that's as good as it gets for testosterone friendly groups. But it
doesn't answer the question of why so much effort and ego goes into
the political stuff.(?)

Meaculpa

When youi find the answer to this please let me know

And if he does......how will you know?

Perhaps the flame wars on ROFF answer your question re political feud and
others as a microcosm

Flame wars? In ROFF? God bless the children and the idiots.

They are definitely ego related

Ego? In ROFF?

An isolated group w/ similar interests and there are ridiculous wars

Which someone with your acumen would never be tricked into
participating in.......right?

I guess that Humans fight politically for ego & testosterone driven
ideals???

No. They fight for stupidity.

In the real world

Oh? You've visited?

*- Sometimes they kill ea other and a whole lot of effort, lives *$$$ ,ego
*and testerone is devoted and spent on these real wars

Funny no one but you has noticed till now, huh?

It's nuts

Nah. It's the ebb and flow of life. It's doing the right thing
because you know it's right.....cuz somebody said so. It's the
inability to refrain from reading and responding to what you loath in
yourself. It's a superiority that manifests itself in reviling what
one disagrees with and wishing it would go away.....so that one could
ignore it.....which one can't.

*So again if you get the answer please lemme' know

And how will you know when someone lets you know?

Mea culpa tambien
