    Au contraire, my friend. Becoming a Red Hot Pawn Member and utilizing its services is not a right of passage but a privilege.

    It's neither, it is a transaction. You seem to romanticise this site for some reason.

    An aberration which occurs when self justification replaces acceptance
    of authority and/or when raw emotion replaces rational thought.

    "Thumbing down" any forum post hardly qualifies as "hate" imo. At most it represents a muted nonverbal vanilla version of dislike. Few if any posters are timid and/or cowardly enough to withhold the expression of their disapproval in cyberspace ink. Those who takes them seriously may have issues with self esteem. Why not respond with a compassionate smile?
    Surely you somehow attributing use of the thumbs down feature to cowardice ~ something I've heard you claim repeatedly ~ is you taking "Thumbing down" seriously to a degree unmatched by anyone else in this community?

    Are you "respecting my opinion", or are you a saying my opinion is an aberration which occurs when self justification replaces acceptance of authority and/or when raw emotion replaces rational thought?

    "As always, I respect your opinion." These six words literally convey my sentiment.

    So what is the passage "An aberration which occurs when self justification replaces acceptance of authority and/or when raw emotion replaces rational thought" doing in your reply to me then?
