I didn't say he said they were inferior, I said he said they were so different that it's impossible to even communicate with them. You assumed.

And no, I don't look down on everyone else, but I certainly do look down on some. People who play zero sum games -- or worse. People who take from others with deception. Con artists. Scammers. Lots of corporations.

I don't think we are all the same. I don't think we are all equal.

I think we make choices and some people choose to make the world a better place and some people choose to make their world a better place at the expense of the world.

Instead of fighting against people like that, we reward them with national leadership positions and corporate leadership positions. We throw money at them, when we should throw them in jail.

I hope you take this as constructive criticism instead of an insult because I honestly mean it as such:

It would be much easier to take you seriously if you didn't italicize so many words. It just makes you sound angry and self-assured in your righteousness.

I don't take it as an insult. I am angry, self-assured and righteous. You made a statement of fact.

It's not what you say, it's how you say it. It's very difficult to get across tone in written speech. It's what italics are for.

If I say something to myself in my head as I am typing it or just before and the word is emphasized when I say it to myself, then I use italics.

That's what they are for.

No, I get that, and there are some subjects where I spend an unhealthy amount of my personal time debating with people on the internet. I catch myself in the same traps. I am careful to edit my comments before submitting them though, because I realize how it might be read by someone else. My point is your anger is apparent, and it takes away from your credibility.

Anyway, how you present yourself is clearly your decision. I was just trying to add some perspective.

Cheers.
