&gt; perhaps you were being extremely rude as a rhetorical device<p>I was and I&#x27;m ambivalently sorry about it. Assuming I&#x27;m the type of perpetually angry person who has experience with people using unnecessary condescension to reel them in... those were some pretty typical reactionary comments. There <i>is</i> another form of victim emerging out there and I am concerned about it. We can be <i>more</i> tolerant than he was being. I was trolling for it...<p>Entirely invalidating someones opinion because they&#x27;re angry is <i>not</i> acceptable in my opinion. I sort&#x27;ve still think it was worth the example. But we can agree to disagree. It&#x27;s too bad he deleted his comment. It was <i>perfect</i>.
