I think what upsets Kuan here the most is the hypocrisy, though. There are a few Amarr who continuously cry about how they just want "good fights" and how the Minmatar are always spoiling them, yadda yadda. The thing to take out of this (or any of the prior incidents) is to simply stop believing pathetic Amarrian propaganda.
Hypocrisy is the second Amarrian virtue, right after hubris.
Sadik, come on lad.
Propaganda comes from both sides continually and the whole point behind it is that it's biased, often exaggerated (though usually based on truth) and is never worth believing. That's what makes it propaganda and not information.
I could also point out the delightful irony of complaining about hypocrisy and hubris while demonstrating both yourself but I won't.
Oh wait...

Mind pointing out where you see either of those in my post?
'Course.
You started your post by telling one Amarrian that you could respond to her obviously propagated statement with your own but that doing so would only lead to another petulant, finger-pointing and shouting session. Then immediately turned around and said that the only thing that should be taken from this entire thread was that everyone should stop believing "pathetic Amarrian propaganda." Which, by the way, is a form of propaganda in which you take an opportunity to discredit another's propaganda and expand it to insert your own into your counter argument.
Hubris was demonstrated when you decided to try and walk the moral high ground by stating that all Amarrians value hubris and hypocrisy as their highest virtues. A blanket judgment on an entire people from a critical standpoint is always a prideful judgment because it requires that you consider yourself beyond reproach in those regards.
Intended or not, you demonstrated both in your response.

I think you interpret more into my post than there is.
Now that may very well be the case. If so, then my misjudgment of your presentation reflects my own failures, nay?

I see now, valid explanations and clarifications. It is I who has misjudged you, Sadik.
As for the logic you refer to at the last, when one seeks to judge another they must first examine themselves, for the measure with which they judge another will be measured against them. Therefore, to judge another truthfully, you must be beyond reproach in the areas you are judging lest you be found wanting yourself and your judgment colored with hypocrisy.
Clearly a misjudgment on my part of your intentions and character, I retract it in error.
