I don't get it. You say you dislike "the divisiveness that goes along with
Tom's messages (obviously)" yet you partake in that same divisiveness on a
regular basis. Not only do you feel free to insult Tom but today you feel
free to insult an entire group of people you haven't met in order to make
some "point." Perhaps you think "Intoleristas unfortunately blindly follow
Tom Hansen" is not an insult to a group of people. You are mistaken.

For the record, I think disagreement is healthy. What do you do for a
living? I teach philosophy at a public institution. It is impossible for me
to do anything job related without encountering disagreement. Insults in a
public venue, on the other hand, are a waste of time, which is why you and
I are the only ones having this discussion. No one else cares. Well, we
were having this discussion until now. Keep talking to yourself if it
helps. I'm out.
