It's not being close minded or ignorant at all. For example, when I grab a Coke, I want to drink a Coke. I don't want to open it up and find someone has switched it with Sprite, Apple Juice, or Vodka. Even though I like to drink all those things, at that very moment I want what I CHOOSE to drink. Forcing your views down someone else's throat just because you have a captive audience is BS. It's a bait and switch. You are also just assuming no one is as "well informed" as you are. Ignorance is the willful neglect to seek knowledge. I choose to seek out news and political commentary on my own time (not when I'm on the KLF list). If I didn't then I would be ignorant. Some people will never do this and want to remain ignorant. That's just the way it is. High-jacking this list and assuming that we are ignorant and/or eager to read SPAM is naïve, ideological, and insulting.
