I can think of virtually no better example to prove my point than the contents of this exchange.

So thank you for helping me to demonstrate to everyone else in this thread that speaking from anger, constructing and attacking the flimsiest of straw men, and repeatedly misconstruing a sympathetic counterparty's points only serves to push away the people you might hope to see your point of view.

I genuinely hope it was satisfying for you, because that's about the only positive outcome that's likely to arise for you out of this.

Try reading what I am saying without projecting anger into it. Just because it's not to your liking doesn't mean it's angry.

Also - there is nothing you have said that indicates you are a sympathetic counterparty. How do you expect us to know that? Therein lies the problem.
