    It's a habit of mine to respond with an ironic or dismissive comeback on such a topic, Ben. Not this time. Political stances and actions are bleeding over into our societal norms and responsibilities. We are now seeing people copying extreme political behavior (yes, pointing at you, Kari Lake). Some of our citizens will follow then right over a cliff (insert a Lemming analogy).

    I'm trying to come up with a rebuttal----but it hasn't come to me as yet

    "Political extremism involves two prime ingredients: an excessively simple diagnosis of the world's ills, and a conviction that there are identifiable villains back of it all." ---John W. Gardner

    I've noticed that and it's very irritating

    Not my intent. What I can do is try to avert doing so.
