I meant it when I said I like your posts. I would be surprised if you were not a real person. I never rule that possibility out these days but I respond only to people who are probably normal liberals.

But I was saying that op was flamebait. It starts off with a hyperbolic and lunatic tone. And never gets better. Impassioned liberals can be ott but not quite like this.

I don't know if it is old-school Freeping. You know - trying to see how many of the "Democrat-communists" take the bait and apparently a bunch of us did.

Or it could be something newer and creepier like assessing the "neuroticism" of people posting on liberal boards:
