When a differing opinion does not set just right, such posters drag out and sling the usual tired old phrases at the "offending" poster -- like, "Must be jealous." -- "Must have a crappy personality." "Must not get along with anybody." -- "Must have a hidden agenda." -- "Must not be as smart as me." On and on it goes. Predictable as can be.

The need to control the narrative must be rather exhausting. It is certainly transparent. I guess there are those who are just wired like that.

Oh well, it's all theater -- getting awfully formulaic though.
Excellent observation, thank you!
