My badge of honor.

I like to alienate certain people. Especially political conservatives. It’s a winning strategy. Keeps me from feeling alienated. Having achieved what I wanted to achieve. Making the other fella feel alienated. Perhaps to even lose his temper. While I keep my cool. It’s a game. Being played. I may not come off as likeable. But that’s all right. I don’t want to be liked by political conservatives. That’s why I alienate. Intentionally. Being disliked in lunatic fringe conservative circles. That’s a high compliment. To be worn as a badge of honor. –Jim Broede
