After hanging around SI for some time and observing the written personalities on these boards, I've noticed that there are two basic types of people here. Namely, weak weasels and solid citizens.

Weak weasels specialize in mistruths and exaggeration. They cannot admit fault. They are personally disingenuous and lack self confidence. They compound their mistruths with equivocation of facts and conspiracy theories. When cornered, they lash out and leave.

OTOH, the solid citizens, whether from the left or the right, aim for fairness, accuracy and substantiation. They are self confident and comfortable with their beliefs. They can admit error, even if it means deflating their egos a bit. They are individuals and proud of it.

It is easy to see which people fit into each category.
