There are people, like myself, who often don't have a dog in the fight except that I look closely and skeptically at the tools and tactics being utilized and frequently ask myself: "Ok, but what if this were used in another way, or by the opposite side?"

Particularly when I started to see how ubiquitous the weaoponization of anger has become in the modern era.
