What these "freedom fighters" want is the rush of dropping a rhetorical bomb in mixed company. They want the gasps, the outrage, the furious rebuttals. They want to feel like they're speaking truth to power, challenging the status quo, waking up the "sheeple." But you can't do that when you're surrounded by people who already “think” (and I use that word very fucking loosely) like you.
