If one thinks that he is just being politically provocative then yes it is but if he’s in the middle of a manic phase or in the throes of some other mental illness or cognitive…

We need to stop this “I’m entitled to my opinion” non-sense. All opinions are not of value nor should they be respected. I know absolutely nothing about nuclear physics. My opinion on the topic of nuclear physics makes about as much sense as a soup sandwich.
