You know, there is a world if difference between mindless abuse and abusing the mindless.

As you seem to be so wedded to absurdity, how can anyone act otherwise? You won't listen to reason, you infuriate people by saying disagreement with you makes them. "Wrong" and continually find sympathetic quotes rather use your intelligence and give us a Keith analysis. When someone states their own view, you want to know where they got it from. That alone sums you up.

I wouldn't call it abuse, I'd say people are being ultimately kind.
