“Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”

Also, I don’t think that the parent comment was being serious.

I was indeed not very serious, neither is the comment I would write in response to this:

-- Ah yes, Hanlon's razor, one of the CIA's more successful PsyOps. --

But then I was shocked to learn that the Razor's namesake Robert J. Hanlon actually did work for the CIA and now I dont know what to think.
