Dealing with people, relationships, emotion and all that touchy feely stuff is not. This is part of why I am willing to throw away personal attack posts, posts which criticize other people by name. I am not good at it particularly. That is not the purpose of the site. That is not my purpose.I'd say that you're a weak "T" and your personal feelings and attachments get in the of your thinking and judgement at times. As a general rule, reds don't fling or apply false accusations freely with no concern of consequences. We are used to being around reddish people who frown on that stuff, Reds seek truth, red's gather in information and sift through information, learn and decide truth then use truth and stick with truth they've learned or the truth that they know of relating to them which blues don't seem to like or be able to emotionally accept and get upset or angry about reds. Red's aren't stupid people. Reds listen, but agreeing and accepting what blues have to say or believe is another matter.
I have learned that people with different world views are not likely to properly understand one another. Their perception will be off, their ideas of the other wrong. That does leave one open, no matter how sincerely one is attempting to pin someone else, with the impression of lying and slander. You mischaracterized me badly and continue to do so.
Even when one sticks with more abstract groups and mentions no names, it is a problem. Blues will badly misunderstand the motives of a red person, and vice versa. You get vile stereotypes more often that any real truth. If some blues will loudly proclaim what reds are driven by, they are often badly mistaken. Reds are little different. Neither group in general attempts to listen.
Anyway, that is were I am at.
