Perhaps you are not trying to cause drama. However, I believe you are trying to USE it - because it helps your cause. Ideologues are disturbing to me precisely because the ends almost always justify the means to them, and to that degree I have a problem with you.
Also, I feel, you are prone to assuming Big Bad Conspiracy and strong ideological motivation in others.
I know how fashionable it is to attack me, but go look at the RFC and you'll see almost everyone else regards the "secret list" revelation as every bit as problematic and dramatic as I do.
A lovely case of self-selected sample, I think.
