and buddy do I fucking hate it when people think that emotions are to be shunned and think some platitudes about tranquility are deep. There are no bad emotions only bad ways to deal with them. There is a reason people get angry in the face of injustice, embracing that anger gives one the motivation to act in an altruistic manner. It allows us to put the immediate and visible rewards for us aside and put oneself in harms way for the benefits of others.
The people that think that emotionless debate is the highest form of reason have not understood what debating others is for.
