I didn't claim they were equivalent.
Just because something is worse doesn't really excuse you from name calling at all.
I doubt you meant it "affectionately" here either.
And it's coming from you who claimed a long while ago that the antihelmet people didn't call people names. I established that wasn't true then and you established it again by your name calling.
