And folks have hated congress since congress has been in existence.

Translation: you don't want government out of your lives.

Seriously, the size of government is a non-sequitur in this conversation. Whatever aspects of life you think are "necessary to intrude" upon, those are certainly aspects you would like to actually be carried out, and not be undermined by political paralysis, unless you're some strange sort of accelerationist that just wants the stack of cards to come falling down and the world to go to hell.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

It was not so much an insult as me responding in kind to your completely bad faith single-worded response, which added nothing to the conversation.

If that's considered "trolling", then I don't know what is.
