128. I agree with you. Recently there was a thread shere the OP said they "smacked down"
some republicans in line at a store. The OP was totally sarcastic and angry according to their own description and most of the posts in response were congratulatory. All that does is keep it at a level of a team sport and send the person home with reinforced beliefs about the "other team". We're all one team with different views, especially when we're talking about the average citizen and not the corrupt politicians. They are their own team. But a better approach is to calmly explain your viewpoint, the truth, and let them come to the realization that what they've been hearing is not true. Perhaps they will change the channel or radio station and see that they have been fed a load of propaganda. Most of them really don't know that.
