    Not when irrational emotions and cabalistic alliances rule, and people
    ignore the obfuscations and deceptions of their droogies whilst claiming
    nonexistent obfuscations and deceptions on the part of those on their
    enemies list - as is already manifestly happening onlist.

    Perhaps you would be taken more seriously in future if you used fewer
    adjectives? Can emotion be other than irrational? (This may be a discussion
    for another thread, which I wouldn't mind continuing) Cabalistic? Enemies?
    Maybe remove the adjectives *AND* the words specifically chosen to incite
    emotion, especially after having condemned the use of emotion earlier in the
    sentence and the paragraph.

    The tone of this statement feels to me like spittle, venom, unhappiness. I
    cringed when I read it. These are the emotions I felt. Other things on the
    list, when I read them, make me smile or giggle. And the majority of what I
    read on the list makes me think, and makes me do so as rationally as I know
    how. Please think about that.
