Of course Chris you have an excellent point. I would like to point out, however, that it is cluckish to deny long standing convention, such as labeling a turd a turd; for example. I do not consider it an insult to call a turd a turd when I see a turd or to note that it has a disagreeable odor. A cluck would likely accuse me of victimizing the turd. There is the intimidation factor as well; wherein cluckants tend toward attempts at thought supersession. In such cases, it is simply rational (not insulting) to call bull shat...right? Actually in the case of clucks the claim of insults are typically bull shat attempts to play victim for calculated effect. Still, I am willing to give it a look see.
