Say it to my face next time. It is a lot more impressive compared to mindreading.

I’ve said plenty “to your face” and all you see me as is another anonymous with a preset of opinions you’re already set on disagreeing with. You don’t give me the benefit of even having a face. But you expect it from others? Next time you see me , ask something about me and get to know me.

Looks cowardly when you dont say it directly to someone. No surprise an englightened centralist would use that method.
Takes the slightest bit of courage to study an issue and stand by a value judgement. Takes no courage to claim to be above it.
