Of course it's your style, and the fact you are pointing stuff out (with your finger shoved into our face), that's more important than what you are saying. When someone repeats the same crap as often as you do, as many times as you have, in the same tone you use, after a while it is just white noise. And when your bad manners are combined with the phenomenal arrogance that you expect us to absorb this abuse, drop everything we are doing, and pay close attention to your harangues, what else can you expect?

TB, we are not under any obligation to do so. Your presence is simply not all that intimidating. You have chosen to come here and dump your ideological load on us, you have made this forum your private personal battleground and soapbox, to satisfy your needs and expectations, because it makes you feel so good and superior, and you expect us to be polite and listen carefully, nod our heads gravely and kneel for your blessing?

As an old cold warrior, you should have learned by now you don't go and invade someone's country and not expect them to resist. And believe me, you're not doing too well in the "winning hearts and minds" department either.

You know, I listen to more of your stuff than you may think, and I accept a lot more than you probably can imagine, but your arrogance and sense of superiority and self-importance completely undermines your message, and you are so myopic you haven't got a clue, do you? You really have convinced yourself people reject you only because they are afraid to accept the truth. You only keep coming here because you can't admit to yourself how badly you've bungled your attempt to persuade others.

And maybe people reject your message because they sense the contempt you have for them, and they realize someone who feels that way towards them can't be trusted to tell them the truth.
