    I don’t understand. You said you weren’t afraid to admit anything you honestly believe. You’ve already admitted to bigotry against enlisted soldiers. What’s stopping you here? The reason that makes sense to me is “fear”, but you’ve just said that you’re not afraid, so nothing you’re saying makes sense.

    I’m done

    Thanks for giving me the last word. I don’t have to build up a “bad guy” persona for you. Why do you think it is that, in America, when you learn that a person is strongly against gun control, insisting it’s their inalienable right to own guns, you have a very good chance of guessing what they think about abortion, or about immigration, or about gender roles? It’s because many of these opinions are rooted in some sort of antisocial fear of “others”, while the remaining opinions are simply the opinions of your chosen groups. You’re afraid of standing out against your groups. It’s all irrational fear, but people with your beliefs have the gall to think it’s intellect.

    You have already chosen a group of people that you think you’re superior to. Your true fascist beliefs are leaking through. You are, by your own admissions, the bad guy. I just wanted you to list your other fear-based bigoted opinions so that anybody else who comes across this thread will be left with no doubt about it. But it seems that you’re too afraid to admit all of your true beliefs. Hmm… It seems like I do understand, after all. Take it easy, and try to remember. These people you hate and fear, they’re people, too.
