I wouldn't say those are the traits of an "average" American. But there are a handful like that.
What I think this board has going for it is a variety of opinions, from a variety of people.
On smaller/other forums you often get a bunch of fairly like minded people having the rhetorical equivalent of a circle jerk.
Here you get to try and explain to an actual angry Serb why you had to bomb his country. Stuff like that.
But yeah I don't get into every thread and some are functionally just flamebait, don't waste your time.
