Hey, lurking DUmmies. I have two words for you:
Unintended consequences.
You know, not just with the primitives on Skins's island, but with Democrats, liberals, and primitives in real life--they don't believe that. They believe things have only the consequences they wish them to have.
It'd be funnier if, when something happens, it occurs to them--unintended or unanticipated consequences happen--but they don't believe such a phenomenon exists, so it doesn't occur to them.
In which case it's just merely pathetic, showing what intellectual dwarves and midgets they are.
