That has been most people's reaction. Many just like reading the abuse thrown at Bennett, but not once has anyone said anything positive about Bennett or his opinions. No one signs the petition because, after all, we tend to be a hugely cynical bunch. But unless we try something, slashdot will keep posting his crap and everyone will keep complaining. Slashdot won't do anything because there's no coordinated effort to actually tell them he sucks and they should get rid of his shit. So he keeps posting crap, slashdot puts it up, everyone tells him to go stuff a dick in his ass and the circle remains unbroken and keeps repeating multiple times per month.
So yes, moveon.org sucks, yes we are all cynical and don't believe the petition will do anything, and even if everyone who complains about him were to sign up, there's no reason to believe slashdot would do anything about it. But at least it's an attempt to get something done, which is more than anyone in any of bennett's posts has done...
