.... the lines of your Opening Post, seem reminiscent to me, of the common rightwing personality of these times.

again: sorry. didn't mean to make light of your post, or anything like that. just to reiterate that -- people (on both the right & left peripheries; myself included) need to keep a sharper eye on themselves, to analyze the sources of their convictions & ideologies, on an ongoing basis. which would be a 'Buddhist' thing to do as well -- with regard to one's understanding; 'Samma Ditthie', if you will & if i may venture to use the term.

quite a thought-provoking post of yours.
