And what do you do when you see two political-type posts from one person in which each of the speakers quoted in the posts wants you to feel an emotion that is *opposed* to the emotion advocated by the other speaker? If you're Barry, the answer is obvious. You respond to the post you think offers you the best chance of excoriating the poster and completely ignore the other. What emotion do you imagine Barry wants you to feel after reading *his* post?
