I am just saddened that people settle for reactionary solutions when visionary solutions based upon science and humanity would serve us much better. The word choice of "misfit" is diagnostic. To what do we not fit - your opinionated personal standards and beliefs? I'm simply against extremism.

Reactionary - n.
Characterized by reaction, especially opposition to progress or liberalism

Conservative - n.
1. Favoring traditional views and values; tending to oppose change
