I'm ignoring your bloviating bullshit cause its already been refuted, despite it being a masquerade and irrelevant to the point of the topic at hand, all of which is nothing but an example of you desperately trying to distract from that topic.
And that topic is mail carriers not having the right to choose what gets delivered and what doesn't based on personal feels and opinions, and that doing such deserves to be punished to prevent others from doing the same.
Something that, when you deign to acknowledge the topic at all, have argued against, because you agree with them, and you want to let government employees do whatever undermining, institutional destroying bad behaviors they want as long as you agree with it... Which is the core component of most right wing arguments "I agree with it there for its right and moral"
People can confirm these are false statements by reading what we wrote. It is self-evident.
No where in my argument do I advocate for these positions. The decision should be based on empirical evidence.
