re: blame the victim?

Me:
"You noticed a trend there, did you? True on both sides, if all you're going by is Google. Almost by definition, the outraged nuts generate more web space than a lot of other people. One hallmark of a tinfoil site on any part of the political spectrum is the enormous size of the pages."

Your response:
[Blame the victim?] Basically that's what you're saying when you characterize the results as produced by "outraged nuts [who] generate more web space than a lot of other people". But again it presupposes your biased view that the nuts are all on one side. Normalize for symmetry in nuttiness, and you still have a higher volume of email smears provoking such nuttiness.

I thought I was pretty clear about the universality of this behavior. Cripes, Robert, if you can't even follow me, who the hell's left?
