Oh, but they are! While it is true there are conservative plants who play progressives, they are far and few between and usually expose themselves within a few hundred posts. The real issue is many can't seem to figure out how to disagree with someone without telling them what they think or feel. It is even more noticeable when it is to one of us because we are accustomed to being "told" how to feel about something or when we express an opinion how it is wrong because they (almost always a majority holder) know better than us.
It is the turning of the tables, where the aggressor becomes the victim, at least in their mind. Things will only get worse from here. I have seen it many times at this site. Take notice, too, of threads which are being hidden and those which are similar yet are not. It is pretty clear there are some, whether a majority or simply a very vocal minority, are being very clear; some of us need to know our place, and if we don't we shall be reminded of it! Thankfully, we have allies, otherwise our voices might be limited to a few loudmouthed individuals. We have to willing to stand up against those who may be like us in some respects (white, male, straight, Christian, able-bodied, with money (at least comfortable) when they disrespect those who are like us (AA, Latino, female, GLBT, Jewish, Muslim, atheist, differently abled (physically/mentally), and the poor).
