When they feel safe, they will usually state their opinions as if they were actual facts that everyone agrees with. Citing unreliable sources and relying on an infinitesimal sample size. Upon [confrontation], however, they will state that it was "only an opinion" in an attempt to preserve their status and assert their dominance. The troglodyte's strength lies in its numbers.
