You should be able to understand that distinction without me having to clarify it. But hey, at least you'll get a free like from Mikey.

I think several of you people have a hard time with differing opinions, and you get all hostile about it.

First of all, I have met with Mike in person. I like Mike. He's a naive dreamer who wants to be taken seriously as a thinker. Since he's only slightly above average in intelligence (not a dig), he depends heavily on the intelligencia to inform his positions. The problem is his ability to CRITICALLY think about topics is subpar, so he doesn't appropriately challenge the narrative coming out of those circles. Therefore, Mike is often duped by those he's trusting to educate him. You don't seem dissimilar to me.
