The tone of personal attack and dismissiveness started with you, and you know it. All I did was point out the fact that your rhetoric was not really designed to make anyone sympathetic towards your point of view, which I maintain to be true, and which you continue to make even more apparent with each post you make.

You didn't join me in your disdain of Chan's involvement with De Beers, instead you thought you try and be funny.
You're a vegetarian that cares about animal rights yet you have to be shamed into acknowledging your ignorance and apathy concering human rights abuses.
I see the two, like all things, as very related.
And you, like so many others, have the cart before the horse. You're not a realist as you described yourself earlier. What you keep demonstrating is that you are a deluded cause-and-effect Cartesian thinker.
