Yeah, you did hit a nerve. Does that show me to be a less than credible critic? Does a reaction of outrage to the outrageoous lessen me, or in fact affirm my humanity?

In fact, there is entirely too little outrage against the perfidy of your kind, "mate"; far too little outrage against the sickening denials and apologia you promulgate.

But I had a realization - outrage FEEDS you. You thrive on it because you mistakenly think a strong emotional reaction is a sign of irrationality or something, that you can exploit.

In the end we will all be hating each other, locked in our irreconcileable differences, and it will go nowhere. I think you are an asshole, you are convinced we are all assholes. I'll tell you what will fix this. Go work for Maharaji personally. We'll be best "mates" after that lovely experience, and you will be accutely embarassed of all your high-minded rhetoric in defense of Maharaji, and we will forgive you because we were once where you are now. We are just a different version of you after the inevitable and horrifying realizations begin to settle in. "Oh my gawd, my lord is a total drunk asshole!"

Of course the other possiblity is that you will spend so much time e-sniping ex-premies, that you will never get that close, and hence will save yourself the pain of disenchantment.
