should be trying to convince. So at minimum, one should read what they have to say, so one knows what to expect and how to respond in a way that explains the concerns.
