When I heard you tear into Adam for being bigoted, I was shocked. Adam annoys me at times, but I’ve never heard even the least hint of bigotry from him. When you added that you hadn’t listened to the podcast that triggered your accusations my hair stood on end. He well deserved the apology. However you both may have missed what really triggered the outburst. People do have “unreasonable” over-the-top emotional outbursts at times when suffering from grief. The reaction appeared to be too intense because it wasn’t driven by the immediate event, but by the scale of the terrible recent loss. It takes 2 years, not 2 months, to recover.

One of the things that stood out for me was that it’s a a “happy chance if we, being changed, continue to love a changed person.”

This is a good explanation of why some friendships just sort of peter out, too…it’s not that you dislike the other person, or vice versa. You just grow apart. Always used to make me so sad…but I’ve run across old friends later and bonded again in a different way over the things we still have in common…

Then I realized that there IS a master plan, and it’s not always sinister…

If you just targeted Madge’s hated more that would be good, but Madge is a fictional character so CANNOT be taken seriously. Ye what Madge says reflects on you.

Stop chasing issues, this comes across badly as Madge seems to hate everything.

The point of Madge is not to be a political leader. All the crazy ranting is there to make us think. When you hear statements and ideas that are severe and a little over the top, they are there to make you (us) kind of take stock of what we really do believe and do stand for.
