User:Suigetsu/Wikipedia is not the Matrix

This page in a nutshell:

The admins are not out to get you. It's not a capitalist plot. The article got merged, or the edit got reverted, or the AfD succeeded, or whatever. Just get over it, already.

Administrators are editors just like you. Sure, their user pages are fancier than yours, and their edits have less OR and bullshit in them, and they have more permissions than you, but they still must abide by Wikipedia policies, and as such, very rarely will an admin be abusing his powers to merge some dumb anime article, or delete some stupid picture of a singer, or whatever. Even if an admin is acting against your will, you should assume good faith and trust that they are doing their best to improve the encyclopedia, because Wikipedia is not the Matrix.

What I'm driving at is that even when an admin comes in and tells you that your favorite anime character's article has to be merged because it's not notable, you should not bitch up a storm, become all emo about it, or threaten to report him to ArbCom for misusing his powers. In addition to this, a lot of people tend to edit their userpages with stupid rants about how much they hate deletionist policies. Said rants tend to have awful punctuation matched only by their equally bad grammar, something that makes their writer look like a dick. Instead of doing any of this, a simpler solution is to just shut the fuck up.

Plus, he's a goddamn administrator. Bitch too much, and you'll just get into incivility and he'll block your dumb ass for being a dick.
