If you’re firmly set upon your opinion, as is your right as an autonomous individual, then you’re just going to have to get used to the fact that other people won’t ever agree with you. You have no right to demand an agreement.

Bub, that cuts both ways. Why you feel the need to pretend otherwise and scream for approval is beyond me.

I don't know why you think I'm seeking approval. I'm pointing out that the bit about this move seeking unity is bullshit. It's fully abandoning the pursuit of unity, with dictatorial overtones as a replacement. You don't achieve unity by wielding the powers of government to silence your critics.
