Like in a really obvious way that only people trying to give you the benefit of the doubt could possibly ignore.

That's pretty rich coming from someone that for all intents and purposes is a complete nihilist. You don't give a **** about science or other people's perspectives anyway. Death to America or bust, right? What's the point of getting offended personally when it isn't even about you?

We already established that Bats is a pseudo nihilist. He cares. He cares big time.

There will be a "status quo" when all is said and done, but it won't be whatever they think it is.

I thought he was just a nihilist who deeply despised his own humanity, but that makes more sense.

This is really the most painful part of it all

Out of all the things I’ve witnessed as an American this point has left me more disillusioned than anything else I’ve ever seen.

My hate for these people is killing me.

Bat is really too thoughtful to relentlessly bang the death to America drum constantly if even at all. That streamlined hatred for this place is almost entirely my domain alone.

12 is too young. Even I think that’s gross.
