No we don't. The manner in which you present your ideas drives those of us who could agree with some of them away. The hate, the anger, the lack of humanity buries your ideas completely. If your intention here is to pull others to your position you are failing because you don't express your position in terms of what would be good and how it would be good, but only in reaction to the bad which is already obvious to all but the most ardent left-wing believers.

That thinking is silly....

I do not expect you or others to agree with me. Only to respect my decisions to express them, as contrary to what you think and believe. You can't even do that. I don't need to justify my thinking, philosophy or ideas about issues to you or anyone else. Accept them or reject them, I am cool with that... But you can't do that.

It's not your thinking or philosophy, it's the hand grenades that have an antisocial effect.
