I've considered that, and I've concluded the majority of "jackals" are
that way because of my politics.

There's your mistake. There are many in this NG that share your political
views and they are not
routinely dumped on. Most of the time differing points of views are
discussed rationally, politely and with respect for one another. In your
case it is often very different. You tend to lump everybody who does not
subscribe to your POV together (with minor tolerances) and generally treat
those in disagreement with distain, punctuated with multiple insults.

It's not what you think, it's how you express it to others.

Whatever.

If that is agreement, then it is contrary to what you said earlier. But,
that could be a good thing. Maybe it's worth acting on?

Typical response. He can't debate it so he attempts to make it go away.
