Given that I was defending this group from a potential disruptor who was against "fawning praise" and who feared "truthful yet painful posts" would get them booted.

You chose the wrong person to "correct" since I am fully supportive of Sanders, and any questioning of that and any cliques will result in my not wanting to belong to such groups. But thanks, anyway, I am sure that will be instructive in the future.
