    mind-boggling variety of individualistic.....

    This is of course the direct result of there being a mind-boggling number of individuals!

    One of the parameters by which people vary is the degree to which they view society as a collection of individuals or individuals as members of society. They also vary in the level of detail they're willing to discern when creating groupings.

    I personnaly feel that the greatest danger we face in this country today is that our course grained groupings are causing us to alienate people we might otherwise find common cause with.

    By analogy, I can then argue that LWM's attacks on Bucky1 are like the US's attack on Iraq. Just as not all brown-skinned ME residants are Al-Qaeda, not all Lew Rockwell fans are closet fascists! (which isn't to say that some aren't....in both cases)
