I never claimed to be a victim of it. All I said what this mentality has driven me off from contributing/joining various groups because of the fear of these people existing in the ranks. The constantly changing rules of what is right, what is wrong, what words are "good" and "bad", political alignments, etc is all too much for me to even try to understand further than not understanding is a reason to attack me according to these kinds of people.

If I was attacked by it, I'd be a victim. I'm not a victim, but I exercise an abundance of caution (conversations as brief, formal, and public as possible and recorded when not) when dealing with this kind of person in the workplace and I'd rather not have to do even more of that in my free time. I already spend enough clock cycles trying to identify these people so I know who to avoid, monitor, or if I'm forced to talk to them arrange a proper meeting/recording so everything is in the clear. Perhaps I am being extreme, but if I lose my health insurance I die and I cannot reasonably let some punk take that away from me so easily.
