>>It may surprise you to know that there are quite a few people in the community that think of you as an arrogant know-it-all. I am just trying to help you become a better person.
Ahem. Debating ideas by exchanging facts is a great way for all of us to test our assumptions. Tamar is providing some solid citations and making good points and isn't offended by vigorous counterpoint. If she wanted to go back to the comfortable echo chamber and avoid all this, she could. Easily.
FWIW, even when arguing vigorously against positions, I can see the value in them. For example, why does Trump send out mini-nukes via Twitter that rile the target and the MSM? If it's a big game of chicken, surely this is time for somebody to say to him "Rise Above It?"

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
