Really, I don't mind being called delusional. I don't mind being called a sheep (which I was - since I believe in left wing media bias I must be one of the sheep being fed). I just know that when I have, in the past, made broad generalizations about democrats or people who believe something I have been chastized (not officially mind you, but by others who are offended at my generalizations).
Because of how often I felt this was happening, I decided to start calling others on generalizations they posted, or using names such a delusional (which JW was calling me, or rather a group of people of which I am a member - it wasn't ISM), which really isn't any different than being called arrogant. Whether we want to discuss the admittedly wrong thing I said to 3894 or not, even calling Obama elitist or arrogant, whom last I checked was not a member of the LoT, was the cause of much outrage.
Name calling or generalizations are easy to defend if you agree with them. If you disagree then they are just name calling or generalizations.
