Is the <sarcasm> tags part of a Linux specific RFC for HTTP?

And for all you I-hate-top-posting, this-is-a-Linux-list ...
 
What does any of this have to do with Linux?  I'm going to banish all of you from my inbox.  By the way, how do I make my particular email client to that?  This is a Linux list and needs to be moderated so totally unrelated stuff can't be posted.  I'm going to throw a fit now.
 
Oh, Hitler and Nazis.

If you had no input into why something happened, then you really can't
complain about it. That's pretty straight forward. If your wife goes
out to buy a car, asks your opinion which you do not give to her and she
buys something you hate, you really can't say anything because she asked
your opinion, your ignored her request and bought the car. She made the
decision that it was something she wanted because you didn't provide any
input. If she had asked your input and you said you hated it and she
bought the car anyway, then you can say something about it.

Same with voting on an issue. If you choose not to vote and a decision
is made based on voting that you decided not to participate in then you
can not complain about the outcome of the decision that was voted on
which you decided to be ignorant (the act or process of ignoring.)
