I am not particularly emotional, but I am taking what precautions I can.
Why try to throw that word at me simply because you feel it is being used against you? In the real world, that's called passive aggression.
Note under my name the words “values driven”. To my way of understanding it, every human builds a model of how the world works. This shows up as a world view and values. It can be described in many other terms. Collectively, when many hold onto similar values, it might be called a culture, an ideology, or your preferred Groupthink. The two most common ones recently are associated with the colors red and blue.
I view values as a big part of S&H, which I think of as an explanation of how cultures change. It is not intended to be passive aggression, but I view it as a primary goal of the site.
People tend to aggressively defend their world views and values. To that end, it is common for people who have developed an ideology to be unable to perceive something that contradicts their ideology. Literally unable. This is hardly unique to you.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
