Honestly, for me it’s none of those (well, I may be slightly disagreeable at times but only when I am right and I know it), but I am a well read conservative who lives in a blue state. So, like being a Christian in a pagan land, I have to KNOW what I believe and WHY I believe it. I almost always wary of the “hive mind”. Notice how all of us can converse at length about a variety of subjects. But ask a “Hive Minder” to defend their position, and they break down very quickly. They just haven’t thought about it much. They rely on others to tell them what to think.
