Bhikkus, there are these four kinds of shitposts to be found in the world. What four? There is the shitpost which is well-composed and receives replies. There is the shitpost which is ill-composed and receives replies. There is the shitpost which is well composed and does not receive replies. There is the shitpost which is ill-composed and does not receive replies.
Bhikkus, suppose an undiscerning Brahmin or renunciate were to go wandering in search of alms. There on the road he would come across poisonous fruit. He would think to himself, "let me sate my craving by eating this fruit," and in doing so he would come to death or deadly suffering. Why is that? Because he has not discerned its nature, I say.
[Now] suppose a discerning Brahmin or renunciate were to go wandering in search of alms. There on the road he would come across poisonous fruit. He would not think to himself, "let me sate my craving by eating this fruit," and in doing so he would not come to death or deadly suffering. Why is that? Because he has discerned its nature, I say.
Just so, bhikkus, when you come across divisive and harsh shitposts on Magadhan tapestry forums, do not think to yourself "I will sate my craving by replying to this post."
That is what the Bhagava said. Pleased, the bhikkus delighted in the Bhagava's words.
