As someone who at times shares the same "flaw," I can say first handed that time does indeed remove a lot of that "fuel," especially when one frustratingly realizes that their own interpretation of events is not always what everyone else believes. Do I read your posts and truly believe you are fighting for the good of 5NL players everywhere? Not really. Perhaps as an unintended side benefit of your perception of your beliefs, but not directly.
Assuming you are telling the truth about leaving them as a customer then you are showing the convictions of your beliefs, which is pretty much all one can do as a consumer, and if others choose to follow or not follow - that is their choice, and they may be making the right choice for themselves even if they disagree with all or parts your sweeping theory on the situation. Flatly dismissing those who disagree as essentially "sheeple" shows the frustration of the situation, but does not really help with making a point.
Anyway, I agree how this whole thing was handled left a lot to be desired, but I will also be surprised if this end of the world as we know it is really that much different than the many others this industry has faced over the years.
