You have said that what you have written is not an effort to attack Canonical... language barrier... culture... and yadda yadda. You expect people reading you to give the benefit of the doubt. Ok, fair enough. However, you should also be able to give Mark the benefit of the doubt (that is with the tea party comment) that he intended to attack you. Your interpretation may be from the very same language barrier and cultural differences. It could very well be that in Mark's culture or among the people that he associates, comparing a group of people to the tea party is not much of an insult or an insult of all. If you are going to go that far [your reaction], then you could have done due diligence and try to find out what others outside of your circle thought of the "tea party".
It is possible that Mark may have meant it as an insult but it certainly not as bad as you and some others make it seem. [overreaction]
